              Cancel the order.

              Europe has some good fighters. Besides you don’t want the ones with the Killswitch DRM on them.

              People get all bent outta shape with DRM on their steam games, but fighter jets? Throws billions in the air

                    They’re still made with american parts. Gripen - american engine, Eurofighter - american nav systems and targeting, Rafale - american electrical, hydraulic, targeting. Probably more that I’m forgetting about.

                    So they could go that route, but ultimately they’ll still be giving the US money and work (also for replacement parts/servicing, possibly training).
                    And then they’ll have to wait even longer to get their planes.

                    Their procurement game is dogshit, what can I say.

                    Also, lol

                    Construction of two new fighter squadron facilities in Cold Lake, Alta., and Bagotville, Que., to accommodate the F-35s is more than three years behind schedule and the Forces are facing a possible shortage of qualified pilots, the watchdog said Tuesday.

                        Don’t worry, they’ll tattoo your NFT on for you when they send you to the work camps.
