Hopefully, Canada gets their act together and buys 18 of them as well. They were going to until we took them up on a dispute over the dumping (selling below cost) of their Bombardier medium range planes; but recently, they were found to be not guilty of it. Canada has aging F-18 Alpha and Bravo models held together with J-B Weld and duct tape LOL

Thanks for sharing LTC (Join to see). I concur with you that it would both benefit Saint Louis and Canada if Canada replaced their aging F-18 Alpha and Bravo models with 18 St. Louis-built Super Hornet.

I'm using voice text and I can't make Corrections. I will do it later when I'm not on my smartphone.

Rally Point is always good to have your opinion, sir. We're servicemen. If the message is clear, the results are near. LTC (Join to see)

Yes, sir LTC (Join to see) Diplomacy will go a long way to secure that defence contract between the two nations.

Leaked: New F-35 fighter jet beaten by F-16 from 1970s
Decades in the making, already the most expensive military project in history - and still US F-35 figher jet isn't ready. Some are now pointing to signs that...
It seems like all of this makes sense. I know I showed you this recently but maybe some of you haven't seen it yet. Just because it's from Russian television don't disregard it because this is an American engineer who helped design the F-16 and the A-10 Warthog discussing the disadvantage of the F-35.
Go to one minute and 20 seconds into the video and hear the American aircraft designer put down the F-35.

I am breaking up with my F-35 girlfriend because she is too heavy for me then. Great video, sir LTC (Join to see)

A1C Ian Williams - You have to work up to your Girlfriend. Maybe you will start with a C-130 or C-5A. I recall seeing at March AFB Air show in 2003 those pilots selling shirts that feature the C-5A Galaxy with the motto " SIZE DOES MATTER" ROFL
