EUROSATORY 2024 — Northrop Grumman plans to produce medium caliber ammunition inside Ukraine under a project bankrolled by Ukrainian dollars, a company official said today.

Although several European defense firms have committed to large-scale manufacturing programs inside Ukraine’s borders, Northrop’s coproduction agreement is the first publicly acknowledged deal between a US defense prime and the Ukrainian government for a manufacturing project inside Ukraine.

ummm...umnh....yo, this is one of those things that’s a quantum leap into the unbelievable, presented as if it’s just another thing.

Physicists postulate an infinite number of universes, each spun off by decisions living creatures make.

I, for one, deeply apologize for the decisions I personally have made that have landed us in THIS PARTICULAR alternate universe.

Ukrainian dollars, or US taxpayer dollars?

Ukraine does not have dollars; they have hryvnia.

I've never had hryvnia, but a friend did.

He said a couple of rounds of penicillin and it cleared right up.

“tax-dollar-sucking US defense contractor”???

I think one should consider what Northrop Grumman and other Aircraft companies contributed to our country/military in WWII and beyond...We couldn’t have done what we managed if they hadn’t produced planes ‘round the clock along with the weapons/ammo/vehicle/ships/food industries...There must be some FReepers who must have had some family members who worked for those companies and some may have even lost family members who made use of the products. Not a good time...but this country came through when it counted thanks to all those who got involved..
