This is one cool tool.

I'll say! But I'm a little bit sorry that it's "European made" - wish we had produced it.

True, but better than "Made in China".

At the tip of the spear hesitation in procurement or not fielding new capabilities available equates to dead troops.

One of the drawbacks we have is that we are a real functional military. We are no $hit a war fighting force and have been since the mid 1860s. You won’t serve in the US military 20 years without a war and numerous smaller conflicts in between. We don’t have the luxury of just going without and having huge gaps in doctrinally required hardware like many our allies have had or have.
