However did we get to this point in history that Airbust is building aircraft for the U.S. Military.....
I don’t know. Ask Boeing.
They partnered with Northrup-Grumman to build it here.
Well, it started with Boeing bribing Pentagon officials . . . .
Which airframe will it be based on?
because the KC-767 was a boondoggle.
I understand that some of our advanced technology in some of our fighter aircraft is produced in Japan.
Within ten years . . . U.S. military hardware built in Chinese PLA-owned factories ???
We got to this point thanks in large part to Boeing.
The "Lazy B" screwed themselves, their workers, their communities, and their country by committing a host of ethics violations (including industrial espionage and influence peddling).
So the next time you see an Airbus in US military livery, write a thank you note to Boeing.
“However did we get to this point in history that Airbust is building aircraft for the U.S. Military.....”
That’s right! We can tell anything we want, that it will be assembled in the US and will creates jobs here....
but after the food (provided to the US military by the French Sodexho), the tires (Michelin) or the Helicopters (EADS again) .... THAT HURTS A LOT!!!
