Y’know, the USAF decided once what aircraft best met their requirements. Boeing went to their bought-and-paid-for politicians and had the competition overturned. This, after John McCain had their sweetheart lease deal overturned.
The USAF is going to get the tanker that the politicians want them to buy, their requirements be damned.
I was about to scold you by telling you that we should be buying an American Built airplane.
I then realised that Boeing Airplanes have 90% of their parts from all over the world. It would not be an American airplane after all.
I guess you have a point.
