If we buy AIRBUS (EADS is AIRBUS ) and ship the bulk of our military aerospace manufacturing offshore, we deserve to be the lackeys of France and China.

I think the major assembly work was going to be done in Alabama. Apparently the Air Force was told to keep changing the contract until Boeing got the job.

The core technology is the design and how to make the pieces, not how to follow assembly instructions.
