This seeming story is bunk - there is something going on under the covers.
With the fall of Baghdad, this is the worst time to ground anything. Same for F-35’s over ejection seats a mere few weeks ago.
bidAn is being maneuvered into the 2022 version of Afghanistan and Kabul. Total seeming incompetency, grounding stuff that would have been extremely useful to evacuate some territory.
With emphasis on ‘seeming’.
Afghanistan/Kabul and Vietnam/Saigon.
Coming soon, the same in Taiwan/Taipei.
