Maybe Israel has some good used stuff the US could buy, might be better than ours.

The US arms industry is weak, very weak. We could barely handle the Iraq/ Afghanistan war. When I was advising in Colombia, US DOS couldn’t get us US manufactured 7.62, ALL our ammo came from Israel, all IMI headstamped small arms ammunition.
Our military does have some history of leaning on the Israelis to fine tune some of the hardware we make for them, and then incorporating those improvements into our hardware.
