If Northrop were making the plane, I wouldn't have a problem with it. But Airbus (France) is making the plane and getting the lion's share of the loot.

And we send enough of our tax dollars overseas as is already, we don't need to be giving Billion dollar defense contracts to foreign countries, especially France.

I've been documenting some of the Northrop Grumman jobs and some of the EADS, U.S. part supplier jobs.

You should document your point if you wish to make one.

I wasn’t even aware that Northrop Grumman was involved in the deal at all until it was just finalized. I always heard it was EADS vs Boeing. Sounds like they wanted an American face on the deal and the only other choice was Lockheed Martin.
