Seriously,if they shut down the tank plant in Lima and layoff all the workers,what would it cost to restart the place?And how long would it take to restart?
About the time the ChiCom expeditionary force is off loading in occupied California, the plant should just about be ready to go.
On the aeronautical side, the Air Force has been dealing with this for years - decades and longer. They’re called Air Force Plants. Government owned plants that allow contractors to use their facilities to produce airplanes.
Dobbins ARB Marietta (AF Plant 6 is one).....there’s another that used to be General Dynamics contracted in DFW... there are likely others.;
Government maintains the facilities, fixtures, jigs, requires fully documented data and the facilities to use, if they need them.
I am not for some get well plan for some plan in some Congressman’s district solely for jobs. If I were for that, I’d say pump that $120 million into the tank rehab facilities in Anniston....they’d be better stewards of that money.
