Trump is selling the F35 to one if Russias biggest military partners effectively transferring our top of the line tech to Russia (which ends up being transfered to china)

Musk and Trump are turning their back on Nato, eliminating safeguards to protect election interference, promoting Russian interest by destabilizing the US government and economy. Setting up Russia to gain critical minerals and resources in Ukraine...

fuck

You have to wonder, if Russian or Chinese agents somehow got control of the US government, would they be doing anything different than what Trump and co are doing now?

Lockheed should say "Ok, your first delivery will be in 2030."

Yep. There is a line at the factory with other orders first. Wouldn't it technically also need congressional approval? Just slow walk that process since it wouldn't be a priority over tax cuts.

Yes, the production wait might legitimately stretch out at least that far and they would be at the very end of the line. Delaying congressional approval would push it even further.

India operates a real random assortment of aircraft. Everything from Mig-29 to Rafael. They were offered F-16Vs but haven't taken us up on it.

Between Trump being a Russian and Musk asset.
Vance being Theils crazy asset
Musk being both Theils and Putins asset
The crazy Christians running Trump and congress...

Oh, it's worse than that. Russia already has vast reserves of those same minerals that aren't developed, Putin's just in it for bragging rights and punishing Ukraine for turning to the west. Trump's selling Ukraine out to Putin for... I guess a complement? It's just bafflingly stupid.

Isn't the F35 and F22 due to replacement soon?

Hopefully by the time they get it and send the schematics to the Russkies.. we've got 6th gen fighters already. I hear Japan is working on one.

The Air Force and the Navy both have next generation aircraft programs going but it will be many many years before that translates into stuff coming off the line. F-35 is in full rate production and will be for quite a long time.

I am skeptical of India's interest in actually obtaining them and also skeptical of Moscow being able to apply a lot of whatever they might learn. Still should be avoided however.

 

[Brainonska511]

Isn't the F35 and F22 due to replacement soon?

No. The F35 is still rolling out. The F22 is no longer in production, but it still in active service.

Occasional reminder that Erdogan tanking his F-35 deal in favor of getting S-400s is maybe the worst military procurement decision in memory.

The F35 is going to around for the next 50 years.
The f22 replacement is already under development and the navy also a version in the works.

It is believed that these programs are at risk because Team Trump is being told to cancel them.
Because reasons spoken with specific Russian and South African accents

They're all the same, simple corrupt assholes who want power so they can be free of consequences for the behavior they know is terrible.

"We're also paving the way to ultimately provide India with the F-35 stealth fighters," Trump told a joint news conference with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.



Sounds like the concept of a plan for a possible sale, perhaps sometime in the future or whenever....


More Trumpish blather; certainly no done deal.

Yes, certainly not a done deal. But just more random bullshit that Dementia Don spews out. He's just not there mentally, and latches onto words and thoughts like a broken and racist LLM.

One of the strongest conventional assets of WW3, delivered gift wrapped to the Eastern Bloc.
I remember when we feared letting Turkey, a NATO member, have them due to mixed loyalty.
Now we simply hand deliver them to Russia and China.

Kim is probably in line.

Hmmm....India would only accept an F16 deal if they were able to do the manufacturing in their own county but now they're willing to just buy F35's no strings attached? Gee I wonder why?

More Russian, why? China might be enemy of Russia eventually, so Russia wants the only ethnichally similar which is the US.

Well they would up R&D budgets so they can get the tech for free.
