But it would make sense to diversify their air force to avoid worst outcome. Unlike Denmark which is a small nation with 5.5 mio people. Canada is much bigger and being extremely dependent on US, as things are going isn’t an option. I have a rough gut guess that some 40-50% of the F35 orders...

It's been a while since we've discussed whether we have budget for all these things, but when you look at all the things being developed and the progress being made, I Imagine that the penny being spent is being squeezed for every worth. But I do suspect that missing modernization of landforces...

I think it's a mistake to sign the deals seperately. It would be better for us to sign a complet package to avoid any bumps on the road. Unless of course buying the EF jets comes with a condition that we must be able to use our missiles from it, up to SOM types. Does anyone know if it's...

Those are some big numbers. I worry that it might have adverse effect on fertile soil, underground water reservoirs and such. Especially if greed takes over and they start fracking without control.

I think people should realize that vls isn't going to be present on any submarine in service or being built at the moment. anything in design change (early stage) may be designed with vls. But unless construction starts then don't count on it.

https://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/struggling-intel-names-industry-veteran-lip-bu-tan-as-ceo-206829 I guess it's become more important than ever to actually have an industry that can produce chips. Intel sitting on it's laural is being pressured

I had the same thought, but from the vietnamese thread I could see one of the recent posts that the armed forces were visiting and looking at the local APC/IFV production. Which if I remember correct were based on Russian models.

I wasn't thinking of fighterjets, but more like armaments, ammo, bombs and such. It would be suicide to try buy anything but US jets, and such. I never said anything about Israel needing 4th og 4,5 gen. It's for EU and Türkiye mostly as well as other countries that can't immediately buy 5th...

They would most likely use 3rd, 4th party shipments for their acquisition if you ask me. Even finance a middleman to retag stuff to appear from somewhere else. I seriously doubt anyone is controlling or reporting the armament type dropped by Israel, or where it came from. Israel will just bomb...

Yes, I know that, but it's another hindrance, and who knows maybe some crocodiles or such would find it attractive habitat. The best borders are the natural ones, but since we can't have our grand canyon, I think it would make sense to create one ourselves. building a wall is probably the...

Yes, but I was just pointing out that we should wait with celebrating until they have actually left.

It doesn't change the fact that in this high tech era, it's necessary to have a fighter jet that can perform crucial tasks without being interrupted. Also it's become important for countries to diversify their defence procurement. Israel is most definitely going to diversify and has been...

I very much doubt they will leave like that and leave an open flank of any sort for Israel. I think the first step has been taken, let's not fuck up the end game by not being on watch and being proactive. Too many stakeholders which aren't sharing borders with Syria can still fuck this up. We...

My idea of protecting our borders involves digging 5m deep trench and 10m wide and fill it with sea water, ensure it doesn't disappear.

Let's see how this unfolds.

You are late to the party. Trump already said that himself some 2-3 weeks ago, Now Airbus and Germany uses that example.

Why were Defencehub down yesterday ?

Very wise decision. the US could very well not hand out the flightcodes just to prevent EU from helping Ukraine in anyway. So like I said in a different thread EF is still very viable, and good fighterjet.
