    Switzerland is in the process of buying their F-35 and is now seriously reconsidering it.

      Poland is also buying… But I am not sure if our government is smart enough to reconsider. They want to be nice to the Orang Dictator hoping he will spare them… Ignoring that lord Musk already started attacking them on twiXter.

        Tusk would be smart to cancel the F-35 order and start buying European weapons. I believe the Polish Ministry of Defense was bought by the US defense contractors. When Russia does invade Poland, not IF, Poland will be in a shitload of trouble trying to get spare parts to keep the US shit rolling and flying. At least FB Radom is not compromised, their Wz. 96 and VIS 100 are well built.

          I don’t think tariffs are the issues, it’s that the Orange baboon can switch them off remotely if he’s even faintly slighted by someone
