Remind me again: How many French Dassault Rafale fighter jets or Swedish Gripen Jets have the US Air Force bought?
Amerikkkans don’t have this kind of restrictions
Oh wait
1. The Buy American Act of 1933 (BAA) (41 U.S.C. §§ 8301-8305),;
2. The Trade Agreements Act of 1979 (TAA) (19 U.S.C. §§ 2501-2581),
3. Department of Defense (DOD)– (a) the Berry amendment (10 U.S.C. § 4862); and (b) a "specialty metals restriction" (10 U.S.C. § 4863). -

@Randahl Fink you cannot buy weapons from sombody who can turn off these weapons remotely at a whim. or who just can up the price because he throws a tantrum! -

The agonizingly stupid thing is that dependency on US arms was something the US desired, encouraged, and rewarded - until the royal tangerine set fire to that arrangement and now complains that his toys are burning -

In terms of combat aircraft, fuck all apart from US firms. Outside of that, a few utility, trainer and SIGINT/ELINT aircraft from the EU and Canada.

@randahl The EU currently buys weapons for the Ukraine from the USA. That should be enough to feed the hungry mouths of the American arms manufacturers.
@Taubeaufdemdach @randahl *Ukraine, not "the" Ukraine.
But yeah.

They don't want us as allies, they want vassals. They don't want us to have a voice at the negotiating table on Ukraine, they don't want us to decide anything that concerns our territory (on social, digital, or defense issues), but they do want our money, they want us to continue paying tribute for crumbs.

Oh, it seems like he's not the only one, other ambassadors have caused scandals in the EU.

U.S. Ambassador to the EU
@USAmbEU
The United States opposes any efforts to incorporate European preference in the EU Defense Procurement Directive. We fully support European rearmament and a revitalization of the European defense industrial base. However, European preference in the Directive would undermine member state flexibility to make national procurement purchases, hinder European rearmament efforts, create barriers for Allies reaching NATO capability targets, and run counter to European commitments in the 2025 U.S.-EU Joint Statement on trade and Reciprocal Defense Procurement Agreements. -

@randahl Yeah, they conveniently failed to allow the massive profits from selling arms to Europe as being why they then paid more into NATO... They want their cake and eat it...

@randahl General Dynamics trying to sell Ajax Armoured Fighting Vehicle to British Army. Yes, it is built in Wales (UK), but the (all important) profits are exported from the UK subsiduary to Head Office in Virginia USA. The vehicle has proved to be poorly-designed causing nausea & injury to occupants. Lazy and incompetent procurement processes in UK going back a decade need to be reversed.

Also cold boot time:
Gripen: 1.5 minutes
F-35: 16 minutes (assuming it boots at all).USA has a cheek insisting people buy USA weapons. They have done that in the past with Aid.

The USA did buy Hawker Harriers for their navy.Can't think of anything else. However at the time those were unique. Mad the UK retired them without a replacement while USA was still using them.
