Defense Spending "On the Table"

[merrylander]

The last I heard was that China was having tio import their jet engines from Russia because their own designs could not last three months. Of course no doubt GE would be happy to sell to them.

Of course an airframe is only good for a certain length of time. It seems that the Comet has been forgotten. That is not to say that we can't build more F16s, F18s and improve their armament. They are proven designs - oh and they don't require two engines, one manufacturer does a good job.
