      Liberal brain flatness. F-35 program cost is absolutely astronomical, but when liberal hear of it, the pavlov reaction kicks in, and the only conclusions he can get from that is “wow, if it cost 10 times more than Russian fighter, it is surely 10 times better” instead of what even he knows on a daily basis, that in his corrupted country there is nothing more corrupted than MIC.

        So it’s the good ol’ “expensive means good” philosophy. Cool. Love how that’s just what people are running with nowadays, seems very stable.

      It’s been carefully designed by extremely talented engineers to ensure parts are sourced from all major players in the MIC.
