Amazing.
Australia hit on the wingman concept with a vengeance and along with Boeing are gonna reap the benefits of that foresight. Kinda stunning really. The USAF has been toying with this for years but the Aussies are beating us to the punch.
Meanwhile Israel is taking a public relations hit with the use of their gear in the ongoing conflict. Not sure what to make of that. Many countries sell weapons that are used in all kinds of vile ways, in what seems like unjust wars but I haven't seen the bad press that I've seen headed toward Israel.
Everyone else seems to be running in place. Don't get me wrong. I see all kinds of plans, organizational changes, weapons being planned for and such but it all seems either halfdone or vaporware.
The current hotness?
Australia and France.
The current notness?
Everyone else.
