“Buy or weapons or else…” Maybe we should look for a more reliable supplier and close our airspace to their jet fighters.
There isn’t one, the only stealth fighters are in the US or Russia/China. If you don’t have stealth fighters at all you will lose very badly in an air war against someone that does. That’s just how it is, you have an overwhelming advantage if you can shoot your enemy but they can’t even see you at range.
Air superiority has never won a war.

This will be a devastating air campaign for the US, many F35s will be lost to mechanical and software failures and it isn’t our fault it is totally Canada’s fault if that happens because if they had bought our jets we wouldn’t of had to break them by trying to use them as airplanes.
This is the exact real world tactical case F35 was built for!
(Also the only one it was built for.)I thought it was built for standoff missile attacks, not patrolling potentially hostile territory?
The F35 was built for enriching shareholders, the US military does not even own copyright over the aircraft.
In 2014, GAO reported that the F-35 program lacked an intellectual property strategy for repair and sustainment. The program didn’t release that strategy until July 2025, eleven years later. Because the military can’t access the technical data, parts, or diagnostic tools needed to repair their own aircraft, they’re forced to pay contractors to do it for them. The contractors set the prices, control the timeline, and profit from every breakdown.

In a sad way, thats hilarious. Of course while we’re screwing everyone and everything in the world, we’d make sure to eff ourselves over as well.
