that's kind of scary
Regarding their overdue upgrades for standard vehicles? We went modular awhile back with many systems, dealing with new threats in a familiar class often happens behind the scenes, with little fanfare. And that's if DoD feels the need to begin with!
My main worry is Russia's new electronic warfare system. After what happened to the Donald Cook last spring in the Black Sea, I hope Navy brass sufficiently shit itself in order to make defending against Khibiny a huge priority. We need Aegis / AESA upgrades, and fucking chop chop guys. When an Arleigh Burke can basically be turned off like a T.V, we have problems. Nice one Russia, credit where credit is due.
We do because most of that goes to waste and corruption in the military-industrial-congressional-intelligence complex.
And you think, that it is any different in Russia, or China? LOL

I don't think we need to worry.
Saudi Arabia...that's messed up.
You get the impression that's rich oil barons and their little war toys. A bit like the US now that I think about it.

You don't suppose that they want to get rid of a plane that only helps the army and want shiny new toys to zoom around in?
I hope we don't have to fight the Chinese in the future.
