the THK may even consider to abandon the idea of buying around 100 JSF fighters from the US
as if the us is gonna give a shit about it. this is for internal consumption only.
the jsf plane spec is a good one with all the options, but as usual the us will not allow the plane to be sold with all the options fitted. it will be downgraded, as it was the case with the uk screaming not so long back. now if the uk isn't getting the plane fitted with all the options what makes anyone think turkey will?
the point here is that the us allows the imf to give money to turkey in the form of loans, and then the us stands first in line to take all this money back from turkey. its a damn good relationship.
