Welp, looks like Türkiye is looking at acquiring Eurofighter Typhoons instead of F-35s. At this rate, Trump's reputational damage—self-inflicted by attacking his allies and cutting Ukraine off at the knees—is going to take down the US military export industry. Nobody wants to build their armed services around weapons bought from a supplier who couid decide to disable them on a whim.

@cstross It is almost like Türkiye doesn't trust usa and wants to be independent. I wonder what Canada thinks?
@Robo105 We’re already looking at cancelling our order of them as well, from the sounds of it.
@Serenus I haven't heard anything to that effect
@Robo105 It’s pretty recent and not 100% confirmed yet, but it’s being floated from the sounds of it.
@Serenus I hope you are right
