No we won’t. If you watch Perun’s latest video, he mentions a huge vulnerability with buying from America, one that a lot of us tend to forget - if you buy from an American company, the American government has the right to restrict who you can share it with, sell or give it to. And if you make a weapons system such as a fighter in Sweden and it has an American component such as a jet engine, the American government can also restrict the sale, sharing, or giving of said fighter.
It affects a helluva lot of European weapons, and we are in a position to deny things like cruise missiles made in England or France to Ukraine, or jets made in Sweden or self-propelled artillery systems that use an American computer. Whether we follow through and deny a host of weapons provided by other countries to Ukraine is for the CR thread, but what was an advantage - using the latest American technology or benefiting from our economy of scale, is now a vulnerability that has to be dealt with.
If you are a European defense contractor, you are going to pivot from American suppliers to South Korean, Taiwanese, Japanese, etc. suppliers.
And in the US, it’s for the Elon Musk thread, but DOGE is turning its sights towards the DOD, and every dollar that goes to Lockheed or Boeing or whoever is a dollar that doesn’t go to an Elon Musk company, and Musk and Co. are wanting to shrink the US military for a reason.
Those two problems are going to hammer our defense industries
