Give them the planes for free if they take EVERY MUSLIM out of this country. It would be cheaper both in the short and long runs.
I have some similar thoughts on Israel’s planes…
Will they remain an ally after receiving hardware the quality of F-35’s? Quite likely to be some buyers remorse down the road.
I’d figure they’d sell them to China, but Israel probably already beat them to it.
