This is quite concerning. NATOs Wedgetail (= AWACS replacement) programme has been afaics essentially killed by US withdrawal.
I'm not sure where this laves the UK.
NATO’s effort to replace its ageing E-3A Sentry fleet has been upended after the United States pulled out of the alliance’s planned purchase of up to six Boeing E-7 Wedgetails, leaving the programme without a strategic or financial anchor, the UK Defence Journal understands.
The Dutch Ministry of Defence confirmed that Washington withdrew from the AWACS replacement effort in July, prompting the Netherlands and several European partners to abandon the joint plan.

I'd say it is unlikely to need a revisit; vegan food is already at 40% in the NT so it is a marginal change. The numbers are that the vote was won at a 3:1 ratio, and that half of the country ar… (View Post)1 -

This is my photo for the day. An interesting comparison between Tokyo and New York. The 15 minute video is a follow up to the previous one I posted some weeks ago about Planning and Street Size in To… (View Post)2
