#Trump said the #US would sell #F35 stealth fighter jets to #SaudiArabia in a similar arrangement it has with #Israel.
"As far as I'm concerned, I think they are both at a level where they should get top of the line (F-35s)," Trump said, referring to Saudi & Israel as great allies.

murdered journalist #JamalKhashoggi must be turning in his grave
#F35 many major parts are made outside the US. The front undercarriage (major part) used to be made in #turkiye but they lost the contract
Speaking of #Khashoggi, his GF (or wife?)
#EdwardSnowden said that the software, created by #NSOGroup Technologies, was used to help track Khashoggi, gain information from his and her phones

The most thought provoking article I have read this week:
A Norwegian bus company wants to know if their buses could be abused by China in the case of war.
So they drive two buses deep into a limestone mine to isolate them from the internet and forensically investigate how they work.
In the mine, investigators discover a Chinese kill switch which could destroy all Chinese buses.
In Denmark, that is 57 percent of the bus fleet.

The commander of a British aircraft carrier strike group said in an exclusive interview that the group will have achieved "full operating capability" by the time it returns home, following a landmark visit to Japan. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/09/02/asia-pacific/uk-aircraft-carrier-commander-japan/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #uk #ukjapanrelations #defense #indopacific #aircraftcarriers #f35 #sdf

Oooh, when you hit a software bug where your plane goes into "automated ground-operation mode"... while flying.
CNN: F-35 pilot held 50-minute airborne conference call with engineers before fighter jet crashed in Alaska
"...After going through system checklists in an attempt to remedy the problem, the pilot got on a conference call with engineers from the plane’s manufacturer, Lockheed Martin, as the plane flew near the air base. Five engineers participated in the call, including a senior software engineer, a flight safety engineer and three specialists in landing gear systems, the report said. ..."

If you wonder what you can do for #Palestine, your time will come sooner than you are ready for. Dock #workers in #France, #Greece & #Italy are refusing to load military equipment destined for #Israel. A #genocide requires a lot of logistics/resources, so much so that all levels of society are involved. Be there and be counted when it creeps into your meetings, your procurement reviews, your accounting, orders, shifts, artistic opportunities...

British F-35B fighter aircraft could potentially be landing and taking off from one of Japan's de facto aircraft carriers soon, with a U.K. carrier strike group set to reach Japanese waters in August. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/07/02/japan/uk-f35-japan-carrier/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #ukjapanrelations #uk #indopacific #f35 #sdf #defense #msdf
