You must not live here if you think DoD is Francophile lol, must be why we have so much French kit (0, zilch, nada) in our Forces! I would take a Rafale over a bloated (for our needs) F35 any day.
In the category of selling us anything, those Victoria class submarines from the UK are hard to beat (no offense to my UK friends here, you got us!)
Inform yourself before posting such drivel. The Airbus tanker would more than our needs without the reinventing the wheel aspect of the Boeing product.
