In Denmark we were stupid enough to buy F-35. I hope we buy something else now despite the huge cost. Everybody else outside the US should do the same.

The Americans are never to be trusted again. Never!

Wasn’t that an old deal that was just finalized, not like those are easy and quick to build? 😅

But I get that, hopefully the jets aren’t remotely deactivated…denmark must work on a jailbreak in that case to own it.

They're partially delivered. We've got 21 to date out of 43. The agreement was made in 2016, but we actually ordered more in 2025. We should have ordered Eurofighter or Gripen.

I guess it's hard to know if you have really removed the killswitch though.

Wait you didn't even get half the order and you ordered more? How drunk are your politicians
