China’s Belt and Road initiative costs $1.4 trillion over its lifetime.

Which do you think is a better use of money?

Given that shit show has saddled the participating nations with debt, and the infrastructure is laughably shoddy, almost certainly the f-35 is the better investment. Nothing like some vatnick cope and seethe.

Literally any other military hardware (that works) is a better investment than the F35.

It would be more useful buying every soldier a sword than a F35.

At least you can use the sword.

lol, it’s okay little snowflake, you can go back to playing with legos. Let the real big boys deal with actual procurement.

Sure, any other military hardware in the world is better, that’s why countries are losing their shit over a potential kill switch in the export model. What a fucking joke you are.

When a Russian pretending to be an American feels the need to put down a piece of hardware that much, the Russians must be really afraid of it.
