Dear Australia,
Please make us look like humans.
Why does a landing gear component need to be replaced based on flight time? Shouldn’t it be based on number of take-offs and landings?
Maybe it’s just easiest to build replacement into the maintenance schedule based on flight hours even though landing is the actual wear and tear
Because military contracts. Thats why.
At the end of the day, there’s a limit on flight hours before a plane must be landed.
Australia could act like a sovereign nation and do the right thing in the face of American interests but would you put money on it?
Didn’t work out so well for us last time.
Hate to be a party pooper but the only approved vendor doesn’t mean Israel couldn’t cobble something together.
Any inconvenience helps
Yeah, what would happen is another vendor being approved elsewhere, meaning it was pointless and they lost business.
Ending any relationship with Israel is not pointless.
It would be ending a relationship with any country that uses F-35s. Sorry, but you’re a child if you think there’s even a snowball’s chance in hell of a company risking their exclusive manufacturing of a component that could easily be produced elsewhere if there was a demand. You think the message from the company would be “We will not support Israel’s actions!” but the only message buyers will hear is “We’re an unreliable company that should not be trusted as a supplier!”
This post is like saying only one company makes the paint used to mark the bombs, so we can stop all the bombs by not making the paint; completely ignoring that the paint isn’t all that critical, there is already plenty of spare supply out there, and practically any other company could start producing more if it was really needed.
It would be good to know what point you’re trying to make.
the US will stop whatever Australia does in this regard and will punish us for it
Do you think we should end any and all relationships with Israel?
While presumably not as disposable cursory research shows the the horizontal tail assembly is provided exclusively by Canada and UK.
