“We should get in on the action. Limited range. Maintenance? Take the $$$ and let them kill each other.”

American equipment is outrageously priced. Russian equipment is not only cheaper, but you can buy spares from anyplace. American equipment spares depend on each successive president saying okay. Sometimes you do something they don’t like, like pass an anti-gay law, and you get no more spares. With no spares your plane is just a pretty decoration.
