Post or FReepmail me if you wish to be enlisted in or discharged from the Navair Pinglist.
The only requirement for inclusion in the Navair Pinglist is an interest in Naval Aviation.

I believe there’s all sorts of penalty clauses built into these things; if the govt pulled out, it might be nearly as expensive as continuing with the difference that there wouldn’t be any jobs created/saved in the areas where they are being built.
As an aside, not sure how it is with new US defence stuff, but whenever the media and politician report new defence contracts in the UK, they always emphasise how many jobs will be created as opposed to the contribution made to the country’s defence capabilities which seems to always takes second place to job creation.
