The folks in Afghanistan have shown their true colors. Why should we give them anything but a good view of us leaving their desolate country to its own devices?
Outfit the Afghan air farce? Nah...let’s just give them back their biplane and see how they do.

Hmmm ....maybe this is reading too much into the report, but could this mean that the Super Hornet’s chances dipped and this is a response to that?

Does this have to do to the fact Beech is about to go Chapter 11, and our dear leader the anointed one, can't have that happen on his watch. Color me cynical...

Absent a court order or GAO ruling, canceling the contract will mean paying millions in penalties to Sierra Nevada Corporation.

The Afghans should get nothing more lethal than cardboard silhouettes. This is a good decision, but not for the reasons stated. Afghanistan will be an enemy state before the last American boot has crossed the border. We need to stop arming Muslim enemies and just take off and nuke the site from orbit when they start causing us trouble.

What happened to the Air Tractor? Didn’t it cost enough to meet USAF requirements?

Doesn't it seem like we are going backwards on ground support aircraft?
