    Always a struggle for me. I saw Canada’s demo CF-18 at an airshow a few years back and was having simultaneous thoughts of “so this is why we can’t afford clean water for our indigenous communities” and “HOLY SHIT IT SOUNDS SO COOL”.

      Frequently those problems could be solved for the cost of a single aircraft.

      You can’t afford clean water for indigenous people because they couldn’t buy one fewer aircraft.

      You needed all 138.
