From the article: "Hoekstra told CTV News last month that European fighter jets "don't really count as full airplanes" if they don't integrate with the U.S. fleet."
Not only is that NOT a disincentive, they should have parallel systems that absolutely do not interface with American systems that they can switch to in action.
Canada should pre-order 200 if these.

La crisi del programma Fcas conferma le difficoltà strutturali dei grandi progetti europei di difesa ad alta integrazione industriale. E il Gcap mostra tensioni legate a finanziamenti, governance e tempi di realizzazione.

Dopo anni di preparativi il progetto Fcas, il programma che coinvolge Francia, Germania e Spagna per i caccia di sesta generazione, è giunto ai titoli di coda. Secondo fonti governative tedesche, infatti, il cancelliere tedesco Friedrich Merz (Cdu) e il presidente francese Emmanuel Macron sono giunti alla conclusione che le aziende Dassault e Airbus non riescono a trovare un accordo sulla costruzione di un aereo da combattimento congiunto.

Stranamente il movimento pacifista, a parte qualche lodevole eccezione, non è proattivo su questo costosissimo programma militare.

Meloni, Global compact Air Programme in fase operativa, caccia di sesta generazione - Notizie - Ansa.it
Meloni: "Abbiamo avviato il dialogo sullo spazio per unire le competenze. Sulla difesa abbiamo continuato a lavorare fianco a fianco per il Global compact Air Programme insieme a Uk" per "caccia di sesta generazione".
Peccato che si chiami GCAP: Global Combat Air Programme. Combat e non Compact.

Caccia di sesta generazione triplica i costi il progetto. Da 6 miliardi a 18. Il GCAP non decolla, il PD lo ha votato. Le finanze britanniche sono in affanno di fronte a questo megaprogetto militare. Ma il Giappone preme per averlo al più presto.
