At $130+ million a pop, we'd have been better off trying to build our own "5th gen" update of the Harrier. So now we're getting two carriers, the wrong size, with the wrong catapult system, and the wrong propulsion, only one of which will be loaded with the wrong planes.

And to add to the problem, the tail hook doesn't work, and it won't fire our missiles, and they won't give us the source code for the AI assisted targeting and avionics, so we can't reprogram it for anything else we build, AND it might come pre installed with a "hacker backdoor" go-code remote control on/off switch...

Arghhhhhhhh!
