However, the
military budget has been crap since 2013, and frankly we do not have the
money to upgrade the aircraft and also keep them combat capable.


US military budget is $523.9 billion for 2017, just to put crap in perspective.


Most federal money is spent on war toys, rent seeking corporate interests and investment bank bailouts. The rest is just wasted.
