Well, this is just another example of thinking that US has saved every
other
country's ass on this planet... which I think is a bit overreacted.

BTW, Finnish air force is flying US made hornets.

Yeah, they are. Does anyone have specs for Finnish F-18's? I'd like to know
if Finns changed anything from the basic C/D outfit.
And btw. does anyone have any idea if Finnish Hawk trainers are going to be
replaced and if so with what and when?
