"@lainus86 @robeslo Sanchez was saying he wants to stick to 2%. The Hurjet was already the cheapest possible option for a trainer. I don't see Spain paying 400m plus per fighter jet it's too expensive for the budgets you have imho"

"@Victor35571262 @Luca27125188 And in the nicest way possible we know that Spain literally cannot afford GCAP even if you were prepared to be a pure customer for something that we shipped from British or Italian production lines. It's going to be around 350m per unit. We aren't even trying to get Spain"

"@Victor35571262 @Luca27125188 GCAP has a planned production run of XXX units for and we think that it will be around 300m GBP per unit. The problem is the definition of acceptable price for Spain is lower than for . 150-250m doesn't get you 6th gen imho that's Kaan money"

"@Luca27125188 @Victor35571262 The design concept of FCAS is also impossible: France wants: navalised (so relatively lighter) nuclear capable Germany wants: high range and payload (heavier more expensive) Spain wants: a European fighter jet which costs less than 250m"

"@Mankosmash @Aviation_Intel I mean other than the fact that's half the displacement of a light Frigate and not even significantly cheaper"

"@UMAwinningcall Yes because Japanese newspapers clearly know something British ones don't regarding the UK. Btw the Koreans brought the shipyard that Australia is using to build the Mogami class so it looks like that deal is in trouble "

"@rick_dane_dev @florianederer @jt_kerwin I don't think Americans understand European football culture. Plenty of British fans will go to every single one of their teams games and they aren't rich. My team has one and he owns a failing secondhand bookshop"

"@rick_dane_dev @florianederer @jt_kerwin No they can't be. If you're an American you'll see like an $XX regional flight and say that's really really cheap right Cheapest flight I've been on is XXXX London to Athens on Wizz air ($12 for X hours). Regularly see London-Egypt X hour flight 40"

"@LonghornSloth @rick_dane_dev @florianederer @jt_kerwin The distances of the US would absolutely not be a problem with European travel prices . I can quite regularly find XX flights from London to Egypt which is an equivalent distance as from NYC to San Francisco. The problem is NYC to San Fran isn't gonna be 40"
