Summary
European nations refute claims that the U.S. has a “kill switch” for F-35 fighter jets, despite concerns raised after Trump suspended military aid and intelligence support to Ukraine.
While no evidence confirms such a switch, experts warn the U.S. could limit access to crucial software updates.
Belgium and Switzerland assert their F-35s remain autonomous but acknowledge reliance on U.S. data systems.
Set to receive 35 F-35s in 2026, some German politicians are questioning whether the purchase should have been made amid these concerns.
China isn’t an ally of Europe. This would also be damaging us.
imagine if China did ally with europe though, they could put russia under their thumb within a year and eurasia would become the sole world power
Conquer and divide Russia? Everything west of the Urals gets to join the EU, and everything east can uhhhh remain rural Russia, ally with Mongolia and China?
