You don’t have to say ‘Thank you’ for showing you the truth. Just say ‘Merci’.

  1. Of course you were right. We Germans were naive about Russia as well as the US.

  2. Far be it from me to deny a Frenchman some autofellatio … but this “kill switch” story is a myth.

    Might even be a Russian disinformation operation to harm US-production of these jets.

  3. These are 2 total different planes. The F35 is superiour in every way. The Eurofighter is nice, but in the 21st century not that useful anymore.

  4. This is not a solution either, range and stealth are king nowadays. We need a modern tornado like project for a 5th gen.

  5. They’ve always been right, that’s never been the problem. It’s that they’re douchebags.

    But hate turned to tolerance, tolerance became fondness, and with time, we learned to love them.

  6. Soon we shall have a discussion about the British too. But you are not yet ready for that.

  7. Its annoying that its still a “maybe”. The US is threatening allies, and we might not give them billions anymore.

  8. Now they need to admit that France was right about nuclear.

  9. 🎵Merci, my little way of saying thanks,
    Merci, for being you!🎶

  10. I wish our idiots in Romania wake up too, we also signed a deal for F-35s but it’s more delayed and I’m sure it can be cancelled IF THEY WANTED TO, ugh…. meanwhile we are buying US drones and US tanks and all sorts of US weapons… while flying US planes (which they stopped the updates on in Ukraine so apparently those too are vulnerable…) and relying on the Patriot defense system. We are screwed!

  11. As a Bavarian, I’m actually ok with ‘Merci’.

    Merci dia

  12. Let’s speed up the FCAS, we need an European stealth fighter.

  13. Come on, Pierre…you know even a broken clock is right, twice a day… 😛

    So, yeah, you were right. 😉

  14. And then there’s Switzerland who voted against buying Gripen-Jets. I don’t even know why we did that…

  15. Not gonna lie, I would rather fly a Eurofighter, than a F35

    Like who needs steahlts anyway, if you are just better?

  16. I can’t even say “rare“ France W anymore 🙁 now I got to say common W

  17. Why not JAS 39 Gripen? Lower price and lower running costs. Also it’s basically free from French engineering.

  18. Never trust a frog. The french planes have in-built surrender-switch. Take the Saab JAS 39 Gripen pill, Hans. 🇸🇪🇩🇪

  19. Not with their nuclear energy🎉 ( we weren’t right either)

  20. A similar situation happened in 2022 with the German Gepard AA platform that used Swiss made ammo. So when Germany gave Ukraine the guns, switzerland said “nein das ~~gold~~ ammo is ours”.

  21. Can we stop saying France was right all along? I mean, they were, but can we stop saying it?

  22. I’m fine with moving military budget to 5% of GDP. But only if not a single euro goes to America. We can make everything ourselves in Europe. That way we have satisfied Trump’s wish, but not his secret wish to spend it all on American systems. Seems like a win

  23. Fucking finally. The kill switch has always been the main argument against buying F-35s.

    I’m not ashamed to admit that France has always been right in this regard. Buy European, especially when it comes to defence and other critical tech.

  24. Brazil choosing new fighter

    US: *3000 pages of terms and conditions* “Oh and it has a kill switch, we can shut them down whenever we feel like it. And it will spy on you FYI.

    Sweden: “Sign the dotted line.”

    Brazil: Um… can we modify it, develop your own components?”

    Sweden: “It’s your airplane, you can replace the whole damn engine and make it sing nursery rhymes for all we care. We don’t advice you to do so but if it makes you happy… :/ “

  25. At least Hans took the pills and woke up to reality, we still went ahead and snagged those F-35s 🤦‍♂️

  26. I really hope that we’ll be able to create different, intercompatible weapon systems at European level. We’re not going to be angelic, our interests don’t always align, but I hope that in the long term, building a real independent European doctrine and defense will prevail.

  27. Alright pierre, why don’t you try not being a smug cunt for once. Challenge impossible.

  28. Don’t know how France could be winning more over this crisis. They are doing everything correctly. Well done Pierre!
