32. Well perhaps you need to know why
BAE systems, a BRITISH company, is part of the American Industrial complex, and builds mission critical components for the US.

the British cable systems, as well as satellite stations are essential for US communications and battlespace awareness in case of an European war.

In other worlds, what you are seeing are Imperial needs.

It is confirming the behavior of the US as am Imperial power. That is all it is doing.

In my case it is not lack of concern... it is just the confirmation of how deep the tentacles of Empire go.

Oh and BAE is also critical in the building of things like the Eurofighter for a wholly European system but also the F-35, which is being adopted by multiple service arms, not just ours.

Oh and this is probably having a few editors at Janes going... ok buddy I won this bet.
