Yeah, they're not the right manufacturer and not all that trustworthy.
If we were going to manufacture a fighter you would almost need a new entity, you would also need to hire the expertise from pretty much out of the country as you want experienced managers and engineers that have worked in the fighter industry. We also don't have the secondary industry needed to support fighter manufacture so we would end up buying parts etc internationally.
Its just a bad idea. Right now our primary at home defense contractors are naval or off shoots of American companies for ground force platforms.
