Lets be honest this is typical Bombardier. They didn't even really have a plane, just a concept. opening this up would have probably meant a 20 year replacement cycle. The P-8 works, it works with our allies, its heavily adopted.
This is as sole sourced as it comes. I'll give the DM his flowers on this.
Besides Bombardier can't even built a LRT car that has doors that work, and every project is over cost and over time and a money pit.
Besides they got enough money out of our military with the major Iltis screw job.
Now the problem is, with the shortages of personal, do we have people to fly operate and maintain them?
