Een tankbataljon was inderdaad een andere goede geweest. Dat kan voor CLAS niet meer uitblijven. In ieder geval heeft CLSK nu eindelijk een echt SEAD wapen. Bij de F-16 MLU was de AGM-88 HARM mogelijk, maar die kregen zij nooit.

Vond nog het bericht van Finland.

150 stuks AARGM-ER met extra's kost hen +/- 500 miljoen USD.

Combineer dit met de eerder gekochte JASSM-ER's en de KLU is weer voorzien van een set hig-end wapen systemen voor de F-35.

De KL komt ongetwijfeld snel aan de beurt als er een nieuw kabinet gevormd is en dat weer kan besluiten over dit soort aankopen. Tegen de tijd dat ze een kabinet geïnstalleerd hebben kan er weer gekeken worden naar Prinsjesdag en een nieuwe DMP overzicht.

Voor een klein miljard aan één type raketten besteld.. voor dat geld had je een tankbataljon kunnen kopen, met extra's.
