Lijkt leuk daarbij zijn, maar heb wel een idee hoe dat er aan toe gaat

De KLu heeft nu nog de AIM-9M en misschien nog de oudere AIM-9L improved Sidewinder op voorraad. Deze worden vanzelf de komende jaren vervangen door de AIM-9X Block II Sidewinder. Daarnaast moet ook de AIM-120B AMRAAM worden vervangen, omdat deze niet in het wapenruim van de F-35 past (geen clipped fins zoals bij de AIM-120C).

Dat is geen probleem de Amraam en de Sidewinder komen wel op.

Misschien hebben wij nog een hoop oude meuk liggen. Boven Libië hebben we ook niks verschoten....  

En wat zouden we in Irak verschieten?!

Je kan geld maar één keer uitgeven. Op dit moment kunnen we het geld beter aan geleide bommen uitgeven want die worden enorm veel ingezet op het moment.
