Just a week ago this was said to be $8.6 billion...now they say 17......that's interesting. It is called emergency just so that Congress does not get a say.....most of this stuff will take years to deliver, and surely they will cut the line.....there are nations that put in orders years ago who will not receive the gear as far as the eye can see.

A shitty way to treat customers, but America does not care.
