Fuck yeah. Government and military equipment should be provided from within its own borders. It's a security and economical risk otherwise.

If US falls into recession, I believe this actually might be good for EU. Usually recession in US also pulls other countries, but if EU will switch into producing military equipment it might soften the effect in EU.
Also trump blocking radar jamming in Ukrainian F-16 will really hurt US long term. How the weapons can be trusted?
