Such an arrangement is the best Europe is ever going to get so it is still very positive news
for the so called 'two way street' which, in practice has been anything but.
Even the Harrier and Canberra were built in America, and the Hawk
When Europe first at Heav'n's command
Arose from out the azure main;
This was the charter of the land,
And guardian angels sang this strain;
Rule, Europa! Europa, rule the waves:
Europeans never will be slaves.
The nations not so blest as thee,
Shall in their turns to tyrants fall;
While thou shalt flourish great and free,
The dread and envy of them all.
Rule, Europa! Europa, rule the waves:
Europeans never will be slaves.
Still mor majestic shalt thou rise,
More dreadful from each foreign stroke;
As the loud blast that tears the skies,
Serves but to root thy native oak.
Rule, Europa! Europa, rule the waves:
Europeans never will be slaves.
Thee haughty tyrants ne'er shall tame,
All their attempts to bend thee down
Will but arouse thy generous flame;
But work their woe, and thy renown.
Rule, Europa! Europa, rule the waves:
Europeans never will be slaves.
To thee belongs the rural reign;
They cities shall with commerce shine;
All thine shall be the subject main,
And every shore it circles thine.
Rule, Europa! Europa, rule the waves:
Europeans never will be slaves.
The Muses, still with freedom found,
Shall to thy happy coast repair;
Blest Isle! With matchless beauty crowned,
And manly hearts to juide the fair.
Rule, Europa! Europa, rule the waves:
Europeans never will be slaves.

Me, they have bought liscences to other craft in the past, Canberra, harrier, I'm sure Waynos knows alot more. But, I know what you mean.

Not on here it wasn't, everyone was too busy with Airbus' woes and it got rather overlooked.

Perhaps this is a preemptory move to soften the blow of the Tanker contract? If the A350/A370 gets traditonal "Launch Aid" then you can stick a fork in the KC330 cause its done.
