  • The one issue that i see is that in a way (at least some) countries are on both the buyer and seller side. As long as there is still drive to favor domestic companies and keep know-how/capabilities rather than sharing them.

    That’s what usually hinders joint development projects e.g. between France and Germany. Both want as large of a share as possible to go to their own industry. Or i think it is partially why Poland went with korean tanks, rather than leopards (but i might remember this one wrong).

    To me it seems like this will particularly be interesting to smaller countries without large weapon manufacturers, but maybe it could also help us here in Germany to finally fix our terrible procurement system.
