  • As we explained in detail in a previous article about the “kill switch” myth, according to which the U.S. government has the ability to remotely disable or limit the operational capabilities of foreign-operated F-35 fighter jets, international F-35 operators “are not allowed to conduct independent test operations outside of the Continental United States (CONUS) based on U.S. policy.

    So, the only thing stopping this “myth” from becoming reality is a set of rules, not a physical obstacle or technical limitation. To me, that seems like a shallow reason to dismiss something as a myth.

    We’ve already seen how much Trump respects the law, and how Elon is eager to dismantle/fire any regulatory agency/individual who is responsible for enforcement of inconvenient regulations.

    The author of this article is alarmingly naive. Portugal is making a wise decision.
