Why are all the best defense industry companies located in America?

why are all the best defense industry companies located in America?

>Lockheed Martin
>Northrop Grumman
>Boeing
>BAE
>Pratt and Whitney

is the rest of the world even trying?

Raytheon?

BAE is based in the UK.

they are american too

Because the US has a habit of pissing off other countries in a game of "Who has the bigger dick", which forces them to spend billions of dollars on military and defense.

heckler&koch

You know that's a harrier? A British plane. And bae is British

>British Aerospace (BAe)

Russian missile technology > Everyone elses

There are many countries which are better in different fields.

they are only ahead because we are working on new stuff not out yet

german diesel submarines are the best for short range missions (btw go k )as you said better in fields

Rolls-Royce
Accuracy International
Cobham
QinetiQ
Meggitt

And they arent? The worlds fastest and most advanced ICBM with the biggest payload (SS-18) Also know as Satan by US analysts is soon to be replaced by a new russian ICBM called the the RS-28 Sarmat, they only out preform themselves at this point.

GDLS-C checking in, eh

>GDLS-C
>GDLS.com. General Dynamics Land Systems is an American military vehicle manufacturer.
I don't think local sub-divisions count

pretty simple really. the US ministry of defense dumps way more money into advanced military tech. its a market that pays and gives incentive to create new, ground breaking tech. most countries just dont care enough to spend such ridiculous amounts on military developments.

same goes for air-defense radar systems. nothing comes close to SA-22b nowadays.

because war for profit

BAE is British. Don't try and claim it.

Harrier originally British, US ones built by MCDonnell Douglas (now Boeing I think).

Im sure. I heard a lot about it, im no Russia fanboy, but i will grant them many things, and one of them is world class military equipment.

I just hate when people are triggered because i tell them there are other countries with amazing tech. Im from a Nato country aswell.

Why would you bother selling primarily to anyone else? Everyone else has sensible military budgets. Any competent business is gonna set up shop where the market is most demanding.

This. USA has an culture of violence. Being proud of developing the best killing machines because your country begins the most wars is just retarded

Just when NATO started figuring stuff out with the S-300 (a 30 year old system) the Russians come out with the S-400. We're always decades behind when it comes to long range air defense that we will never fly an air battle over Russia.

war between major powers is economical nowadays. Putin may have a few missles here and there but he is definitely on the losing side in this new cold war. it wont be long before Putin is on his way out and we have installed a NATO puppet in his place

>bae
>boeing

that is not accurate. sure, those are scary as fuck, but theres ways to deal with them. figuring out=having effecting electronic warfare tools to deal with. you can cope with such systems even without that, say using cyber-warfare tools as one example. also, being able to recognize S-400 and being able to use counter-measures against it are two different things, one much easier than the other and still lets you do operations on enemy land.

Thats what happened to the USS donald Cook in the black sea, it was buzzed by a russian plane by something simmilar to a EMP, several minutes went by until they had control of the ship (i believe it was a destroyer)

But the reason it happened in the first place was because they could not locate the plane on the radar, pretty neat stuff, just wish it was on our side, allthough im sure we are capable of doing the same to them.

This is true, but these radars do have Electronic Counter Counter Measures in the algorithms of their computers. There's no way for us to know how effective things like velocity gate pull offs (VGPO), sperating target generators, false target generators, chaff, etc. are effective at fooling the ECCM algorithms of the onboard Russian computers. Even if we fire off a HARM missile at an S-400, we do not know how fast the Russians can react and destroy that incoming missile, seeing as the Russians can engage well out to 200 km.....a much further range than that of a HARM. Until an F-35 flies against an S-400 for real, we won't know how effective our techniques will be.

Based japan

...

god damn i love being American

Russian made nukes my comrade

This can reach our countries in less than 40 minutes.

our missle defense system would shoot it down before it got out of poland. of course radioactive fallout would cover poland rendering much of it uninhabitable and give millions of pollacks cancer, but who cares

>BAE
>BAE Systems plc is a British multinational defence, security and aerospace company.
how are americans this stupid is the question we should be asking

...

...

is that a Swedish missle defense system?

no nigga your missiles do not traves 20 times as quick as the russians missiles
it would be shot down in the atlantic

...

Your own pentagon analysists has said it gives Russia "the first strike capability" This thing does not hit land, it fires off 13 warheads from space, its an ICBM. It also has 40 penetration aids which renders you shield rather useless, also stated by the pentagon.

...

There was a joint Nato military exercise back in 2015 where they were simulating and attack in the sea. One single French submarine downed a US aircraft carrier and most of its escort. The name of the submarine was Saphir.

good night!

>Russia
>anything world class

yeah McDouglas is gone

...

top of the line tank

Russia will never know true air-superiority

shut up faggot

OP said located, not headquartered. Yes, I think I'm smart because I can read... Subs aren't considered a land vehicle btw.

lmao them stinky russians couldn't even beat a bunch of Afghans!!!

Stealth is only effective against the shorter wavelength radars. Russia has advanced long wavelength radars to the point where they are now accurate enough to pick out targets and actually give firing solutions to their AA missiles. Onboard radars in the missile can do the rest at close range to the target.
Russia is well ahead of the game with their anti-aircraft missiles and radars.

lol stop lying on the internet putin
