British Aerospace is collaborating with the French, Germans and Swedes on new aircraft for the mid 21st century that will outperform and outgun even American warplanes, and the Americans don't like it!

The USA has sulked as its control over European affairs has sunk as Europe has realised its own standing EU army should replace NATO in time. Now the pentagon has told Blair, who has told BAe they can't share any US based stealth technology with BAe partners.

So, Blair should let BAe go its OWN way, our technology will outstrip the US anyway, and they will waste billions on an ILLEGAL missile defence system under president (no common sense) Bush. Why compromise our security for the USA?
