Actually, that was the opposite. The army wanted it but it got too
expensive. Think a

Yeah, the project probably kept alive all this time due to
politics, even though it was NRFPT (not ready for prime time).
Wasn't there a mobile artillery piece the Army didn't want,
but the politicians kept alive almost forever?

Works the other way around. Isr

after the Yom Kippur War in '73, McDonnell sent engineers to Israel

It was supposed to be a rhetorical funny.
Regarding Garands though, if anyone wants one there is a Garand adoption
program offered by the CMP.

But I guess then America couldn't sell Israel American made battle tanks
if Israel created their own?
Like I said, less about Defence and more about making money.

On the other hand, Israel canceled
production
Works the other way around. Israel (don't know about the UK) sends their
specs for customization to the US for manufacturing. They just did that with
a fighter design which is kick ass. On the other hand, Israel canceled
production of their main battle tank due to American 'pressure'. Stupid as
the
he definitions in E.O. 12958.

20 years in development and the beast wasn't done. I'm glad to see it
whacked.
The military really likes their weapons programs. They provide PILES of
money and lots of jobs, so for this project to be killed after billions
were spent, somebody must have said "It's a dog, put it to sleep."

One of the things that really pisses me off is seeing weapons the US
companies have sold to foreign nations eventually being used against us.
It's

I was pretty upset to hear about this. It seemed like an excellent close
attack platform, and from an infantry perspective that's only bad if it's
aimed at you :)
With Putin's actions in Russia I could totally see us fighting a
conventional war in the future.
