@londop.a.3048 Don't be so sure. We Europeans favour European weapons.

@londop.a.3048 The OP was wondering about the positives for American citizens of Finland and Sweden joining NATO. You listed the pre-existing F-35 customers in Europe. Did you have a point?

@londop.a.3048 I think you're being deliberately obtuse. Finland picked the F-35 after a thorough evaluation already in December last year. The deal included a weapons package with the latest of the latest. Unlike just about every existing NATO member, Finland didn't let its guard down when the Cold War ended. Also, Finland has worked towards NATO compatibility for more than a decade. Myself, I served under NATO command in Kosovo. My cousin did the same in Afghanistan.
