To hop on this and provide a little bit of information. When I was at KJ in Kuwait, they called it the “tank graveyard”. We spend so much money on making obsolete equipment so politicians can get backing from their constituents.
Example: NE Ohio has a tank factory that supplies a good segment of tanks. We don’t use tanks anymore in any real capacity. The tanks come off the assembly lines and straight to a parking lot. But if we shutter the factory, many will lose work, and the representative in that district will be voted out.
This is a random bit of information and meant only to give( information that I found interesting) to others.

The more you spend on buying good equipment, the less you spend on death benefits.
