Another point that proves the American military industrial complex is good at weapons but not at war. It highlights the typical capitalist need for planned obsolescence. A socialist military plans for the survivability and reparability of it's personnel and machines. The capitalist wants the machine to have expensive repairs. If people die? Oh well.
