Is it that the process is broke? Or is it we don't actually enforce it because the public care's more about world opinion then our actual imigration laws? Every country on the planet is doing the same thing as the United States, if the press would report that then people would actually respect laws of said countries instead of walking over them and claiming it is in human interest. ** My .02 - it is the USA responsiblity to take care of the legal citizens of this country, NOT appeal to people who's first act getting here is to commit a crime against the country by violating it's imigration laws. Technically anyone who enters a country without consent can be considered an invader, perhaps we should declare war on Mexico for their invasion of the US - oh wait....we did that once already. Sweden is to reject up to 80,000 people who applied for asylum in the country last year, as many as half of whom will be forced to leave against their will, according to official estimates. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jan/28/sweden-to-expel-up-to-80000-rejected-asylum-seekers There are 37,288 illegal immigrants in Israel. 71% of them are from Eritrea, 21% from Sudan, 7% from other African countries, and 1% from non-African countries. Most entered Israel illegally from Sinai between 2006 and 2012, and many live in south Tel-Aviv. Illegal entry into Israel from Sinai during those years was possible because the border between Israel and Egypt was only marked by a low and easily trespassed fence. In 2010, Israel began the construction of an impregnable barrier which was completed in 2013. This barrier has put an end to illegal immigration. https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/israel-is-not-deporting-refugees/ The new Norwegian Prime Minister, Erna Solberg, began a program that deports Muslims who have ties to radical groups. And something stunning occurred: the country’s violent crimes are down more than 31% in less than a year since Muslim deportations began https://toprightnews.com/heres-what-happened-when-one-nation-started-deporting-radical-muslims/ Other countries following suit.

Fixed for you. SNC simply provided what the customer listed as requirements.

I'm not going to get into capabilities on an open forum but I will answer your question and you can figure out the rest. SA uses the original A-29 to fight drug dealers, cartels and wanna be terrorist, we intend to use it to fight people pissed off at us with means to seriously fire back. USAF is not going to buy a 20 year old design without some gold plating on it to make everyone happy that it is spiffy and new Last time we had a prop driven aircraft who's role primarily dropped bombs was a Skyraider.... come on now.

Kind of like expecting this Then getting to the dealership and getting this

I was a senior exec for the prime, but eventually got tired of "Taco" stories about how great we were. A-29 is a good aircraft as a whole but design for USA was not the same as the one build in SA for years therefore needs to be considered like any brand new design and it has some severe struggles that people on the end side probably don't know about.. Has four fuel pumps because known failure rate of these is 90%+ Has only one hyd pump which known failure rate is 65%+ Have to fly with two tanks to ensure any sort of reasonable range however when you fly with tanks the .50 casings bounce off the tanks and get stuck in the flaps damaging them once you move them. Guns jam all the time due to design issues with empty shute If you fly with a POD then centerline station is unusable Hud is basically worthless as the PSU failure rate is 98%+ Fuel system wont transfer, single point fueling is problematic at best. Gear handle switch down doesn't always equal gear down. OBOGs is like trying to sucking air through a straw It goes on and on, so as I said before AT-6B would be my choice based on Beechcraft's years of experience and working with a known design. A-29 is really a new design that has never been tested before that is being directed by SA mgmt that has no experience or idea how to build a US Military aircraft.

AT-6B. What lurks behind the curtain in A-29 production land is of no value to us either as war fighters or taxpayers

And suddenly we have funding for a 7th Gen Fighter that will probably be designed with a stick and OBOGS system in it but no seat and delivered 20 years to late. But as long as control + Alt + Delete works

It will be interesting to see what this Swiss army knife of aircraft looks like once all the gold plating is finished

Considering that to be of any use the A-29 has to fly with two tanks, it would make 800 feet really tight.
