Vandaag mooi bezoek aan GA in Desert Horizon en in San Diego. Indrukwekkend om de MQ-9 Reaper in actie te zien. Ook goede gesprekken over toekomstige samenwerkingen tussen de Nederlandse en Amerikaanse industrie.

The Kremlin’s strikes in Ukraine today hit non-military targets and killed civilians. They demonstrate again who is in the right and who is in the wrong. To the people of Ukraine: The United States stands with you.
