    “Germany has currently no capacity to manufacture a [fighter] jet.”

    True. However, just like Dassault, she forgets to mention that France has currently no capacity to finance the [development of a fighter] jet.

    It’s my understanding that Germany needs Dassault for the know-how, and Dassault needs Germany for the money.
