Why do I get the feeling there is a divide within air forces?
A divide between those tied to the existing force and those contemplating a new force?
The Collaborative Combat Aircraft, as I have noted before, is perceived as two separate vehicles.

The traditional force is aligned and allied with the existing industrial base. And seems to be doing what it can to preserve traditional budgets, development programs and time lines.
Currently that side of the argument is exemplified by the MQ-25 Stingray, the MQ-9 Reaper and the 30 MUSD CCA.
The other side is championed by the upstarts like Kratos and Anduril and those looking for immediate solutions, "semi"-autonomous combat platforms and those looking for lower cost versions of the Reaper, something that is more in keeping with Bayraktar costs.
