First the U.S. Military uses passenger United Airlines flights to ship weapons to the IDF, now they’re using UPS to transport F-35 parts?

Don’t they have their own transportation logistics? Why rely on everyday consumer services?

>The parts, which an intermediary was transporting on behalf of F-35 manufacturer Lockheed Martin, instead wound up in Hong Kong.

Having said that, LM would have a jet they could put the parts on next to the caviar and golf clubs.
