    Damn, US obviously needs to up their military funding so they can develop these things! No wonder they're falling behind with such a paltry military budget, how are they expected to be competitive when they only have ten times the budget of their enemies? They need at least 20 times, or 30 times! The US should just close down public schools or something to afford it, it's not like those kids need to learn to read anyway, who even reads in the US these days?
