We here at the Jobbie Crew fully support the United States military 100% and if you are an American, you should too. Our troops are not the politicians who screw up the world. They are the hard-working men and women who keep the world from collapsing.
Selfridge Air National Guard Base in Harrison Township, Michigan (just north of Detroit) is one of the nation’s largest and busiest military installations.
Currently, 2 of 5 bases will be selected to produce the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II fighter jet, a badass 5th generation stealth joint strike fighter.
If we land this contract, this translates to a shiteload of dollars for the local economy. The US Air Force contract will be huge. The USAF is already planning on buying 1,763 of the F-35A JSF’s. Plus, an additional 1,300 will be sold elsewhere.
Each plane will cost around $150 million dollars! So if we build over 3,000 of these jets, we’re looking at generating over $450 BILLION dollars for the Greater Detroit area!
Selfridge Air National Guard Base has a great strategic location, the Michigan ANG 127th wing, base commander Brigadier Gen. John D. Slocum, Starbase and more.
Opened in 1917, Selfridge has 3,700 acres, 350 buildings, 9,000 foot long runway, 25 miles of paved roads and about 5,000 people (ie: active duty personnel, civilian employees, reservists and guardsmen).
