Boeing Drags Its Heels on Air Force Bid

I am not an American nor live in US but I am BA share holder. It boggles my mind why US Air Force is willing and wanting to give the contact for a foreign company. Based on what I read, both companies (BA and Airbus) are presenting comparable product to the air force. I do realize BA's proposal which is based on 767 is smaller but BA can also use the 777 given enough time to bid.

I am not saying other countries don't buy foreign products but for most part they buy foreign products because the foreign product is much better and it's no way comparable.

I don't know but I just feel that Air Force is willing to do anything to make it harder for a domestic company. If anything, they should make it easier.
