A rare B-2 stealth bomber, flanked by F-35 fighter jets, flew over Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Alaska as Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin met for high-stakes talks on the Ukraine war. The dramatic display of U.S. airpower set the stage for the summit, with Putin briefly looking up at the aircraft as it passed overhead.

India has officially declined the U.S. offer to purchase F-35 fighter jets, citing strategic constraints and Trump’s new 25% tariffs on Indian goods. Instead, Russia’s Su-57 has emerged as the top contender, with Moscow offering co-production and Make-in-India support. India's Air Force modernization push comes amid rising threats from China and Pakistan’s growing fighter fleets. The F-35's inability to integrate with non-NATO weapons and its $100M+ price tag made it less viable for India. The shift signals New Delhi's pivot in defense policy amid strained U.S.-India trade ties.

India has reportedly declined a U.S. offer to buy F-35 stealth fighter jets, according to Bloomberg. The offer was made by President Trump during Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Washington in February. Instead of purchasing American jets, India is prioritizing joint defense manufacturing initiatives and has shown greater interest in the Russian Su-57, especially after its debut at Aero India.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs downplayed Bloomberg’s report, confirming no formal talks on the F-35 have taken place yet. Meanwhile, the U.S. has slapped 25% tariffs on Indian imports due to a failed trade deal, escalating tensions. Trump also announced India would face a penalty over its continued defense ties with Russia. This deepening rift could impact U.S.-India defense cooperation and reshape future arms procurement.

A shocking new report reveals Canada has secretly supplied weapons to Israel amid the Gaza conflict, contradicting its stated export freeze. Activist researchers traced at least 13 arms-linked flights from Toronto, many via civilian carriers like Air Canada and Lufthansa. Items shipped included F-35 parts, radar gear, and ammunition. Elbit Systems is identified as a major recipient. The exposé surfaces just as PM Mark Carney announces recognition of Palestine, admitting Israeli settlement expansions have rendered negotiations "no longer tenable."
