This is a MASSIVE money grab. Instead of paying up front and outright owning the equipment. Governments will now rent equipment and Infinitum. They will pay for that tank, ship, fighter etc multiple times over the lifetime of that equipment.

You also won’t have old equipment that can be just given away or sold at a discounted rate to allies or friends like Ukraine when an emergency occurs.
