The Air Force specifically requested Cybertrucks due to concerns that adversaries might use them on the battlefield, citing their reported resistance to normal damage.
They’re damaged by RAIN.
And the sun!
Don’t forget wind, and therefore speed
They’re planning to replace the hillux with the garbage can? Get real government bribed zombies

Lol
The contract stipulates that the Cybertrucks must be towable, non-functional, and have all fluids drained before delivery.
So…
Just average Cybertrucks?
Also, I sure as fuck hope they know to remove batteries from EVs too
I hope they don’t.
I’m sure the military will do their usual job of being very concerned about the environment and minimizing pollution.
/s
ah, theres the excuse to buy all musks useless stock on the taxpayer dime. I’m not sure which is worse, buying ovepriced junk to blow up when plenty of ameircan cars could make just as big an explosion at 1/5th the cost, or using that money to buy bombs we give away to fascists.
So the US government is helping Tesla by buying inventory it can’t sell… sounds about right for this fiasco of an administration.
They’re buying 2 of them. Not exactly bailing anything out.
This is just the government’s way of giving money to Elon while also advertising for his wankpanzer.
FTA:
- The US Air Force Test Center is looking to acquire two Tesla Cybertrucks to use as targets for precision-guided munitions.
Two CyberTrucks isn’t a lot of money.
Also:
- The contract stipulates that the Cybertrucks must be towable, non-functional, and have all fluids drained before delivery.
No fluids means no brake fluid, no transmission fluid, etc. So these things won’t even be drivable. Tesla could simply supply them with a couple of lemons that they are stuck with. If they did that they likely wouldn’t even charge full price.
If they did that they likely wouldn’t even charge full price.
Laughs in military procurement

Elon: “hey government, would you buy some of my trucks?”
Government: “we don’t have any use for those… well, actually…”
No need to even deliver them. Just drop the bombs where they sit in Tesla dealerships.
