Why can't we just have a technology transfer agreement? Purchase the ships from Finland but make them at a US shipyard? Other countries do that with US defense manufacturers all the time. Purchase items, but with the condition that it will be manufactured in that country.
Yeah, I like to buy that ship again and while you are at it I want you to use imperial bolts, doors opening to the right and extra tall showers.
A copy job is never just a copy job.
