No one is going to walk away from that kind of alliance tomorrow, sure. Stuff like "we're going to remotely disable military equipment we've sold you" is going to have consequences though. It's not walking away from alliances, it's just focusing on more stable countries.

To clarify: it's not exactly "remotely disable".
It's "block everything that depends on US clouds", which is a considerably downgrade (because you can't upload all mission parameters to an airplane without going through the cloud, and you can't use self-diagnosis features), but not entirely a kill switch. Close enough, though.

Proof of this happening or even having the capability of happening? There is none.
