  1. Pretty crazy. Lots of videos that confirm this view.
  2. F-104s out of Kennedy Space
  3. Yeah, I was taken aback, said 2 star had been at a couple meetings, visited my boss to talk shop / bullshit a bit and seemed ok overall. I was surprised that a fighter guy would crap on it, LA posed and still poses no threat to the manned fighter mission. They operate in different roles now and really even during GWOT. When A-1s and AT-37s were introduced in Vietnam, they didnโ€™t take missions from -105s, -4s, etcโ€ฆ same thing in GWOT and now.

    Over the last 25 years I've been on this forum, I thought I'd already read the most inane and pointless chaff possible. (checks Baseops and reads this thread) Ope, I guess not. This is the low-water mark. Carry on.

    Back at cha. Biff says adios and you get in my grill over this? Dude dove in. He was a gonner regardless of crew actions, including trying the shut the engines down if they saw him. Sorry Biff, but dude got triggered by me for some reason and not anyone else, so calling it out.

    agree, but point of order in that video it'd be hard to even see that guy from the cockpit
  8. I've seen some pretty questionable "boots" in shoe clerk world. Some of these rules end up happening because we have asshats out there clearly abusing the intent of the regs in uggs or coyote brown air force ones. But I don't disagree with you that we are refocusing on stuff that absolutely doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things and it has been a significant downward trend for quite a while.

    Thrust production (and the associated vacuum pressure in the intake) drops off very quickly without combustion, while inertia keeps the fans spinning for much longer. Besides, what point are you making? Fuck it, let him die? You think you're going to continue taxiing to the runway after they wipe his brains off the acoustic panels? Christ, are you this obnoxious in real life? ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚ I know you're putting it out there with your user name, but still...

    Saw this tidbit in an article about Norway acquiring the Whiskey https://breakingdefense.com/2025/07/us-clears-norway-to-purchase-hh-60w-helicopters/ This move shifts the mission from the Huey, originally slated for the Boeing MH-139 Grey Wolf, to the more advanced HH-60W.
  12. Big Air Force to AFSOC:
  13. What's crazy about UKR and all their drone stuff is they assign point values to targets, just like a video game. I'm waiting for their PR department to ramp up a TV show to highlight things a kill leader board with cool names like Dr Boom and The Kill of the Week ala Zombieland.... poor flat bastard.
  14. OA-1K can't fly IMC yet so they aren't ready to be a tanker...

    I'm not so sure anything in space is safe if shit really kicks off
  16. Over the years, Iโ€™ve seen numerous discussions here about the potential impact of Cyber on warfighters, the threat posed by China, and what the AF and DoD should do. i highly recommend anyone interested in the current focus on 2027 and beyond should listen to a podcast called โ€œTo Catch a Thief.โ€ There are 9 episodes and it is well worth listening to, especially if you have more than a 20 minute drive to/from work. If you canโ€™t muster that much attention span, just listen to the last episode. Nicole Perleroth worked for the NYT, and reminds mo of the stories of a conservative being โ€œa liberal who got robbed.โ€ check it out, you should be able to use it for PME credit or CEUs if you have any computer certification. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/to-catch-a-thief-chinas-rise-to-cyber-supremacy/id1798267956
