just wait. tankers wont move out of AMC. they will stay and they will move the 130s out into ACC (TAC2.0)

lol 130 million dollar per plane busted by 50 million dollar radar/missile upgrade. we need a combination of LO strike/superiority aircraft (low numbers) and high punch low cost tradition platforms (high numbers). that way we can go in, knock out the radar and missiles and make them come and duke it out with us if they really want to.

so we are moving back towards SAC? seriously

Solution: moar gun pawds!

no worries well always just throw a pod on it call it a day

so basically we are doomed to continue to repeat our mistakes and call the end of the dogfight only to have our dudes out matched at guns range?

was reprimanded by head of ACC, moved out of the post... pending transfer to some desk deep in the pentagon. case closed also, was i the only one who felt the pilot was basically saying ditch all the f-16s and keep the a-10? WHAAATTTTTTT!?!

Can anyone address the stupidity in moving all the comms BACK into Cheyenne mountain? As a civilian working for the sub contractor that built all the interface equipment in 2007 im absolutely livid at Raytheon for this about face cash grab /rant

Deny till you die.... seriously how many pilots die each year of things that could have been fixed if they were reported sooner (some times YEARS sooner) Another problem is the Healthcare industry. there is a difference between being sad from a divorce and being "clinically dperess" but the DSMs are written so ambiguously that they can be interpreted in such a broad way. what happens is the dude thats sad his wife left him, goes to a therapist to talk through it is labeled as "clinically depressed" because the insurance company requires an ICD code and diagnosis to pay out on the visit. see why people dont want to get help. because in most cases where just talking to someone would be enough, our healthcare industry REQUIRES the doctors to label them

Marine First, Officer Second, Pilot Third. pretty much sum up the Corps.

thats why lol

Dude.... dont say yiu have a good idea about how everything works and then seriously talk about going for a feaking nav slot to pilot

Then whatvare they flying in bcourse?

x2

elaborate?

Dude. read up on the airlines before you start saying things like fly for the regionals. You should be able to get your atp and get on at a major if you do it right

was wondering when someone would catch on

haha shhhhhhhhh ;)

lol "force multiplier"... what a farce. all i will do is point to the 2008 (yes 2008) RAND report that tore our entire way of thinking apart by pointing out exactly what Napoleon said, its a numbers game.

I was in the same boat of being on the fence. dont know the 130 unit but honestly to me, it came down to what puts me up in the air the most and the reality from the guard side was not a fighter. now AD may be (is) different so YMMV

^^^^^^^ this dont know why they didnt swear you in at MEPS... but it is MEPS so that doesnt surprise me.

surprised youre doing the FC1 separate for the MFS. but yeah any major base can do the FC1 is the MFS part of that process that suuuck

dude if you think this is bad, get ready for your year long journey waiting around to go to OTS ;)

lol like you really have a choice

And there you have the future of the forces... and this is why they think throwing money at a problem works.
