  1. I think he meant E-2D Hawkeye. Then their is the P-3 Orion. Its the Navy's land based ASW asset. The P-3 has 4 engines while the E-2 only has 2. And I think they are working on new props for it too. Picture of E-2D:
  2. Awesome photos. What kind of airplane is that weird quazi U-2 looking thing?
  3. Your choice of screen name...wow... I'd say Jewish people are one of the smallest minorities in the AF. Not saying that as a good or bad thing, just statement of fact. At my field training I only saw one name under the Synagogue/Jewish Prayer, and she was a CTA. I decided to never go to any religious services at FT. But, at my old Det there are two other's Jews (which I was actually amazed at, but most of us are from Chicago so proportionately I think it was rather accurate). I have seen Yamakah's (sp?) worn under the blue's service cap and nobody would ever know if you were sporting one under BDU cover anyway. As for Kosher...how closely do you follow Kosher? Just no dairy and meat or also a Rabbi blessing the utensils and preparing the food? Because while it is relatively easy to separate dairy and meat I don't think you will be able to get a Rabbi in at Field Training to prepare the food (my experience).
  4. Just got one with my new car. Looks like this (no clue what kind it is):
  5. Okay this link will be NOT FOR WORK but it is the Opposite of this motivational picture...IE: There is NUDITY!!!! CLICK HERE...Don't open this link if your on a government computer!!!!!
  6. When the B-2 first came out wasn't it not allowed to fly into precip? I thought there was something about its RAM paint or something that didn't like water. I know lately its all weather but still when it was new I could have sworn hearing about it being VFR only or something...hmm off to Google I go...
  7. Any clue when Osprey drops are gonna start happening? I have always had a little itch for Helo's because they are different...so I figure the Osprey must be the best of both worlds...
  8. I'd be interested to see how they figure an F-22 and an Su-47 would go at it. Probably try BVR and nobody can lock eachother up and then just close in and go for guns?
  9. I hope this doesn't come down to pilot error. This would probably be one of the most expensive "oopsies" ever if so.
  10. Out of curiosity, any way to tell if it was a C model? And when the wheels are in the up position do they still rotate? It looks like the tail is the only part of the Hog that is touching the ground. I assume it would just require repairs to the GUA-8A and then a tail inspection or what not and they be back on flying status? That doesn't look like any where near enough damage to total the plane...
  11. I'd venture to bet the VSTOL capability or what not the -35C has would be a bitch of an engineering problem to make with two engines. Just a thought.
  12. Haha, or maybe the trunk monkey in an F-15E looks strikingly similar to a WSO...food for thought.
  13. It's just as fair as stealth, laser guided munitions, and heat seeking a2a weapons...those are all as fair as UCAVs or UAVs or whatever they are called these days.
  14. Altitude and distance for a 3* glide slope distance x 300 + airport elevation so if your 10 miles out on an ILS and the airport elevation is 500ft: 10nm x 300 + 500ft = 3500 MSL
