18 month developmental timeline is impressive.

C-5 and AF 1 both use a version of the CF-6. Of course how they attach to the airframe is where I see this investigation headed. Props and engine mounts keep maintainers/engineers up at night for a reason.

Here's a funny. I don't think I could fool anyone I'm a bot but I asked Chat GPT the other day a random question about the B-21. I have no insight and I'm certainly not wanting anyone to reveal anything they shouldn't but when I asked it how many LRSOs could be loaded on a B-21 it calculated just over 6 (of course you can't load a partial missile) based on open-source information and some assumptions base on known dimensions of the things like the ALCM etc. How accurate the calculation turns out to be remains to be seen.

I don't know and certainly more to the story. I thought the white and also by all appearances unmarked vehicle moved into her. Normally an accident no more severe than this would be investigated by local PD. Take her information and let local PD take her into custody since she was a US Citizen. I'm curious why it appears all charges were dropped as well. https://www.newsweek.com/us-citizen-dragged-car-border-patrol-chicago-10924948

This has a Nexus to a whole lot of threads and discussions on BO. Assuming events occurred as they appear I admit I find it disturbing to say the least. Had it been my family member I can't use the words I would like on a public forum.

The implications are mind boggling. 🤔

Sorry, too subtle humor on my part about the stop sign. Also, location of mishap was south of Kitchen Lake Park in OKC

That's what she said. (Just south of Kitchen Lake Park in OKC)

I didn't jump onto the Glock train until about 3 years ago. G19 Gen 5 I got at the exchange, and I really shoot it as well as any pistol I've ever owned. When I saw all the SOCOM guys carrying it I thought there must be something there. I admit I was old school and convincing myself to get a pistol without a manual safety took a while.

Interesting to see a firefighting version.

Sounds like they need to consult some good ole boy southern duck hunters to cover it in Real Tree Camo as a finishing touch.

Circular run of his torpedo

https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/colombian-president-alleged-drug-boat-from-his-country-white-house-baseless/ Sounds like the bad guys are trying a PR campaign to help ease the pressure. I doubt anyone on the boats were actually innocent.

I get your point, but I see a big difference between an in-state deployment with the consent of your governor on an international border and going out of state. The local population in Illinois may not be very supportive of another state's troops. It's starting to sound almost like a COIN fight in the US. I'm sure a lot of the targets of ICE raids have popped smoke and moved somewhere else while the heat is on in Chicago. Like a game of whack-a-mole. Damn where have I seen this before? 🤦‍♂️

Shot down by an unmanned boat? That's a new wrinkle.
