True, a complimenting acquisition with the 46 and 777 tankers using same technology for mil systems (boom, defensive, comms, cargo handling, etc…) would have been my pitch way back in the day
Of course this assumes they would have not fudged up the 46 and would have spun down the 135 also, a fleet of new tanker iron
Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkThe way I heard it from Boeing when I was at Boeing was they originally submitted the 777-200 cargo for the original RFP but the USAF declined it saying it wouldn't fit in existing hanger, changed the rfp to require the same footprint and let the A300/767 battle begin. The 777-200 apparently crushed every requirement of the original RFP for fuel capacity, cargo capacity and troop transport.

Is it split/broken forward of the wing?
They landed gear up? Those are beefy gear to rip off

Real “I’m a tough guy” vibes flowing. Half of Gazas population is under 18 and 70% are 29 or younger. You’re effectively asking blunted, uneducated, young people with no resources - who grew up surrounded by a cult and have been oppressed their whole lives - to just take it into their hands to have an epiphany and “kill the hoodlums.” Oh, it’s also impossible for regular citizens to get weapons, the “hoodlums” are actual savage terrorists, and if you kill them you’ll be likely labeled a terrorist yourself when the narrative is convenient (see the Kurds).
I’m sure you’re also appalled by all the Texans who know there are drug dealers crossing the border - whose drugs make it deep into America - and those Texans don’t “just kill” those “motherf*ckers.” There are a lot of useless 15 year olds in Texas, tell ya what.
I spent ten years there, have you even left the country?

Based on my upbringing, culture, and belief system, Hamas are ing animals. What would you do yourself if someone did those things you mentioned to your family? You'd kill them and I'd help you. I might even help you burn the house. But when you start slaughtering the neighbors and leveling the whole community because they tolerated the killer's existence, I gotta disengage somewhere. When does justice become revenge?
I agree with your statement, however this is where I have issue with the people living in Gaza. Hamas oppressed you as residents = agreed / Israel is bombing and destroying your homes and towns because Hamas is imbeded inside your homes, hospitals, stores etc... You cannot convince me that the residents there "don't know who Hamas players are", then for the sake of your families, town, wellbeing kill those motherf*ckers. If the Palestinians as a people would literally kill these hoodlums hiding in thier towns then bombs wouldn't be falling from above.
If this was happening here, we as residents would be stacking bodies faster than the military to keep ordinance off our heads. At some point they can't be victims and do nothing about it.

If they've never personally been to the middle east, I dont really value their opinion on the subject.
This is always my first question when I meet someone talking about anything middle east, "have you actually been there, no then STFU."

Amazing how many times the Navy seems to leave us on our own only to later say, "sorry thought you were dead"
Aka - this incident / Chapman etc

Source? I’m only seeing protests outside these embassies.
Well I suppose since hate speech is now considered assault, then protesting at an embassy would be an "attack" ..... maybe???

My point was that he wasn’t going to find someone on this forum that is pro Hamas’s actions.
I am.
I hope those f*ckers keep doing everything they are doing and more/worse. So that way the entire world will acknowledge the lack of reason for them existing; we need them to continue to show who they are and continue to demonstrate how little they care for life so the bleeding hearts don't start taking pity on/for them.
Let's see evil for exactly it is and crush it once and for all.
We are a nation and society that has become immune to realities of war and fascinated with it because too few have actually been there. Time for the atrocities to be seen so it can finally take the "cool" out of war for those that haven't seen it.

Anyone with recent knowledge of Klamath Falls, looking to relocate there for small town living and land at reasonable prices wondering if that still describes the area.

It’s literally a free SBR, no logical reason to wait on that! So yeah, I did it right away via e forms and it took about 1.5 months. Just wanted everyone who’s afraid of the illogical ATF boogeyman theory to know it is in fact, not an issue.
Yet... 😉

Seems to me like a chance to prove how "stealthy" the 35 really is.
