    I'm sure there are many, but on a recent out-the-door-to-deployment speech, his message was roughly: "Don't f this up, my reputation depends on it." How did you get 4 stars? Oh, wait, apparently that CYA mentality is how. A far cry from a Patton ("You don't win by dying for your country, you do it by making the other poor bastard die for his" stuff) or Eisenhower ("I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty, and skill in battle" stuff) in the leadership category.

    I'm going both, although a ton of the GSC problem is O-5 careerism bs.

    Except communities are small and people can easily figure out who you're talking about. Far more "anonymous" than anonymous. Finally. Previously you just sounded like a butt hurt whiner, frankly. No, I'd agree these are not great, and things like "unsure how to work sensor" absolutely go back to a concern I listed previously, not studying tactics.

    One possible issue is that the further you have to be from the target at launch (e.g. due to threats), the larger sts your cruise missile physically needs to be, which affects a few factors from carriage on airframes to end-game against threats. If you have something that can push further in, it takes care of part of that problem.

    If you're going to publicly call some dude out for being a terrible pilot and having a terrible attitude, back it up. Otherwise, don't do it.

    Good cop out.

    NG is really straying far from the T-38 design here...

    Still nothing of substance. You're essentially just bashing someone on a difference of opinion. And your sq environment could absolutely be terrible without you knowing, if for instance you're the prick commander's pet and you just don't see it because your world is rainbows and unicorns.

    Homestead doesn't generate a guy named Killer by being in a great area.

    Maybe your sq sucks; I'd be more worried if the attitude issues were things like not studying tactics etc. But I was really referring to the flying problems. At face value, turning left isn't different from one airframe to the next. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

    Plenty of weapons with off-axis capability that allow employment from the wheel.

    Exactly, standard practice.

    That mechanism is already in place. Those decisions are already made every day, real-time based on the situation.

    No longer, since spring 2014 when Gen Grosso took over and Woodward retired.

    He's a troll, so he probably can't.

    It just requires a one time meeting with the AG to clear things up, so as long as you've got that scheduled, NBD.

    Just because it's legal for the CC to do so, doesn't mean that it's smart (or right).

    Bet Putin is loving the disintegration of the EU.
