It’s hilarious that Butters fucks with him (donations and FB likes) on the outside. I can only imagine how much further that’s pushing him over the edge. And who moves the WA state and is surprised by the amount of liberals there?

How long do you think it’ll be before the really psychotic threatening posts start?

He’s got 2, both for leading formation airfield seizures in OEF and OIF if I’m not mistaken. Interesting. I had the complete opposite experience with his leadership (at multiple levels). He’s got a great reputation in the Talon community, phenomenal pilot. FWIW I’m pretty sure he’s not in running for AFSOC/CC, supposedly ruffled too many feathers when he was CJSOAC-A/CC. Elton maybe, he’s headed to be the SOCOM J3 here this summer.

What do you mean?

It’s official, was announced by the DoD on Thursday.

Switch to Harry’s Razors, one of the better decisions I’ve made in the last few

http://www.airforcemag.com/Features/Pages/2019/January 2019/Donovan-No-Buy-of-Light-Attack-Yet-More-Experiments-More-Types-to-Consider.aspx I’ve stated it before in this thread; the AF does not give a fuck about this program and does not value it highly when viewed alongside acquisitions like B-21, KC-46, F-35, next gen ICBM, 6th gen Air dominance, KC-Z, new advanced trainer etc. SOCOM/AFSOC will not pursue acquisition of this by themselves; AFSOC is prioritizing-130J, more CV-22s, and next gen ISR. Anyone who spontaneously ejaculated in excitement about the possibility of a “jet type light attack” reading my previous post missed the point, the AF is going to continue to drag it’s feet and make vague statements until this goes the way of the dodo.

Copy/pasted from a text a good buddy of mine in the know sent me 3 days ago: AF has fully pivoted to: thanks congress for the money you gave us for light attack procurement this year. We will use it for research and development instead iot buy a jet based LAA by 2020...forget the past two LAA experiments. In the words of the SAF/Financial Management Budget Liaison AO, "sorry man, they just don't give a fuck about you guys."

We haven’t sold war bonds, significantly raised taxes, nor forced the bulk of the American people to shoulder increased cost or responsibility for the wars that we’re approaching the 17.5 year point in yet this guy somehow thinks there’s going to be an outpouring of public investment for building a wall?

AFSOC toyed with this concept in the initial phase of the MC-130W program (what ultimately began the AC-130W). It reared it’s head again during the General Fiel era. At the end of the day they discovered (surprise) that AFSOC crews were specialized for a reason. The amount of METLs required and the flight hours needed to be proficient in said METLs meant no one could possibly maintain proficiency at both MC/AC mission sets.

Why the fuck is STRATCOM tweeting at all?

If you ignore it it’ll eventually go away.

You’ve got a better chance of seeing Jesus blow Buddha than anyone in the CAF flying a USAF Light Attack in the foreseeable future. Barring some major shift in either USAF mentality or leadership the AF is going to continue to drag it’s feet on this until it eventually goes away.

Is PYOB back? The general profile seemed the same. Weird, disjointed posts followed by childlike tantrums and personal threats when proven wrong by others.

Out of last AF Corona, CSAF says it’s the right move but “nows not the right time”. No future timeline for integration given that I’m aware of.

Would a career MC-130 guy be competitive in the application process or are they really looking for previous fast jet/attack experience?

I'm guessing the unofficial 10% truth story involves a case of vodka, a pot of honey, a bear, and the Russian equivalent of "hold my beer and watch this".........

Yeah we can’t allow a “flying boat gap” to develop. Probably need to prioritize this right after F-35, KC-46, B-21, new ICBM, Light Attack, 6th gen Air Dominance, hypersonics, nuclear cruise missile, fixing hurricane damaged F-22s, stopping the invasion of Central Americans, Space Force, maintaining the Afghan live fire training range........

Don’t fall for that penis enlargement ointment trick, it’s another Deep State false flag plot. Just lookup Anaconda Malt Liquor if you need proof.

Was awesome to see my brothers and sisters from AFSOC giving a rapid full court press to help Tyndall out.

It’s been said before but we just didn’t build enough -22s. 3 damaged from that article, plus the gear up incident at Fallon earlier this year. That’s a 4 ship out of commission, probably for years. I’m sure there’s others I’m not thinking about/aware of.

https://www.stripes.com/1.551628 hope they were able to fly most of them out, crazy that a single hurricane could possibly have an impact to national security.

I just planted a pear, curious to see how this turns out. If it somehow Jack’s magic beans turns into a functioning copilot I’m gonna write the CSAF with a solution to our pilot production problem.
