"a strong victory for the Obama Administration which has been criticized for waiting too long to militarily engage ISIS"

This forum is a place to discuss military technology; mostly aircraft. Not so much for glorifying war. Sometimes I think that my interest in such things is not positive, or even unChristian, but my dad was a cold war pilot, and this tech stuff is just so cool. I don't mean to glorify the killing that is obviously…

It is too far down the rabbit hole...

All good headlines are click bait. That's what they're for. Just read the article and get on with it, ffs...

Andrei... you've lost another submarine?

Still a fine movie...

Enough to buy 300 F-14s.

Well; you looked...

Sweet.

Saw that first image and I immediately thought of:

Well... they're both kind of over the top, aren't they?

Germany doesn't have the adversarial union-management relationships that exist in USA, Canada, UK and other places.

Is it a big shocker?
Why wouldn't they want to know what the unions are up to? Militant unions cost companies $$. Sometimes, so much so that the company needs to shut down operations...

Yes. I agree. A P-47 Thunderbolt is miles/years ahead of the Wright Flyer. But the P-47 is miles/years behind the F-15 Eagle. We are making great advances, but still we're many years away from eliminating the pilot. Many, many years...

Awesome pics.
Let's hope he shows up okay...

That's a great quote. However, he definitely would not ditch his radio.

I think MarcusVI meant that we need CNN, too...

Very bad for downward visibility. NASA is redesigning space suits for this reason (among others)...

one that is in the far distant future
