Don't forget Point of Existence for BF: V

Looks like the driver flipped his shit.

Russia is posturing to gain dominance in the Arctic region where there is believed to be large quantities of oil and other natural resources. Having control over these resources is vital for economic and political strength. Russia is basically saying "hey, this is ours and we have the military might to fight you for…

Jesus christ, Russia is steering the entire planet towards war.

I agree, there's all sorts of cool shit going on that I only hear about after it happened.

Depends.

I've seen a lot of clickbait type stuff show up on Foxtrot Alpha lately. Your major articles are still just as good as ever but I'm seeing things that don't really seem like your kind of thing.

So like, are we supposed to just get used to these advertisements thinly veiled with an "article" of a similar subject now? It didn't take long for Gawker to sink its teeth into Foxtrot Alpha.

People were also smaller overall, back then.

The bent wings meant that the nose of the plane was very high up off the ground compared to the tail, which put the cockpit at steep upwards angle.

I will agree with your sentiment about the P-38. I love it to bits.

I'm a huge fan of the F4U Corsair. The thing could hold a ton of weapons, including rockets. It was cool looking and was a successful design. I hear that it was a bitch to land on a carrier with the bent wing design, though. My top favorite WWII planes (in no specific order) are the F4U, P51D, and P-38. The P40…

This seems to be more than just "ink on paper". They say they have lab data that backs up their claims.

Cautiously optimistic is the best description of how I am right now. It's hard not to get excited about news like this, but countless time's we've all been let down as "breakthroughs" have been torn apart by the scientific community and proven as little more than malarkey.

Indeed, I don't believe Lockheed Martin's efforts could be crushed like the Tucker.

It's unfortunate this ship isn't just a little bit bigger with a launch catapult and catchwire, because as it is, it seems like it's just a gimped aircraft carrier. That being said, I imagine a ship carrying up to 20 F-35's despite their complex issues, would still be a serious force to be reckoned with.

"best road car possible"

Good idea, bad implementation.

Yes, we need to fill all that space.
