Unfortunately more government power = more corporate power at this point.

The most memorable trailers have the best sound design. GOW’s Mad World trailer really stands out.

Assault needs the qualifier of adding terror or fear in TX. You cannot argue that the official was afraid of a blind hit. This is battery if they can prove intent. Problem with it being on the field is the kids who hit him can just have their lawyer argue that they tripped over untied shoe laces. It will be almost…

The rain damage was chalked up as weather tests and cost us money.. err correction earned Lockheed money.

“This is the puncher’s path, and it leads to oblivion.”

We should finish the block and start thinking cheaper upgrades to proven platforms keeping the 35s to combat control which is the only thing they shine at.

23 was faster and more stealthy.
The 22 was more agile and most importantly more complex. Complexity is the single greatest factor for procurement officers. The more complex, the more problems which means more money, and to them that means their percent is earning more.

The costs to benefits in F1 is obscene. If you are winning its not a problem but if you don’t win your car just got advertised as 2nd rate. Koenigseggs does not sell in volume so the marketing side of F1 is moot. It is not feasible for a small company, no matter their engineering skill, to compete in F1.

Yeah they do its call a fister.

I thought the initial force turned the round into a super heated mass that melts the forward plates before passing thru them similar to an EFP.

I wish we made really big armored boats again. Our navy looks sad these days.

There are plenty in the military that want procurement changed, but since it’s a politically placed job position nobody can do anything about it. Politicians like people who play ball even if it hurts us.

Yeah but command is willing to sacrifice an A10. AC130s are basically a special forces only platform. Big army unit commanders have to pull some long strings to get one for an operation.

There is no money in an update for procurement officers. The R&D phase money is where they make their retirement. That’s why on every program these days they want all the best tech not created yet. The longer contacts allows these officers a long post retirement job at these defense contractors.

It produces enough recoil to stall the aircraft in a nosedive. Hell of a gun even better sound.

Not true a drone can’t put fear into the enemy like the A10 can. Plus have you ever called in a 9 line to a drone? It is a total pain because the guy in control of overwatch might not be the guy authorized to drop munitions. Plus the sound of that gun is the greatest moral boost in combat, ever. There is no other CAS…

People always say that about China but fail to realize that if China were to win a regional war there economy would do just fine because they would be in control of many of the most productive countries in the world. This control would allow them to make the steps into their planned consumer economy. People always…

People love to say that about China, but fail to realize if they won a regional war their economy would do just fine because they would have regional control of some of the most productive countries in the world. Everyone just assumes we would win a war with China and Russia. Assuming you will win is actually what…

Which is why we always train old school. We once were calling in arty during an FTX with runners. 2 clicks back to the guns each time no longer than 25 min round trip times full gear. If there was a causality you had to carry the fool to the aid station 1.5 clicks out on your way to the guns. My scout platoon managed…
