This is Jalopnik, you’re looking for Gawker.

You don’t need Su-30SMs to fight ISIS. Russia is playing a different game.

It’s slowly starting to appeal. When they’re dirty and have stuff hanging off them I might be more into it. Probably never happen due to the stealth requirements of the paint or whatever it is they coat these things in, but a gray/brown/green camo would make it look awesome.

I was hiking up in the mountain right near Hill AFB when I heard a very close jet buzz the cliffs - it was an F-35 below my altitude cruise by, roll out and come around for a landing. It was by far the coolest thing i’ve seen all year.

After they got about 30ft away the dental floss connecting their cups broke and communication was lost. They’re all just chillin submerged 30ft from dock trying to send carrier pigeons but they keep drowning. Fuckin pigeons.

Say what you will about the reliability, efficacy, logic, readiness, survivability, cost, feasibility, etc. of our recent military hardware, but you have to admit it’s sexy.

Yep, my experience has been that the low production volume of military hardware means that a lot of stuff is less polished than what you’d expect from a consumer product. And in this case, using commodity COTS hardware is probably a feature, since it would make it harder to trace back to any specific country.
