Yeah, but i squee’d with joy when I saw him for that 1/8th of a second... Missy never really did it for me, terrifying true, but not nearly as sadistic as John Simm’s version.

Ah cool, glad to hear you’ve got something you like.

I really want to know what it’ll do around the Nurburgring...

Conformal stealth bombs? can that be a thing? that sounds fancy.

Yep... That’s a key component for my doubt of the platform.

Get the Pelican air 1535. It’ll last at least another two decades.

I’m definitely no expert on stealth, but isn’t it mostly a shape thing?

Green Flag and Steel Knight are convincing, but while there is some evidence of effectiveness, I think the maturation of micro-munitions smaller than the SDB in the ~5 pounds of explosives class are going to be critical to making the F-35 a good CAS platform. Currently internal stores for ground support are only two…

Probably a good idea lol

Yeah I bookmarked it. It’ll get there, but its too swiss army knife for me. It’ll do a lot of things decently, but sometimes you need a real can opener, not the shitty one in your pocket you’ve opened 300 beers with...

Never been to that website before, good read thanks! The minimunitions are definitely something that would allow for more than just one or two passes of CAS. The moving target weakness that’s identified in the article is rather flabbergasting to have not been addressed yet, as that’s crucial for CAS.

So yeah that’s incredibly unsafe... Bullets fired from a handgun such as that, which is likely 9mm are extremely dangerous beyond half a mile. This is work for a stick with a knife on it or something...

That said, anybody in Austin wanna go shooting? (Safely of course...)

That’s true, Block 4 is going to be a major improvement with SDBs.

I know, I’m all about the BBBBBRRRRRRRRRTTTTTT, and bombs are more often used, but armchair general me says that the F-35B just doesn’t have the payload. So the big variable in CAS is if its a contested environment or not, ie does the enemy have fighters and SAMs. In which case, sure F-35 is much more survivable, but…

Yeah I’m still not convinced the F-35B will be good at CAS...

I’m so upset I’m missing NYIAS by a week... I’ll be in NYC this weekend not next...

One of the main considerations when purchasing a car, is that I don’t want other people to ask me for rides. So any car with an essentially unusable back seat for sitting adults is perfect!

I’ve got a lease on a 2o17 Elantra Limited from September, and I was rather pissed I didn’t get the memo about this before signing on the dotted line. I’m a fan, but I think the weakest point is that the tires are designed for a tread life of like 39846720934867520345 miles. Warm tires spinning from the start being…

I’ve got a 2017 Elantra Limited, not the 201 hp sport version, but I average 27.1 over the last 4k miles, its vastly more city driving than highway though. When aggressive I can get down into the low 20's, and when conservative on the highway I’ll get 45+

So Jason, there’s a few columns I’d like to see added. Lets assume that all of these costs are solo costs, I’d like to see what it costs when going with 3 friends, and what it costs with like 10 total people. So like, with an airplane ticket, going solo makes a ton of sense, but with 10 people not as much, since…
