Hire a PMC (mercenaries) to go in and wage an illegal war, destabilizing the government and taking back the plant, hopefully you can then also install a government friendly to you. Obviously.

What’s really nice about Bucee’s to many people though is that the discriminate against truck drivers a bit. IIRC they don’t allow Semi’s into their lots, so if you’ve got an 18 wheeler, I think you need to park it separately and then walk in a bit further. Provides the “appearance” that it’s for families and…

I mean, sometimes ya just gotta fill a kiddy pool...

Bribery, good old fashioned bribery... That’s what it takes nowdays!

One of the colleges I went to did this, it’s on track to pay for itself in another 3 years, and will begin being profitable in 2020. Long payback timeframe, but easy to finance.

I’m in Texas, its how I think now.

Lets limit it just to highways then, and use the jersey barriers on either edge as support structure, just like we do currently with over highway signs, It could also be limited to straight areas as a way to reduce likelyhood of being hit.

All this energy gathering roadway bullshit is stupid... you want to use the surface area of roads to generate electricity? Build solar panels - wait for it - Above the surface to create “tunnel” or whatever. It’d actually decrease the cost of road surfaces due to creating some protection from the environment. I’d have…

Woah woah, we don’t want any mustang related casualties... Think of the children.

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...)
