    Yep, at 12 units a day, Zika is the least of your worries.

    Yep, at 12 units a day, Zika is the least of your worries.

    As much as we loved Tomcats when they were airborne and protecting us, I still chuckle at the thought of sitting in my carrier group admiral’s daily brief and have CAGMO go on and on and on about how many Tomcats were broken and the new and exotic ways in which they were breaking.

    NFZ = No Fly Zone

    Time for a new AIM-54 Phoenix-like missile. A B-52 or B-1 or whatever the arsenal ship turns out to be could carry a lot of them on a rotary launcher in the internal bays as well as on hardpoints on the wings. It also be interesting to pair such a missile with the F-15C/E so that they could stand-off behind a forward…

    Yeah I was going to jump on here to wonder how Tyler could write this entire article without mentioning _Flight of the Old Dog. The scary thing is that novel was published in 1987—the B52 was old then!

    The “aerial net” sounds very analogous to the IVIS that Clancy described.

    So the B-1R may yet fly? Cause that would be an awesome use of the B-1 airframe, and finally restore its Mach 2+ speed as well as finally opening up the external hardpoints for conventional weapons. Imagine a B-1R loitering overhead with 125,000 lbs of freedom read to drop at a moments notice.

    Spraying on a coating of oil really helps, and the waffle maker I have is already pretty non-stick. I did it by the sink, so just let the cheese & sauce ooze strategically there to be scraped up. Wasn’t that bad!

    Except for those pissing-children car window stickers.

    I actually can’t tell if you’re saying Popular mechanics disproved this video above as false, or if they’ve already proved the fact that jet fuel could and was a contributor to the collapse of the towers, thus proving that the Government Black Suit Illuminati Men of Intrigue didn’t it and disproving the theory that it…

    The fact that we need to go to such lengths at all shows how truly stupid these theorists can be. Melt is basically another way of liquefying through heat. What’s happening in the video isn’t melting, necessarily, but it higher heat it makes perfect sense that steel becomes substantially more pliable. When you add the…

    I prefer the gif version.

    As much as I love the Tomcat they were by all accounts maintenance nightmares.

    Politics chose the YF-22 over the YF-23. The YF-23’s performance is still classified. Also, the F-22 wasn’t more maneuverable in every part of the flight envelope. Part of the reason Northrop lost was due to problems they were having with the B-2 at the time, so the Air Force “lost confidence” in them and chose the…

    Carmageddon: Reincarnation is available on Steam as Early Access. I bought it for 20 euro a couple weeks ago. The package included Carmageddon, Carmageddon 2 and Carmageddon TDR 2000.
