It’s bias because not two weeks ago Terrell was saying something very similar:

Awesome Tyler.. though I gotta say Foxtrot Alpha (along with Io9) has been my favorite of the Gawker sites and I'll miss your posts here.

Letter to Blizzard:

Military, aviation or naval history of the 20th century.

Ok. How long till they do have these capabilities? Nevermind the fact that both operate submarines surprisingly effectively

“Fa loves Pa!”

Unless they capture an Allied Naval Yard, they’ll have to make do with their giant squids.

Cherry-pick much?

I worked 10 years in the defense industry, mostly for aerospace companies. I’ve worked another 15 years in other high-tech industries. And do you know where most of my co-workers were from? It’s not the USofA.

Yep, a LOT of the folks designing and programming the high-tech stuff that makes the F22, the…

CAPTAIN: If he fires one I’ll fire one.

I find it interesting that the construction of a new generation A-10 is seen as impossible, yet they can make a carbon copy of the B-2 with new intervals.

Is that a Yale Bulldog or Gtown one? Just wondering. Tough loss to nova for the Hoyas today.

This may be off topic but this part made me laugh “The invasion of Iraq was done with such stunning ferocity, and ruthless efficiency that it made famous military tacticians, like Erwin Rommel, look completely incompetent by comparison.” Please tell me you are joking. Anyone who knows anything about Rommel and his…

No Tyler the reason is obvious. The Mi 24 and all of it’s derivatives can be heavily armoured and is a great deal faster. Note the wings/stubs. They offload the main rotor during flight and increase the top speed. The MI8 while a great helicopter is much more vulnerable to ground fire and missile attack. Plus with its…
