Sorry, but no. One does not need positive consent to provide information or ideas to others. ESPECIALLY in college, where half the reason for going there is to be exposed to ideas which may offend, disgust or haunt, but ultimately enlighten. That is not a secret, and it’s not just a truism. It is the purpose of…

No, Harrier II is for the AV-8B/GR.5/7/9 regardless of radar.

It’s AMRAAM...and as the other poster said it’s part of the normal loadout for F-15’s flying strike missions. In fact, it’s more common for a Strike Eagle to fly with 2 AIM-120 AMRAAM or even 1 AIM-9 and 1 AIM-120 than it is to fly with a pair of Sidewinders.

A quick note: The Coast Guard was a part of DoD for most of their history, until they were placed in the Department of Homeland Security when it was established post-9/11.

The airframe for the F-35B is some $10 million cheaper than the F-35C(105M vs 115M), but the STOVL engine more than makes up for that by being $45 million rather than $25, making the B the most expensive model by $10 million.

F-35 is designed to do what the F-16C actually does (medium range light bomber), not what the original F-16A was designed to do (short range day fighter). It carries a better payload, further, on internal fuel alone. It’s an all around improvement. It even accelerates better with a payload.

The F-16 will usually carry only 2 bombs and 2 AIM-120 on its actual combat missions, the other pylons are filled with fuel tanks or left empty to reduce weight and increase range. The F-35 will match that performance on internal fuel alone.

Aircraft carriers are pretty much built on a one-by-one basis. No two Nimitz class ships are alike. Each ship is a slight to moderate improvement over the previous hull.

Seawolf is a much bigger design than Virginia, about 15% bigger. It uses a different reactor and is arranged considerably differently (no vertical launch missiles tubes on Seawolf.

the CHAMP equipped JASSM-ER will need no terminal homing sensor or warhead at all, which could make space for more fuel.

Owe the bank $100,000 and they own you.

What a childish statement. Really. Children have trouble realizing that two conflicting statements can be true. Adults, on the other hand, should be able to accept the fact that A) Other people have it worse and B) they are STILL being screwed over personally.

Millennials are not getting married because marriages are expensive and millennials have little money.

It’s only an argument if you can state the other side’s opinion in a way that they agree with. You don’t have to argue for it, you just have to prove you’re not misunderstanding it.

I have a feeling that Littlefinger can handle pregnancies. I mean, the man DID run a brothel and that’s pretty much the #1 cause of employee downtime. You can’t run a whorehouse with everyone on maternity leave.

What you’re saying that an avowed elitist arming a group of radical egalitarian fundamentalists and given them the power to imprison and try at-will while at the same time letting them undermine the king at every turn is NOT a good long-term strategy?

Being rich is like being drunk: it doesn’t change the person, it just brings their inner self out for all to see.

You have chosen...wisely.

Larry Ellison is a shitbag, which is neither here nor there, but deserves mentioning anyway.

I was going to call you a bad person, then I realized 2/3 of the people I know that know SQL call it ess-cue-el and that your pun would fall on many deaf ears.
