Awesome cat and in crazy ass Russian outfits is priceless...

And that people are going to be checking our work who are legally allowed to call bullshit.

Yes any weapon still in design will fit both 22 and 35. Aim-120C7/D has clipped fins to fit and Aim-9X block 1/2 also fits. Meteor, ASRAAM, Iris-T, are also being integrated in Block 4/5.

This includes employment of tens of thousands of Americans over those 50 years.

COTD!!!!

So much hyperbole and aggression is odd coming from a guy with your sign off, I still love you though.

Raptor and Lightning can carry weapons and fly a clean 600NM radius exercise.

No for standard day/temp (pressure altitude) on a standard runway there is no problem.

The 35 has been performing it’s flight test since the 2012 re-baseline on schedule for the most part. Software on this scale is unprecedented as is devolpingskill three planes at once. The gun is not operative not because there is any problem just that the services decided to prioritize other capabilities.

It seemed to me he meant actual chips and parts. We do use rare earths from China because mining them is an eco disaster that we can’t compete on price becaue of US environmental standards. We do have a stockpile and the ability to mine them here if a waiver was given.

Now playing

Danger zone was so 80s they played it three times in the movie.

Interesting... Though I think parts/supplies will last awhile since you would only need a handful of planes at any one time, they would have quite a bit of fuel since the Nimitz doesn’t need any. I would say you would be good for several months especially if up front you planned cannibalization of certain frames.

Amazingly the F-5 was never copied by the soviets, I think it was to soft and sexy for Russia.

I never served but I will say that I didnt like when they were getting super lenient on visible tattoos during the Sand Wars.

One thing can be said about the SH is that it came in on time and under budget which is unique in modern aircraft.

I put up a post of Tomcats of the Grim Reapers of any one wants to check it out.

China has no oil and is a food and energy importer we are not. The stock market would be frozen and limits put in place. Production would shift to other nations over time.
