The USN test squadron VX-23 has flown 100 percent biofuel Growler, hopefully the new administration won’t cause the sun to set on this test series...
Proud of your willful ignorance of the article? Why comment then?
We’re through the Looking Glass... Mattis and McMaster are the grown ups in this administration. Military control of strategy has surprisingly become a safety feature.
Even more amazing is its 194mph speed, at those altitudes it must have a cold fusion powered eternal reaction jet...
Comprehensive immigration reform?
The navy guys are really pushing for the F-35C as the “Reaper” for its carrier name.
You walked into that one...
That’s thing is awesome...
Kinja’s the reason we’re here if we’re being honest. It’s the best comment system on the net, and having a cross blog comment system makes it even better.

The Sprint used a 650,000 pound thrust first stage that burned for 1.5 seconds and then a second stage that would have the Sprint going Mach 10 in five seconds. To deal with 7,600mph at low altitude an ablative shield was designed. In the videos you can see that when the second stage gets going the entire missile…
Yeah but we wouldn’t have these sweet pictures...
Now playing
Dirt landing, and more paratroops...
