Looks like a B-2 moving about in the daylight. Right shape, right engine location...

No, what I am saying, Is cannon range battles have and could conceivably happen again. Cruise missiles are a poor choice, but an SM-2 attacking surface targets would be great against a skiff...

Tyler, I did read read the article......What I am saying, I am in the navy, and most of the issues from a war game that is over 5 years old has already have been addressed. The introduction of automated 25mm vs the old manned versions we had. Also, anything with a gas turbine is anything but lumbering......It can go…

DDG-51.

It's funny you bring that up.... It's happened in Vietnam (battle of Haiphong), and against Iran. The truth of the matter is, the closer you get to the littoral, the more important those kind of things become.

What was not said in the article , especially about the ones about the convoy....is most navy surface combatants carry helicopters capable of carrying hellfires, penguins, and torpedos....as well as since the article you have cited, most of the ships have recived CIWS and 25mm bushmaster upgrades.

I've spent some time in Japan, and can corroborate everything Aqua Line is saying. His name is from a famed stretch of road running under Tokyo bay that lot of tuning shops use to tun their car because it's straight, no cameras, and there is no crosswind because it's a tunnel.... I've been doing 250kph in my…

Panasports....enough said. Good enough for a Lotus 7, good enough for Takumi, good enough for me.

Smokey Yunick. Was as inventive an engineer as any in F1. Was innovative enough to be on both GMs and Ford's payroll. Hot-Vapor engine could have been a contender.

For all of the people claiming diesel is always more expensive then gasoline, it really depends on your own location. Last time I was home (Chicago), Diesel was .30 cheaper per gallon then even regular.

As a proud WRX owner, I'm going to respectfully disagree with you on tuned/modified WRXs. There is a right way, and a wrong way to tune these cars. Especially with how fast the GD/GG models blew out shocks, it became a point of economy to replace the high wear/high overhead struts with aftermarket coil-overs, provided…

Even though I know it's a Maserati with some heritage, I still think of Miyazaki's film studio....

I really think this list is full of holes........Like to the point where you could have one entry just be "I4 with a turbo. So many great four cylinder engines with a turbo charger. 3SGTE, SR20DET, VW 1.8/2.0T, EJ family of engines. They're much more ubiquitous then anything on this list, and much more "Jalop" if I…

No, they only try to claim other people's territories. And yes, they have repeatedly violated other countries territorial waters (13 miles from coast, per international law, unlike the 200 miles they claim) while ignoring the equally valid claims of it's neighbors. Your Logic is unsound as the bombers didn't violate…

Cruisers are named after battles, and alas, this one is named after the revolutionary war victory at Cowpens.

Actually, it never was stated if the bombers actually had nukes on them. Every that carries bombs has the ability to carry nuclear weapon, as does every ship that can fire tomahawks has the ability to fire nuclear tomahawks. BTW: China did kind of Invade Vietnam TWICE since we left in 1975, and also has a 2000 year…

Ships are not that easy to kill, and if you don't believe me, look up the stories about the Cole, the Stark, and the Samuel B. Roberts. A carrier is a difficult target because it can move quickly, relocate itself, and have a defensive ring of ships that can engage incoming aircraft as well as anti-ship cruise missiles.

Twin ring Motegi......The others are used for testing or "retired." Motegi is still in active service.

I think a breathed on Stagea 260RS.....The only non GT-R to get the fabled RB26DETT.

He had a poor start to the year, which is understandable, but the way he his second half of the season is looking he will be a better driver if he can maintain his ride. I think there was pressure in the English media for a hometown driver. The British press and fans were extremely negative about him.
