Forget coordinated attacks, this means sheer human stupidity could easily do the same.

that damn dashblet, I mean Garmin, I mean infotainment, I mean herpe on the dashboard needs to be redesigned.

Porsche had already whored themselves out. It's called the 924/944 and 928. In the 80's, they WERE the Cayenne/Macan/Panamera of the Porsche world.

That's just something Porsche fans tell themselves to feel better. Porsche managed to build the 959 without whoring themselves out.

Here's a good rule of thumb. If Fox News is the only source you can find, it might not actually be a vetted fact.

Oh jesus. You come on here throwing out Fox-news clips, then want to lecture others on how you can't force democracy at the point of a gun, and that you just have to deal with secular tyrants sometime?

Which changes the center of gravity, gives you no access to the surface for heat exchange, gonna need some gearing, lots of stuff that likely won't fit.

I didn't mean to even suggest that the Russians aren't making good systems - they're making fantastic systems. However, they have a different design philosophy than we do... I saw a great interview with Mikhail Kalashnikov about why he loved the AK-47. He talked about how you could fill the thing with sand or pull…

I see other commenters complaining that the Iraqis are using Russian hardware - I feel a need to defend them.

I did a cursory check and found no instances of either China or Russia complaining about air to air intercepts of their aircraft by the US. (or any other country for that matter) Either in the why or the how.

this is just international one-up-manship. Trained professionals of competing countries wagging their dicks. If you don't think we do the same to them your crazy. Hopefully not barrel rolls like this described.... And I do doubt the validity of the story.... Because that shit is crazy.... But trust me this is like…

Save the cheap jingoism for later. Over the last few decades the US has been encroaching within the sphere of influence of these countries. Now that they are capable of again to answer in kind, people act surprised.

Nobody is saying that something should happen. It just shouldn't happen. Especially in international airspace. Despite what you say, this kind of thing is on the uptick and it's being done in a dangerous way. When US fighters intercept Russian TU-95s in American airspace (or close to it) there are no shenanigans like…

They did it during the hawkish Bush2 administration and nothing happened. There is really nothing you can do when they harass you so far from home. Remember 135 miles from Hainan, many miles for us to Okinawa or where we came from. What do you propose we do in such a case?

That is a two way street, considering how long the US has been prodding both China and Russia over the last few decades...

Kind of silly to suddenly act surprised when they start to retaliate...

I saw this post on Reddit by user iksbob regarding sprint cars...

wow. As a veteran I can say this story is riveting. You need discipline. Order. Hierarchy. You have to have organization to be successful. But I'm also open minded and a student of history. The Japanese Army lost many battles to us in WW2 because their subordinates wouldn't stand up to their commanders and…

The way Gant was treated was on of our biggest internal fuckups of the entire war.

I don't see how this particular post could be "war industry propaganda". It's not like any peaceful country is going to think "We need to buy more tanks! For ballet!"

who the fuck gives this guy a loan to buy a $100k car in the first place, when, from what I can tell from a court records search, he declared bankruptcy in 2007 to dodge what appears to be a couple grand worth of bills? I guess when he realized (again, obviously) he couldn't pay, he figured he needed a way out. So…
