lol if you’re talking ICBM or ICBM-like Chinese anti-ship missiles, you might even be talking about Mach 10-20.

Electric != hydraulic. Hydraulic steering assist has been around forever and can be incredibly tactile and responsive. Electric steering assist is totally different.

Are you suggesting we go back to the days of appropriately priced games from the 90's? $79.99 MSRP? Inflation adjusted, that’s about $124.99 in today-dollars.

VERY tall gearing. First off, most drag cars at this level are using something akin to a powerglide. It’s only a two-speed transmission. A lot of transmissions in “normal” cars worry about powerband efficiency and the like. It’s trying to keep the engine in peak *efficiency* range as much as possible while still…

It’s absolutely an epic tale. 928 guys LOVE their cars (at least the old guard guys do). There are some amazing people in that community who engineer/fab their own parts and sell them reasonably to the rest of the 928 “family”. This all with a car that has a total production run smaller probably than a single year of…

the tail boom is the real giveaway...

yeah... this was massively disappointing. I was expecting to see chassis flex or something based on the article preview image. this article is bad and the author should feel bad! -_-

Ahhhh... yeah that’s where the confusion came from. I figured he had to be referring to the EF-111 if he was mentioning the Raven. The E-11... is the Global Express ship!

“The arsenal ship, with its large size and the ability for relatively easy upgrades, will likely also work as a Battlefield Airborne Communications Node (BACN).This system, which is presently flown on E-11 Ravens, EQ-4 Global Hawks and NASA WB-58s Canberras, create an “active net” over the battlefield for tactical…

Hehe... yeeeahhh... if you’re on an airliner, and you see a fighter escort? They’re not going to miraculously jump on board and save your ass, buddy :P They’re there for one purpose - signal that it’s time to do what they say or everyone goes boom.

You better believe that if I ever won a major lotto, I’d scoop up an aircraft like this. Wouldn’t even think twice.

So that cockpits look less like this

This. No roof or rollbar? You don’t want a belt.

Off the top of my head, the following things are now code dependent that previously were analog or very largely analog systems:

Yeah... people have gotta understand that aerobatic displays at airshows are a fairly good way to get an idea of the performance envelope of an aircraft by other (enemy) militaries. A lot of Tyler’s analyses of new Russian and Chinese aircraft have been thanks to their first public full aerobatic demos.

Here’s the main thing though... you can’t make a projectile more accurate by changing where you fire the gun. The projectile and media which the projectile travels through is what dictates the ultimate real minimum CEP of any dumb bomb. Unless you have a “dumb” bomb that’s really a semi-guided bomb with active…

... he’s saying “it was an inside job” as in sarcastically. As in he’s making fun of those who think it. Ease up. Louis is a bit of an anti-US troll, but you’re going a little off the deep end in your own response here..

“carries six missiles”.
