So... you're a virgin, amiright?
It's... inelegant.
I do not like amber taillights,
There's an old saying: If it looks right, it will fly right.
Point by point, since you seem to insist -
That is possibly the greatest analogy I've ever heard used with regards to the A-10.
I don't think you read either my post or the original post very well.
It's true that the F-14 was a hangar queen, but to say that ten operational Super Hornets are better than six operational Tomcats... I'm not sure I'd necessarily agree with that. It ultimately comes down to what the mission profile is. If you want a bomb truck to lay as much explosive power in one relatively lightly…
The Avro Arrow was a very, very cool aircraft, along with the BAC TSR-2 (look that one up if you've never heard of it), but I don't see how it was in any way whatsoever linked to the F-15 program, let alone being a progenitor of it. The Avro was a much earlier, much less advanced, and much less capable aircraft.
Tyler, I love you for this.
I do not like the new Batmobile. At all. It's just far too heavily themed, a big problem I've always had with the Batmobile. To me, Batman was a generally pragmatic guy (for a DC superhero, at least) who looked around him and used what was available readily to him. As the Batmobile evolved, it just got far too…
Who hasn't banged Lois Lane?
Why, in the name of God, is Ferrari incapable of putting out something this beautiful anymore.
"But you people write some shitty-ass emails."
The armament of the Kirovs is indeed frightening, but it does come with its own curious drawbacks. It is immensely, immensely difficult to effectively coordinate that many separate and over-lapping systems on a single platform. The Kirovs are simply capable of putting more firepower into the air than they are capable…
How do I get me one of those Jalopnik Accountability Team things?
The argument can certainly be made, but I consider it to be as legitimate as its successors. It was initially intended to go into space, and it very nearly did after the loss of Challenger.
Perhaps, but that doesn't change the fact that Palmdale, CA was where final design, construction, and testing of the shuttles occurred. Up until the mod-90s, all missions also landed at Dryden, and the shuttles were stored and maintained there, being moved to Kennedy only when they were launching. In fact, there…
Dear Paul Thompson,
What did you call BS?
