The Osprey isn't actually THAT big. But it's so much fun to ride in.

I love that everyone is freaking out about the tide and saltwater destroying it when they fail to realize that this aircraft spends months at sea and usually exposed to sea spray and salt.

I never actually really thought into classic British cars but my word this is beautiful.

Yes jets are only a factor now as well since we do still use turboprop A/C. The game changer in the coming years will be EA and countermeasures. That's essentially the new stealth. Being able to hide any A/C from radar and AA defenses. Is stealth useless? No not at all. Does it require dumping billions of dollars into

Stealth WAS a game changer... almost 3 decades ago. Now it's just a factor.

I’ve been living with it for 6 years with my truck as my DD lol

I would need a comparison of the two vehicles in question. You know? For science.

I know right!? The Hellcat gets better MPG! I want to love the SS so much for it’s sleeper status but not at that cost.

You're talking too many hypotheticals in regards to A/C that don't even exist yet. But the AH-64 has had numerous troubles operating in austere environments which have upped it's operating costs but lowered it's readiness and the F35 doesn't have reliable flight CPH data yet to compare. I don't understand how anyone

I going to disagree for the sole reason that I want prices to drop in the next year or two so I can pick one up without being shunned everyday by my better half for dropping 40k on a car that gets just as bad MPG as my truck.

From a cost perspective it most certainly does. Why use a now multi billion dollar project F35 against an insurgency when you can use a much cheaper A10 to do the same job. Plus the psychological factor of having a giant cannon barreling down on you from 1000 feet off the deck. During a firefight that's gonna put the

You do realize we haven't ever won a conflict against an insurgency besides maybe Grenada. VietCong? Nope. Taliban? Nope. Al-Queda? Nope.

I find it hard to believe a 3 star knows how to work reddit. Did he provide proof?

I mean a couple has walked into a White House party without an invite before so these things are possible.

Haha yea real strong emphasis on technically but yes you are right. FMF side though, no.

The USMC does not operate any variant of the UH-60. The Navy does.

You could definitely get that SOG key through TSA easily. Under the XRay it'll just look like a key.

“and a chip” I don’t think a potato chip will help. A tuner might though.

Where do you come up with 1000ft? I don't think those buildings are .2 miles apart. I would say they're 500ft max. But this besides the fact of how deeply you're looking into an action movie. If you want to poke holes lets talk about how shaw was shooting 203s indoors and they were exploding when the minimum arming

Gotcha. If we charged the Army they would just never show up haha. Plus I will always favor the Cobra/Venom pairing over Apaches any day. But yes they would, and add a tail hook.
