Hey, the airbag worked as designed...that’s a big bang...Maybe we could put signs on the side of the tank...No Parking Allowed and paint the the treads yellow!

I’ll say it again...The Osprey is going thru the same transformations that the Huey did...Sorta slow at first, gaining acceptance...then doing the job so well and quickly gaining respect! Now comes the lets see what else can load on it and make it do phase! The V-22 is going be a very strong workhorse of a platform,…

OK...That’s impressive. till you remember the May day parade and fiasco of stuck vehicles and the one that caught fire...That’s why you see 3 fire huge extinguishers on the front and who knows how many more you can’t see...Always remember...These Russian things were built and are maintained with the cheapest vodka…

This is a huge step in development...Learn from a real operational standpoint and then we can know more of what really works and doesn’t and adjust from there. Someone mentioned the comment that we haven’t lost any pilots to this aircraft...That says a whole bunch more than the negatives.

Tyler, you really know how to do this! I really like the way you show things. It shows folks the real back bone of wars...Logistics...Most people all wanna see things go really fast and blow things up! If you think of beans, bullets, boots and gas...This is how wars are won and battles lost. The toughest job in the…

It’s very interesting to note, thru out the years of all these parades...how much of what should be their best kept stuff breaks down...Wonder what would happen in a real war...I guess that’s maybe what the Ukraine thing is all about?

Anytime I see a Blackbird photo...All I can do is imagine how it was created....Slide rules and lined paper for notes, new materials and technologies...everything about is from inside to outside is amazing...and guess what...It probably came in under budget...I know it came in under time! Today, we can’t build one…

OK...Think about this...

Subs do so much more than any other for it’s size and crew compliment!

That’s pretty impressive...he could up his game just a little bit, if they actually hit their target...they get a driver to go along with the Bentley!

Ya know...if anyone wanted to be a martyr...that was the time and place!

Kinda interesting...

Wait, if you buy it now, we will give you one free...Just pay the extra shipping and handling!

I think it could be the diesel generator cooling water?

That isnt any different than they have tried and it's not working...subs today even low tech can hear and aoid almost any surface contact, way before the contact knows anyboby is there...We had been locked in a box of Hawaii that was 4 by 4 mile grid and had almost a whole carrier group, and P-3's looking for us. We…

This can help...but the only way to track a sub...is with another sub. This thing maybe able tell us where they aren't, but I seriously doubt where they are. Any sub skipper, worth the title will be able to avoid it easily...

Another great read from the inside! It like many articles raises more questions than it answers...

This following in the great tradition of its amazing cousin, the Crusader...Long may they be remembered...Great birds, doing amazing things...way past when they were supposed to! In Churchill's famous words...So much is owed by so many, to so few!

Its kinda like Russian thinking,...its simple, ruggeged, needs cleaning up, but it conveys a message...These go from point A to point B and convey people...

Way interesting trip down memory lane...I bet the pilots thru the years have great stories! I think the process to become a Marine One pilot, is tougher than becoming a Blue Angel!
