NYC has always had Fireworks for NYE, not sure what you are talking about.

I think the DDG should have responded with a few 5” rounds well off to their side, let them know this is not a game.

they should have responded in Kind...A few 5” rounds off to their side as well. Let them know we are ready to respond.

Im glad they are allowed to dress-up the aircraft again.

they are not using A10s for a reason...there is a real possibility that one gets shot down, and we have to send in assets to save that pilot...or send in more ground troops to save face. Not everything is about $$$.

No one is saying that we dont need drones, we do, they are useful but are limited. The same drones/other systems we use now can ID, and relay targets. Not sure what your point is. There are only so many targets that present themselves. You want to spend even more money building fleets of drones/operators to fly them,…

expensive, non stealthy, sitting duck.

I don’t get A10 fanboys, You can only use the A10 in low intensity conflicts....they are useless against anybody with modern air defenses, until they are taken out. MANPADs are becoming common place and its a matter of time before A10’s get shot down...same goes for Helo’s. Plus, Let the Iraq’s use their helo’s, why…

what drone can carry 85, 500lb bombs?...1 bomber or 50 drones.....i would rather have the bomber. 50 drones, plus hangers, personnel to operate them...pay them...the bomber is less expensive.

Beast Mode X2.

But F16s crash all the time due to engine failure right...

F16 has been working just fine for 35 years with 1 engine

that will cost almost as much as a carrier. More Destroyers is the answer.

trump is an utter moron, anyone who votes for him is electing clinton as your president because she will destroy this buffoon. How can anyone listen to anything that comes out of his mouth, complete nonsense, it should hurt your ears...maybe even cause you to laugh.

whatever you say comrade.

how many missiles can they hold? Looks like they have to shoot them out the Torpedo holes.

thanks, that’s what I was assuming but maybe it was hidden? I think not having a SeaRam is a bad idea, but the navy knows what its doing. They run hundreds if not thousands of simulations and tests.

Where is the SeaRam/CWIS?

badass...you dont know what the hell it is, but it looks ominous...no windows, no doors, no antenna, no signs of life...looks alien....its going to get a lot of “what the %^& is that”!

how will they hide/retract the anchor?
