  1. I slowly grinding my soul away on WarThunder, trying to get an F4J and F-14. The F-8 is pretty fun.
  2. I hope it is time for this men in tights movies, this super hero bullshit, to die, like Vampire and Zombie movies. We need more movies like Topgun Maverick, where the airplane is the hero, not some degenerate in tights.
  3. Sometimes you just come off as a stupid asshole and no one wants to talk to you.
  4. So when do you leave for the Ukraine? Surely your crusade must lead to you fighting for freedom?
  5. Nah, he's just the brain dead target audience for the pro global war propaganda.
  6. I had a jet one, that I can not find any images of.
  7. When the US Navy went to war in Vietnam, the F-4B did not have a way to detect SAMs either, until the aircrews started buying a commercial radar detector, called the " Fuzz Buster". Lots of Radar guns used the same frequency as the Russian missle sets. To hear its feedback from the FB, they ran single inside the ear speaker, under the rest of their flight gear. It did not give them the direction of the missle, but they at least knew they were coming.
  8. It's really hard to find much info on it, but how did the Army manage to win the Armed Helicopter fight with the Air Force?
  9. Yeah, the Army would have handled fixed wing CAS better than the Air Force for sure.
  10. Yeah, its crazy, we passed laws saying the Army couldn't have armed aircraft... And then people in the service pushed things and got changes. I mean it does make sense, it was the right thing to do from the Army's perspective, because the Air Force had very little interest in CAS. The Fucked up CAS for the Korea war once they got control of all the air assets in country, including the MAWs, in Korea, taking them away from Marine control. It was a shit show. Throw Key West into that, making it so the Army had to depend on the Air Force, while the Marines got to keep all their toys... It was a crazy time. Maybe its just always been crazy...
  11. Yeah it's crazy there was an actual inter-service war over this, with the Marines mixed in because the Army was secretly giving them money for the Bronco program if I recall right. The Army had to hide it was looking into arming helicopters cause the Air Force was going to go apeshit when they found out. Crazy shit.
