Maybe we (British) should keep the tornado till the tarannis is in service. It might not be sexy and modern, but it is a pretty solid, reliable bomb truck from what I can see.
I guess it has to wait for space age warfare.
I know that's what I want in a fighter jet...
Let’s look at some of the hardware developed for THE WAR ON POVERTY.
The M-911 Obamaphone. Useful for ordering pizza.
The F-57 Electronic Benefits Card. You can even use them to tip Strippers.
The DD-69 Obamacare. Get those other people to pay for your fun.
It’s THE NEW ARSENAL OF DEMOCRACY!!!
But every single line in this entire story is pure fabrication, a complete lie. Defense contractors aren't getting "rich" from this current military action by selling airplanes. The USAF hasn't bought a new F-15 in almost 20 years.
RT is nothing more than an organ for the resurgent Russian communists. What garbage.
Sprey as a designer for the F15? Personally, I think that is a flat out lie.
Right now I’m dismissive of all information coming from RT as suspected propaganda that’s being used to support Putin’s war efforts in Ukraine and the Baltic states.
A good lesson from WWII.
Something not well known was that Mussolini’s Italy had some of the best fighter aircraft in the world. Faster, more agile, and more heavily armed than its British or American counterparts.
However, they had one flaw. Maintenance. They needed a lot of it, and frequently, even in good conditions. Sent to North Africa, however, they were one of the best aircraft in theater that only rarely left the ground. So the end result was the much more simple to maintain Allied aircraft were all that mattered.
What any modern military really needs is new A-10s with the old airframe and no significant upgrades. It’s a great plane, and it would take too long and cost too much to make the relatively minor changes that would produce marginal improvements.
