What they are talking about, a Embraer EMB-314 Super Tucano

What I am talk'n about...

Piper PA-48 Enforcer (pictured above). The PA-48 is an updated version of the World War II-era North American P-51 Mustang, which the USAF evaluated in the early 1970s for a possible COIN role. One potential issue is the PA-48 would not meet the USAF's requirement for a two-seat fighter.

Talk about a slick ride to cruse the Texas Mexican border, forget the drones.

Awesome looking little bird, badass and ugly like the a-10.

Thanks for posting the photos of the Super Tucano and P-48.
The P-48 came immediately to mind when I started reading the thread.
And I get some grief from relatives when I try to explain that Brazil
makes some pretty dang good machines...especially when I tell the
gun fanciers that I might buy Taurus if I ever get a revolver/pistol.
