People that name them in honor of their friends killed in a war.

I lived on so many streets, Wesley Cruise Missile Lane http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source...mp;t=h&z=16 I actually lived on the corner, not on it, but too relevant and cool not to use.

I was forced to make one the other day, I accidentally put myself in Lousiville, KY and can't change it for 60 days. I suck at social networking. Joshua Tkachenko in Louisville, KY.

NF3, no Genies?
Jeremiah Weed replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
What was the issue? -
To add to this, This is a video shown out of context with no ROE explanations etc. Like I mentioned with the tanks, the MILES system makes it easier to kill an M1 than it really is. Why? Because if you are rolling over inferior equipment with impunity, you get no real training value out of the exercise. It is the same with aircraft at things like Red Flag. ROEs and training systems are molded to give pilots the best training they can get. Flying full up blasting everyone BVR as soon as they get airborne might be the way it will go when the balloon goes up, but it doesn't round out the pilots' training at all. Tough training in any situation imaginable, especially disadvantaged situations is what wins wars.

VISMOD (Visually Modified) M551 Sheridans consistently kill M1 tanks At NTC and JRTC, and VISMOD M-60A3 TTS's kill them at CMTC in Germany. (using MILES) I propose we ditch the Abrams for these 'better' tanks while we are ditching the F-22 program for more T-38s.

NF3, no Genies?
Jeremiah Weed replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Conventional weapons? I have yet to d/l NF3 so I can only suggest adding the Genie to the weapons list (if not there) and then adding it to your unit's weapons dump in the campaign file. If that doesn't work don't know what to tell ya. -

That isn't very honorable man. Can you do it and not get caught? More than likely. I know I wouldn't be able to live with myself knowing I was cheating at something though. Those are just my morals though. -
Yak-38 Forger
Jeremiah Weed replied to mono27's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
My post was a joke aimed at morons who would complain about his post in case you didn't understand the American style I was using. И любому идиоту написавшему что-то типа "Як-38 участвовал только в 12 боевых вылетах за 50 дней в 80-х" я заранее отвечаю: НУ И ЧТО? -
Yak-38 Forger

Posting the obligatory "Who cares" before someone posts the obligatory "Yak 38 only flew 12 combat sorties in 50 days of deployment in 1980." :fans: -
Campaign Idea for Early Cold War
Jeremiah Weed replied to TheStig's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Give it a rest dude, we(Wrench and I) are the last people that give a damn about things like that. We were not insulting you, or calling you dumb and stupid, we were just talking about stuff, weird how that works, isn't it? Sensitive much? -

I'm not sure if the models are any different, but that same engine in the M1 series tank (AGT 1500) is in the Blackhawk, in the M1 it is 1500 HP.

Oops.. You know what is funny, I had to think for a minute about what it actually stood for, I mean I knew what it meant, but I have so many acronyms in my head I always used..after a while what they stood for went away.

As someone that has done actual CSAR missions in both the Crashhawk and the s**thook, s**thook is far superior in this role. Of course it is all dependent on METT-T.

The scenario and map don't really bode well for naval operations. -
U.S. F-16s following plane stolen in Thunder Bay, Ontario
Jeremiah Weed replied to ext's topic in Military and General Aviation
Why? There is no reason to shoot down a stolen Cessna 172. Are you going to take out stolen cars with AGM-65s because they refuse to stop? -
Carter cut the B-1A because it wasn't needed. Reagan brought it back as a political weapon to cause more production by the Soviets to ruin their economy, much like the SDI ruse. When Carter cut the B-1A the bomber force was 3rd string in the nuclear triad, SLBM, ICBM, then bombers. The Advanced Technology Bomber (B-2) was far along in development, and we were in the middle of a pretty bad economic situation. Since the B-1 was just a stop gap measure for the B-2 and with ballistic missiles putting the bomber force out of the fight, it was cut. (The B-2 would have been used for the counter force first strike mission of destroying the mobile/rail based ICBMs which were are biggest fear other than SLBMs) The B-1B was then rushed into production and service, and it sucked balls. It had major avionics bugs, and tons of other problems that you would see in an aircraft rushed into production. Then almost immediately it was neutered by one of those START treaties making it unable to carry external weapons. From 1986 to the end of the Cold War it only served on limited nuclear alert and wasn't thought of very highly by Air Force brass. Ironically it was an administration from the same party that made the B-1 worth a damn. Clinton is often criticized for his cuts to the military, but it was his administration that revived this aircraft and about 10 or 11 years after it was rushed into service it was actually a capable aircraft. In an even greater twist of irony, the aircraft it was originally canceled for, the B-2, has turned out to be the one that is no longer needed, and the ability to say "look what we have" outweighs it's actual performance and effectiveness. How does this relate to the F-22? Not really at all. I think if we had about 200 F-22s that is more than enough.

The US will be fine. Tactics, training, strategic capabilities etc. are all factors you seem to be discounting. Those fighters (in small numbers as well) that "will run circles around the F-35" have to get to the merge first. Then they have to get an advantage on pilots that probably have more flight hours in a month than they do in a year. Just something to consider.

Да я не собираюсь больше никого под**ывать по поводу России, США, Великобритании, Нигерии и так далее. Если ваша жизнь настолько пуста что вы принимаете ничего не значащие беззлобные слова сказанные в интернете как какое-то чудовищное оскорбление и неуважение к вашей славе, мне вас искренне жаль. Кстати, никого под**ывать я и не собирался, и если ты (вы) и правда в это веришь, в таком случае видимо в твоих глазах я провоцирую и под**ываю каждого первого, только кроме вас, ребята никого это до сих пор не задевало, потому что люди способны отличить шутку от оскорбления.
