  1. Unmanned A-10's

    I was having this discussion with a friend of mine who's a Hawg driver (maybe I'll steer him over here some day). Here's my response: For what it's worth, here's an outsider's view (ie mine): The A-10 was built with one goal, provide excellent CAS, and with two principles in mind; fit gun into the plane, and bring the pilot home. Having said that, I don't see a need to protect a computer with that much armor, who's weight could be traded for fuel capacity - maybe. Though by the time they redesigned it, they could of bought a new design and fielded it.
  2. Oops...

    NK has some $$$ to throw around, thought most of the population is poor. As usual, the Government has some dough and can feed it's self, just look at their leader, he's a porker!
  3. Bring It Iran

    'Big' country, making shizzle up over oil....hmm, sounds familiar.... how about: SAND STORM RISING
  4. Bring It Iran

    OK, we won't send one CVBG there, just four!!! During ODS we had four groups in the Gulf, why not do it again?! (Despite the fact that we don't really have the carriers to do it...).

  7. A guy I know from school helped out with this. Normally when I see FLIR footage there's either 30mm rounds or GBU's that are raining down on the target.
  8. Here's an 'ironic' solution:
  9. Pilot's Items of Interest

    I think there might be away for us to archive this...
  10. Haven't they heard of bridles!?

  12. Harry Morgan Dead at 96

    Sad to hear that he rode into the sunset on Sophie.
  13. Thanks for posting. This is a great resource since us-cockpits.com is no longer around.
  14. Pretty much. While growing up I read mostly history and non-fiction (much to the dismay of my teachers). Almost everyday in 5th grade I had 'The Great Book of Modern Warplanes' in my backpack, which weighed more than all of my other books combined...and I walked to school.
  15. Gepard, he did write it (with Larry Bond) after playing Harpoon.
  16. I haven't read RSR (yet!), but I do have 'The Third World War: August 1985' that might be have some stuff we can add too.
  17. 366th FW is now 16 a/c strong at Baghdad Int'l Some pics of the deployment:
  18. I think they only had 2 total.. Something might be lost in interpretation since the F-8's entire wing is clearly defined.
