The amazing thing about Soviet Military Equipment is that it always looks impressive yet it rarely works as advertised! Thank goodness for that.

Coyotes post mentioning the Osprey in the F-35 thread, reminded me of this revolutionary new helicopter in the works
http://www.wearethemighty.com/articl...ll-fly-in-2030 More cool stuff... meet the "Pike" a laser guided missile designed to fire from a slightly modified 203 launcher As a (hard won) designated 203 grenadier... this gives me diamond hard wood just thinking about being able to fire one http://www.dodbuzz.com/2016/10/17/co...ial-operators/ There is a lot of grousing in the F-35 thread about costs and "murdering brown people"... but I for one, cant wait for Trump to open the US wallet back up for our armed forces Anyone willing to look around will see that this nation has been drastically weakened by Obamas defense cuts... if you dont want to hold the edge over everyone else, China and Russia DO, good luck with that when they isolate us from the rest of the world with superior weaponry |

The new F-35b was made for one reason and one reason only, keep Boeing's factories busy. The American taxpayers have to pay yearly rent to our manufacturers so they don't take their ball and go home. Same reason we have to stay involved in wars all the time. You don't really think we are rotating wars constantly to keep our country safe, do you? Last edited by Mr. Laz; 11-25-2016 at 07:59 PM.. |

Laz and Rob sleep safely at night, and eat well by day... thanks to our incredible expenditure of money on cutting edge technology
I have no desire to argue about it with them, sleep well... while rough and well equipped men stand by to keep them fat and happy |

Anything not run by the GOP are basically the same. The military budget under Obama is comparable to the one under Bush.
