    I see stuff like this and I have to wonder. WTF is going through the mind of a leader of a 3rd world country. That they could know we have stuff like this and say to themselves, "Yea, I think I'll start some **** with the U.S. today. Yea, that's the ticket."

    It's nice to hear when the sight of one of our jets makes people proud. The next time y'all look up and get that warm fuzzy feeling, please take a moment to remember all the busted knuckles and broken hearts it took to put it there.

    I saw one of those on the tarmac at an air show once, all sharp angles, I looked all over it and could not figure out where the exaust exits, course you really could not get very close either.

    If it's the yellow one,it's the Northrope Wing,I think,and it's about 20' wide! I saw the debut after they restored it. Looks like a toy...

    Cool pics!

    On Memorial Day we usually get A-10's flying over my house. I get goosebumps still even after all these years.

  12. You won't find the exhaust. It creates lift and velocity with a Tesla dylithium static dynamic engine and the only waste product is black licorice witch they then use to line the outside of the plane.

    As for alien technology, well that's just silly :D

    I doubt it's the best. Just what is know to the public to be flying.
     
  15. I live real close to Whiteman AFB, these things fly over all the time. Sometimes they are so low you can count the rivets, they have rivets don't they? I'm in the flight path and the Warthogs fly over the shop all the time as they head home. I like it.
