    Will Iran enter to the war against Israel?

    So does this make YOU sleep at night: "Iran can do a good job of challenging Israeli/US AirPower within its own borders" ? We do not take the Iranian military for granted. Same as we did not take the Iraqi military for granted. When I received orders to deploy to Desert Storm, yes, I was...

    Will Iran enter to the war against Israel?

    True. :enjoy: False. :lol: Do you remember the news about how an F-22 flew under a pair of Iranian F-4s who were harassing a US MQ-1, the F-22 scoped out the F-4s' wing loads, and politely told the Iranians to F-off? Just about all media reportage focused on the fighters, but those who have...

    Will Iran enter to the war against Israel?

    Wrong. :rofl: If I am the target and a missile is coming to me, the missile's flight path is definitely predictable -- TOWARDS ME. Even if the missile maneuvers during flight, we know its final destination -- me. Every time a missile maneuver, its guidance system creates what is called an...

    And the US denied China the rest of Asia. http://www.amazon.com/From-Third-World-First-Singapore/dp/0060197765 Chapter 28 America: The Anticommunist Anchorman Although American intervention failed in Vietnam, it brought time for the rest of Southeast Asia. In 1965, when the U.S. military...

    Will Iran enter to the war against Israel?

    For starter, YOU know nothing. To me, you sound like a teenager who is smart enough to use sophisticated sounding words, but not understanding the concepts within. All missiles ends their flights with a straight line, to use simple words like yours. Keywords search: proportional navigation. PN...

    Will Iran enter to the war against Israel?

    Sometimes I think there is a contest between the PDF Chinese and PDF Iranians to see who can most defy the true laws of physics. Anyway, am off to sleep. The bourbon is taking its toll. I will teach our friend the errors of his ways. :enjoy:

    Gaza-Israel Conflict | October 2023

    Whaddaya mean 'have'? That implied recent. No, it has been known since 1948 that the Arabs never cared for the Palestinians except as pawns. Now with the Abraham Accord, that apathy is sealed.

    Gaza-Israel Conflict | October 2023

    Looky here...You guys will NEVER believe anything from anyone, independent or biased. No one is foolish enough to believe this line of argument. You guys already made up your minds. The soldiers got to X location and secured the place. From that moment on, X is under complete control of the...

    Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

    Maybe that is the problem -- reliance on US. Perhaps a while ago, reliance on US made sense. But not today. The EU was not even a dream back then, but it is reality today, and that means it MUST, not should, be Europeans who defends their lands.

    Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

    When I got orders to the F-16, the squadrons at MC were slowly moving to the digital models. When I arrived on base, our flying schedule have came down to once a week as we exchanged our jets to the Guards then wait for the newer models to come in. Once a week flying is the absolute bare minimum...

    Understand? These guys are not here to 'understand' but to troll out mindless insults. He learned one slur from somewhere else and stays on it like a dog on a bone. That is all he is capable of. If the VKS did even %50 of what the US did in Desert Storm, we would NOT get to the point of giving...

    Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

    Am going to go out on a limb here even though we do not have enough info... We can be assured that the Ukrainians are/were fast tracked thru the training pipeline. Physiologically speaking, flying once every other day is the best to allow the body to R/R. But I heard the Navy guys have been...

    Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

    When I transitioned from the F-111 to the F-16, I was admittedly surprised at the difference between the stick and rudder movements. But there are plenty of pilots who went from computer assisted hydro-mechanical flight control system like the F-15 to a complete fly-by-wire F-16 and solo-ed in a...

    Breaking: B-21 Bomber takes flight

    The issue is US. Not anyone else. If we do it, then it is an 'obsession', but if anyone else does it, then it is normal.

    Breaking: B-21 Bomber takes flight

    It is 'childish' only to YOU but not to anyone who at least studied the technical issues, if not actually was involved in the projects. In designing a low radar observable platform, there are three rules: 1. Control of quantity of radiators 2. Control of array of radiators 3. Control of modes...

    Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

    Here is the deal... Missiles and artillery operates on the same idea. The thing goes up and come down on a parabola. Nothing more. Whereas with an airplane, you can take your time. You can wait to drop your ordnance, or change your target(s), or even not drop at all because of some other...
