Yea I know, 300G ain't that much that why I was asking to see any improvements in load capacity. I suppose you could carry multiple pods but then again that increase pilot work load and time to fuel.
Lets see, 300G works out to be around just under 4000lbs (4K)....hell that is minimum...
Now why would you say that....US has every right to find out why one of its important strategic ally that provides airbase for its troops transitions to Iraq and Afghanistan (not to mention all supply routes for fuel and water,etc to the war zone) has gone bunkers and now deals with Iran, China...
There might be some truth in what you say but Australia's economy is dirrectly connected to US. I mean the slightest shift in US economy is felt in Australia. I have lived in Australia for several years and American investments in that country is huge. The Australian dollar is connected to the...
This only shows what type of murdering cockroaches are in charge in Baku. It is obvious from his face that he was beaten up, tortured to make a false confession and then they killed this young Cheppard boy for nothing.
If Sultan Aliyev thinks he can provoke Armenians to start a war by...
Like erdogan mentioned most Turks now are against the EU membership. As of a few years ago even the Kemalist Turks started talking against EU insertion mostly because they are beginning to see that there is no way in hell they will get accepted and meet the requirements put down on them. There...
Hey Chogy, do you know the fuel capacity of the newer refueling stores (Pods) by any chance? I am familiar with the TE20400 with basket and a Drogue generator which had a capacity of only 300 Gallons and weighted close to 2300LBS with the refueling hose that stretched out about 50ft.
BTW...
Yap, they claim Turkish roots when they want solidarity with Turkey, they claim to be Caucasian Albanians when they want to claim Armenian lands, and the claim to be Iranians when they want to carve a peace of Iran........we Armenians do not have that identity disorder.
To Shusha:
You sound more juvenile than I thought.
Listen, you dont know who I am and what I have done in my lifetime......It is good that you serve your country with pride but believe me the last thing you would ever want to experience is the horrors of a war.
Since Armenians would never...
Genocide is not mass killing of humans..........that is called massacre. Genocide is state sponsored extermination of there own citizens of certain ethnic group. It is well planned and carried out in certain steps. The actual killing is just one small part/step in the whole process. There are...
I dont know why people still call it a phenomenon. It is the same static electricity that gets generated on fixed wing aircraft when the air flows around the airfoils. This is why airplanes have static dischargers on the trailing edge of the flight controls. However in a helicopter this static...
As far as I know we do, I know I and many other Armenians do.........and thanks for the tip, it seems like I am talking to brainwashed Azeri kids here on this thread.
Armenia is not the aggressive country. First of all you are dealing with the Nagorno Karabagh Republic and not Armenia. Second of all NKR defense forces are dugged in on a defensive position and it is the Azeris who keep violating the ceasefire and border intrusion which has cost them the lives...
Artsakh has always been Armenian........there are no occupiers on that land.
Azerbaijan is a soviet installed state by Stalin to please Ataturk. After the fall of USSR the new Azerbaijan did not even recognize NKAO until later.
Azerbaijan will need more than Israeli weapons and...
Armenia maintains no significant relations with Israel that supports Azerbaijan with weapons and UAVs, however Armenia is not an enemy of Israel and seeks good relations with all countries.
It might be worth to mention that Armenians have been present in Jerusalem for thousands of years as...
The first historical mention of the Turks is in Chinese accounts of a great empire established by a confederation of nomads in the 6th century AD. Stretching from north of the Great Wall in the east to the Black Sea in the west, the empire is known to the Chinese as T'u Küe (Turkey) and to the...
Normally in aviation industry aircraft that reach their airframe service life can get an extension depending on the level of maintenance involved, manufacturers recommendations, and how well the aircraft was initially designed.
If the airframe has life limited parts on specific components...
Azerbaijan cannot be trusted, they collaborate with Israel........Iran is very aware of this.
In regards to Kashmir: Armenia and NKR (Artsakh) support India on this issue and we know the historical realities of the region. Former General Musharraf also compared Kashmir to Nagorno Karabagh...
