Maybe it’s that Trump 2 is represented by so many creepy men with more red flags than a Moscow May Day parade, with a smattering of Cray Queen Bish women…
Multiple possibilities, but I would never add a third engine without a good reason.
Maybe GodlyBoi is one of the people in the files that Mad Madam Marge was gonna drop if they fingered her little Eraserhead pal.
I'd just like to remind you that the guys who have protected this man up until his last days in office tried to destroy teachers' lives for putting up a rainbow sticker.
Don't FA with the Insinnerator
The key to this is semantic engineering. Nobody has yet defined 6Gen, any more than there is a coherent definition of Gen 1-3, so whatever horror has come out of Frank's requirements sausage machine can be labelled 6Gen. But LockMart won't like that one bit, because it will make their ATM sound old.
Should it be news that a program started 23 years ago is delivering aircraft on time?
But here we bloody well are.
Not the point of this thread, but “do you think Trump’s win marks the defeat of identity politics” is SUCH a tell.
His win is an absolute VICTORY for identity politics.
If we accept that “angry white evangelical grievance” is an identity.
Which is ABSOLUTELY is. Thru and thru.

Wearing this shirt and bringing a bottle of Mezcal to a party tonight.
Someone has to be, until there's a vaccine against PLA-N submarines.
Journalistic English, where "polarizing" means "stark raving batshit".
But he's something that rhymes with "trite fail" and that makes him much more sensible and smart than Michelle Obama.
The Right wants to overturn the result of the Civil War.
Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia. Don’t like it ? Didn’t vote for KH? Welcome to the Leopards Eating Faces Party, snot for brains.

Two F-35s in the Mach Loop. One is on its way to a movie premiere with a champagne reception and the other is making a Tuesday afternoon dash to Tesco because it's out of oregano.
Women working at Kelvins (later Smiths) licking their paintbrushes to help them paint the numerals neatly on aircraft instruments, using paint loaded with radium.
I missed Martinage's piece at the time. Quite a powerful endorsement.
By the way, note the date on Martinage's piece... Everyone forgot about Musk's 2020 comments because we had Covid.
Autonomy helps. but there is an answer and I spent two years trying to make it happen. Key concept: 120 hours on station gives you most of the same benefits as 90 days.
And why not? Read this, from a leading air power analyst...

All in all, it made a lot of sense and there is no sign that it has ever been studied by anyone American./ends
Survivability combined RCS reduction with advanced jamming and TF/TA - the French govt. built an indoor RCS range that could measure a real fighter aircraft (not many people know that). They also designed a new 750-pound bomb family (Mk82-class with rocket motor) - six weapons on two stations./2
Balanced requirements. Good concept for an aircraft that carries a lot of external load for the edge missions. A configuration that was compact (no wing fold), efficient in flight, high lift for TOL. CATIA was matured for Rafale, so as to cope with carrier loads in the smallest number of parts./1
Very worth a read (the link seems to be paywall-free). I don't think this is a new problem. It's a newly identified problem.
but with ground troops and football players, the idea that brain injury from repeated events can be cumulative, undiagnosable and the cause of seemingly psychological effects is more widely recognized.
And does anyone really need to pull 9g anyway?
