Why do we need a pilot in the plane? Once you lose the pilot that's a ton of weight you can work with

Cylons is the way to go.

Or maybe Skynet.


Cylons looked quite heavy though.


A couple of them looked real nice.[:'(]

Here is a good resource from someone that knows a lot more about it than any of us : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eUDF6ICE0s

That is about a roller coaster? I just watched a little of it and I can't understand why a person would want to give a murderer pleasure while he is killed. Better they fear what is coming and not enjoy it.

hahaha. just watched that as well. [:D][:D][:D]

Somewhere on his channel there is the video where he, an actual F-35 pilot that flew the F-16 for 6 years, talks about the negative attention the F-35 is getting. Corrected the link, thank you

Easy answer: MIC makes a TON of more profit on manned planes which are obsolete than unmanned planes.

61 - I am guessing you have not spent a lot of time with computer programs. They have bugs. We will see manned aircraft for the rest of our lifetimes because a human can react whereas code can only 'follow the code'. And the pilot plus gear is likely only around 300 lbs. I guess if you add in ejection seat and supporting systems it comes closer to 1000 lbs.

Who is MIC?

Would you rather be flown in a plane with no pilot with unknown and possibly known bugs in the guidance system or a plane with a pilot? One of these supposedly safe driverless cars ran down a pedestrian even though the system detected the pedestrian and had more than enough time to stop.

Hagel zum Harry!

I continue not to understand Rusty's rabid obsession with the F-35 being bad (allegedly).

My understanding of it was... it was never going to replace the F-16? Like, they fill entirely different roles.

The F-15 (or F-18) would be another matter, as air superiority craft. But I still think it's fairly obvious that this obsession is off point.


I think that I understand. Anything that the US does is bad, anything that the opponents of the US does is good.


Y'know, I think you might be onto something.

MIC is something-speak for Military Industrial Complex. Get with the cult lingo, man!
