The only reason Russia is even buying them is as tech demonstrators for airshows to do Cobras and poo poo and sell exports.

The Flanker is an impressive plane in almost any situation. It's not their fault they've only been used to kill MiG-29s.

This is going to sound dumb as hell, but for whatever reason old B&W photos never feel real to me. Like, it's old, this happened in history. But when they're colored it's like woah. These are real people and places.

Nah man, doesn't sound dumb at all. I feel you 100%.

What's kind of interesting to me, is that I find women from that time to be more attractive than today. Probably because I grew up in a small town in the middle of nowhere so whatever..

It's strange seeing things in color for that time. When movies like Saving Private Ryan, and shows like Band Of Brothers sort of came out with the sharp, digital representations of that era it was really mind blowing to me. When I think WWII era, I think in black and white. So seeing it in color is kind of a mindfuck.

FREE CARO


AB posted:

I really wish Caro would get some help.

I agree with both of these sentiments. As someone with mental health issues who got better, I want very badly to figure out a way to get that guy some help.. but statistically, it'll never happen and he's far more likely to shoot up a kindergarten class than he is to take anti-psychotics and work a 9-5 job.

It's painful to read about guys like Caro, it really is. And odds are, he is probably an extremely intelligent guy. But mental illness is such a loving nightmare that.. well.. he goes to Libya and Syria and fears that we're all CIA drones.

They can fire Stingers. I don't know what block, but that particular exemplar thought the incoming missile was more interesting than the Foxbat it had locked on. Woops.

You have a source for that? How would that even work? I have never heard of a predator with AIM-9's.. but then again, my whole pred experience was in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Any idea which model AIM-9 it is? Does the guy in the trailer at nellis get a tone lock? I mean, space and time being what they are, and latency being what it is, and AIM-9 ranges being what they are.. I can't see stinger missile engagement ever working-- but I've been proven wrong a million times before so :shrug:

This poo poo would have been 100% legit looking 15 years ago. Front page drudge material, AOL newsstory, maybe even a OldManMurray or Seanbaby article!

Syrian rebels shot down one of the regime's Su-22s yesterday with a MANPADS, and most of the action was caught on video.

Judging by how many times the dude fires that launcher, I think it's safe to say that the rebels have achieved 80s music video-level weaponized editing technology.

I can't be the only one that notice that the missile didn't corkscrew...

Right? poo poo's too blurry to me to ID the specific system, but uh.. Unless all this weed I'm high on is making me stupid it looked like it proximity fused, and it did not corkscrew. Though I'm admittedly high and watching on a phone screen. That's the epitome of not a good thing.

Godholio posted:

Where are you even seeing a smoke trail from the missile? I see 18 launches, then camera work that shows nothing, then it cuts to a jet with an engine fire.

From my cellphone, which is not the best, it looked like like a 16/18 type launch (the -16/18 look different than a -7 launching, fairly different motors and ejection profiles) and it looked like a smooth smoke trail.. On my poo poo screen though, like I said. I thought the first hint of engine fire was a prox det, so that much I can see now was just an engine fire.

Prox det + no spiral + what I thought looked like good optics on the launcher (Again, lovely cell phone screen) made me think -24, for a bit. Which would be a pretty :stare: sorta thing. When I get on a computer I'll take a better look.
