ok, let's do some critical thinking...... there are 9....count 'em 9........gator navy carriers that the f-35b is destined to serve on. another is being added next year. they presently use the av8 harriers which are primitive compared to the f-35b. it's just.....a world of difference. that's 10 gato...

the boeing vstol entry lost not because it was ugly but because it couldn't do some of the things as well as the LM vstol. this was documented in a vid that is available somewhere on you tube.

otherwise, Marines love ugly. Marines think ugly is more loyal.

meaning a system with separately operable digital streams that cannot be breached, it will be foolhardy to cooperate and collaborate on advanced military technology programmes and underway projects.

With Pakistan slipping out of US grasp we need to see where the US will go next. Ceding strategic space to both India and to China will be a huge contraction of US influence you seem to forget that the US basically dumped Pakistan after the Russians were driven out of Afghanistan. it will happen ag...

18000 lb internal fuel storage is just huge......I used to top off A-4Ms with 10000 lbs and that was with internal and two drop tanks! i don't think the forum posters realize what that means. seriously.

that means that the f-35 can stay sub sonic down in the weeds forever, where the Marines love it.

If China does such an act in Intl waters near US submarine bases or coast CNN/Fox would be calling murder of US democracy by evil communist China

we will just wait until China pulls a slick one on India and then we will all have a good chuckle, eh?

TSJones

well, in theory, there is no wrong with your explaination.(so, CHina would return the drone). I just hope that your explaination of "freedom of international water" would not be a "one-way street", when CHinese underwater drone maps along USA/India's coast. as you know, double-s...

Comey didn't tell Billary to rely on minorities and women to get elected or to ignore working class white males in rust belt states.

I don't know if we are talking about the same thing or not but the US has 20 roll/roll off ships to transport army logistics. the ships are about 1000 foot long and 100 feet wide with multiple decks.

coal industry employment has been crashing for years.

not much underground mining is going on. its too labor intensive.

its gone mostly to strip mining where entire mountains are leveled by a crew of less than 10.

in the future we will need coal and oil to make stuff, not to burn it for energy.

TSJones

in the US, natural gas is kicking coal's butt. shale oil production is bringing more natural gas on line each day. the US is exporting natural gas to Mexico who is a major oil producer, I fully expect for technology to create even more natural gas from various resources, however it should be noted t...
