you can't just sit back and rule your ground.

one must rule the electromagnetic spectrum also which is the signal corp's job.

no signals = no drones.

the question is, "does India want to join the digital economy?". Modi has answered "yes". does India think there was not a going to be a price to pay? Seriously? when the US was transformed from a largely rural society to urban in the 1920's and 30's the pain was awful. it inspir...

to be fair the f-35 would lose its stealth aspect if it started growling.........

kinda defeats the purpose of the whole package........

TSJones

just to clear up any misconception, the f-18G EW capacity is provided by.........Northrop Grumman. http://www.northropgrumman.com/Capabilities/EA18GGrowler/Pages/default.aspx are we all on the same page? nor can the f-35 in *present* capacity....... suppress...... radar signals cell phone use over a...

TSJones

....and there is nothing to stop an f-35 to put on its own EW pod and start growling for the team.....so to speak. there's nothing magical about an f-18 doing the growling. the growling is supplied by another company, northrup gruman. not boeing. I'm willing to bet the ew process can be further auto...

TSJones

comparing the RCS of a SU-30 to a f-18 to f-35 is like comparing.......

a flying boulder to a basketball to a golf ball.

f-35 will not be stopped.

there are huge amounts metallurgical research not only in jet engines but stealth. I would also add that flight controls on stealth planes are a nightmare w/o automation. the US has had a number of crashes/accidents on developing the flight controls. if you don't do the research then what you have i...

in August 2016, all nukes were removed from Turkey to Romania. they are prolly unlikely to stay there also. prolly be brought back to storage in brussels eventually.

^^^^ Modern Destroyers don't have armour of WW2 era. They rely on air / missile defense and torpedo decoys. If some destroyer has let an enemy ship(capital) come within gun range then it is toast - as modern torpedoes and guns are highly accurate. The warship most likely is going to land multiple h...

the US ambassador to a lot of countries is most highly prized as a PR agent very similar to hollywood style. "luv your act, let's do lunch sweetheart". barf. this assessment does not include the professional corps that to have to serve in hell holes, administer gigantic aid programs and ot...

although the Chinese aircraft carrier battle group is not comparable with its US counterpart in tonnage or number of aircraft, it nevertheless boasts stamina and a bright future. “From the perspective of future development, the US military clearly lacks stamina and the country's insufficient milita...

TSJones

OK, but the plane does fly itself away from the carrier w/o pilot intervention. as does the f-18.

TSJones

since neshant reposted an article already posted by austin, I will state once again........ Further evidence of this was revealed on Wednesday, when Inside Defense exposed the fact that the Navy’s F-35C model has design defects that can cause pilots to suffer disorientation and severe pain when unde...

TSJones

just to make a further point...... much is being made of all US carriers are back in port not on patrol. all of them. an unusual occurance. except.... there are L class gator(s) on patrol.......yes indeed. they are accompanied by severeral aegis class destroyers plus various support ships and at lea...

TSJones

doesn't address the Corp's need for a replacement of the harrier. not even in the slightest. nor for the gator navy effectiveness. pilot confusion and disorientation upon launch for the C model? r u serious? the C model plane flies itself upon launch from the carrier. the pilot doesn't touch the sti...

TSJones

the f-16 has a little less than 6,000 lbs internal fuel storage for its single engine, the f-18 has less than 11,000 lbs for its twin engines. this means that they must add fuel drop tanks for their mission requirements. upon approaching hotly contested air space they must kick off their drop tanks ...

TSJones

It isn't much better than a late generation F-16 and if its much vaunted stealthyness turns out to be hype, the only thing to have come out of this program is a huge bill.

an assertion for which you provided no facts. only opinionated trolling......

TSJones

TUNA? really? good grief......

interesting discussion on why space x rocket exploded last year.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBcoTqhAM_g

space x does their fueling different than everybody else.

TSJones

its amazing that a program has drawn such stout opposition from those not even affected by it.

one wonders what the true motivation is.

TSJones

^^^^
currently there are no nukes in so korea. there are none in japan.

and there are none on any US a/c carrier.

there are none on any US submarine except for the Ohio class.

there are only two ohio class subs on patrol at any given time.

TSJones

BS.

Until trump says he is pulling out if Afghanistan, no such thing is going to happen. end of story.

Even then a usaf general dugan during ods and later gen McChrystal lost big for criticising the potus and his inner ring. the US military serves at the pleasure of the US president. period. we are sworn to uphold the constitution (raise right hand and one step forward) but must obey the commander i...

Thats how the big boys work. Usn dismisses a captain for ship or sub groundings no matter past track record. Skipper of uss enterprise lost his job due to failing a inspection. the USN and the USMC are the harshest in officer discipline. you can get releaved of command quite easily. US Army is way ...

TSJones

there are no such things as lame ducks in russia. if they start thinking or looking different then they are butchered and eaten. right from the git go.

no such concept.

TSJones

it doesn't make any difference. if the f-35 doesn't make the production goals then the US amphibious fleet is basically obsolete unless fully accompanied by a carrier task force. the av8's can't hack it any more for US purposes. it's like saying....what if you are crippled? well, I guess we're just ...

one thing is for sure, nobody's mind is going to change on the f-35 development aspect regardless of transparency and public debate. and you know what's really strange? the Russian critics and their supporters.if the plane is so poor a performer, why worry about it? the governments that have committ...

TSJones

one consequence of the f-35 is that it has to be one of most publicly examined and debated a/c programs in history.

I can think of no other a/c development that has received so much attention especially from potential foreign enemies.

TSJones

why is it that there are constant warnings that if the US does something about the $366 billion dollar china trade deficit that it will destroy us? I'll tell you why......its because the global elitists said so, that's why. but TSJ is off his rocker because everybody knows the problem is automation ...

The JSF thread is a goldmine of information (in no small measure due to one particular poster )
