Voting Mirage + Invisiboat because that one stands a chance of winning over an actively bad choice (sorry, Cour!)

Its cool buddy. :respek:

How about this, instead of voting for something that 'might win', you help us and vote for something we're passionate about?

I'll trade you a vote down the line? Maybe HereticMIND is willing to make that deal too?

Hey I am more passionate about not crippling our finances with boondoggle missiles/bombs than I am about Tomcats.

And I really like Tomcats.

...Maybe. As long as we get these Tomcats at the earliest opportunity (preferably now).

Because DESTINY DEMANDS IT.

If you change the vote just make another post. Please don't go back and edit your original. That way I can start tallying early and not have to run through the list again. I haven't started tallying yet, so no need to revise anything.

Not likely, have you seen Maoist Women? :stonk:

That being said, HG sure buys into that philosophy, especially Team War Crime, going around with the 'Power extends from the barrel of a gun'.

Gripens and Invisibote. It might not necessarily be the optimum choice (despite Bac's excellent post), but by drat Gripens are the Hired Goons schtick. We started with em, we'll go down in flames with em.

Now where would you get the crazy idea that I'm some sort of communist?

Anyway no can do, I just got my business cards that say "Bote Lobbyist" on them. That's not the kind of commitment that you just walk away from.

Gripens & Invisibote indeed. If we get the invisibote, then Grey Hunter gets to be the head of fleet intelligence. I do not see how this could go wrong.

A reminder that Grey Hunter went from winning the battle of Midway using surface combatants to losing a gunfight with the entire continent of Australia.

He is the perfect admiral for Hayard Gunnes.

How does into botes?
Mirages and intel Bote.

If the MURICA option had an equal number of 117s I would be far more conflicted.

I should also mention that the bote looks like it can launch Helos, so we could send Cobbie out on Tactical Insertions.

Even without the SDBs, the gripens can carry 4x paveway or 2x cluster bombs + 2x mavericks, and the IRIS-T apparently doesn't get a huge tax on it.

And with the Gripens we actually have some good planes.

IRIS-T has a gimpy range though (15nm), and good planes still die to below-average AAMs if you have to close to within the no-escape zone.

Basically if we don't get AMRAAMs on our Gripens, they're probably going to die to them.
