You know what's funny? F35's fat body. There is no way to you shoot a movie starring F35 that can make the plane look sexy from 90% of the angle. It's just so fat. The only movie F35 can star in is National Lampoon's Misadventures. stephenthinkpad has issued a correction as of 02:50 on Sep 19, 2023 |

yellowcar posted:the x-32, boeing's competing design, looked even fatter absolutely lost because the Air Force brass were by this time used to nothing but unopposed domination of the skies, and didn’t want to pick an ugly plane. essentially so tired of winning they were spending their days rearranging the set dressing. did this thing actually fly well? in a universe like ours where this won, would they still be losing planes left and right for no reason?

It had a simpler but weaker VTOL system, but it probably didn’t it would have been more awkward in the sky than it’s competition. Boeing hadn’t designed a fighter in decades so there would have been some kinks to work out. Boeing at one point was making street cars as well. They weren’t great.

Boeing hadn’t designed a fighter in decades so there would have been some kinks to work out. quote:Professor Seymour Melman partially blamed the use of a longtime defense contractor. Boeing Vertol's customary client (US Department of Defense) was relatively budget insensitive, more tolerant of cost overruns, and had sufficient funding and workforce to conduct complex maintenance, all contrary to the needs and abilities of a municipal transit agency.[44] The design team primarily had experience in aerospace design, not rail vehicles,[45] did not make a serious effort to gain that experience, and did not design for ease of maintenance. In some cases, portions of the SLRV had to be disassembled by acetylene torch to access components.[44]
