Godholio posted:This actually makes it better. Peak TFR  Zero Length Launch System. An idea cooked up in the pre-guided missile era where they would protect targets by strapping rockets to a regular fighter, launching it like a SAM off of a mobile truck and having it intercept aggressors. You can see the skid guard under the F-100 and the giant rocket booster. Not pictured: Pilot's massive goddam balls

Duzzy Funlop posted:It's not like the idea died in that era. We used to have those devilboosters on our Starfighters well into the eighties. Something about the ruskies murdering our airfields and maintaining ready-fives, I forget. But not only the zero-length-launch system required balls. Stepping into an aircraft with a downward-launching ejection seat (before we adapted a different system) is a feat of courage unto itself. There's a British comedy album about the attempted US sale of the F-104 to the RAF that is absolutely hysterical. http://therisingstorm.net/robert-calvert-captain-lockheed-and-the-starfighters/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1AbEFosgtE Whole thing is on youtube Booblord Zagats fucked around with this message at 17:50 on Feb 19, 2013 |

Georgia Peach posted:I am the great-great-great-grandson of a private who got shot in the face, took 6 months off because he lost half of his jaw and came back to keep fighting. gently caress a general. My family owns an assload of tobacco land in Georgia, so we just sent slaves to be trained as soldiers and didn't do poo poo. Sherman didn't burn em down, and just hired our slaves as share croppers after the war and made more money that way since they didn't have to feed them or house them anymore, while still taking 80% of the poo poo they grew.

front wing flexing posted:FBMS and then known as FBIS was created in 1941 and exists to this day as OSC. It's operated by the CIA. OSINT as intelligence discipline is pretty old. The data mining of social media is mostly handled by NSA (allegedly not targeted at US nationals for intel oversight reasons, yeah right) and the FBI is pretty deep into monitoring social media too, for obvious reasons. He's talking about it as a beyond face value analysis. I met some of the Jellyfish dudes at a conference for PIs and they actually have come up with some amazingly cool metrics for observation across a large spectrum that puts previous methods to absolute shame. OSINT is a pretty old intel method, but the modern usage of it is just a solid 50/50 of SIGINT and HUMINT

I'm left handed/right eye dominant and have no problems shooting rifles right handed. In fact shooting rifles left handed just feels awkward. Same story, hand/eye reversed.

Israel does all kind of hosed poo poo and I wholly disagree with how they treat Palestine, that said, it's kinda nice to back a winner for once. Every body else we help in the region sucks poo poo at everything they do, but Israel is loving competent beyond measure. Too bad they keep selling our tech to China, though

The craziest part is that the rebels somehow built an air force for themselves for a bit in the late 90s. No one knew where or how they got the planes and weapons for awhile

Veins McGee posted:The RLI were pretty terrible at all aspects of counter-insurgency except the killing 'bad guys' part. Everything I've read about it pretty much points to "If it was a competent raid against a valuable target, it was the South Africans. If it was a body count in the middle of nowhere, it was the Rhodies"
