@bscholl @DJSnM @boomsupersonic Second, more cursed idea: a two-stage design that ejects the draggy lifting surfaces. The full aircraft climbs to altitude, ejects the draggy bits, and the remaining control and propulsion module dives to hit Mach 1. All landing on parachute.

@bscholl @DJSnM @boomsupersonic Would a plane with an air augmented rocket count?

killing oomf because he put a 1/2” AN fitting into the 1/4” AN bucket

@mcrs987 Who did you get the call from

It’s so over for torx

[RapidUnplannedAssembly @RapidUnplanned]

Welcome back, Soviet Tu-22M doctrine

[James Raab 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @JamesRaxz]

Been saying for years that the best offset to our shipbuilding woes is build more B-21 than there are birds in the air and load them up with LRASM.

It won’t solve all our problems and we still need ships for sea control but if you want to bonk ships it’ll do the trick in spades.

@BestCoastBrian @83dollaroring It sounds like you're just feeding engines to test engineers.

And then the CFO started crying

@yourmanjimbo @TheIshikawaRin There's mods to backport even more content, including the 4K 3D Prapor

reading on Pyrios lead me to find that MSFC disassembled an F-1 engine that was on display at the Smithsonian to fire its gas generator for learnin'

you hate software engineers, yes. but do you have the strength to hate mechanical engineers?

@83dollaroring How

[RapidUnplannedAssembly @RapidUnplanned]

@Volke__ They aren't using these for armored breakthroughs anymore

@KenKirtland17 Obviously need a large number of racks per starship sortie to make sense, unless they ride along as secondary payload

[RapidUnplannedAssembly @RapidUnplanned]

@KenKirtland17 Even cooler if those maintenance tugs operate with an occasional starship to provide upmass and downmass, i.e. ferrying racks in and out of orbit for maintenance
