@HamptonStevens That's not what an echo chamber is, you sub 90 IQ inbred brainlet. Echo chambers are when you insulate yourself from all discourse contrary to your beliefs in order to protect your own frail cognitive biases. This is basic college sociology 101, but you probably flunked out.
@DrJohnLoMonaco @McCueRC17 @RALee85 Also think about this: if you're designing a low altitude CAS aircraft would you want flares to launch downward towards the ground or into the air with some hangtime so that they would have time to fool IR guided missiles?
@DrJohnLoMonaco @McCueRC17 @RALee85 That footage is too blurry and low quality to see where the flares were coming from on the Frogfoot, as well as if the Frogfoot was rolled over or not.
@DrJohnLoMonaco @McCueRC17 @RALee85 Flares can be set to release at different salvos, including in single shots, and the flare launchers on the Su-25 do indeed launch upwards as they're mounted, facing up, on the engine nacelles.
Please stop posting as if you know what you're talking about.
@ImperialPS5 @JJBAmanga That's still not how bullets or any sort of unassisted projectile works. Bullets don't just magically violate the laws of gravity, with a barrel or otherwise. This is an old myth perpetrated by people who don't understand how firearm sights work.
