@SciGuySpace 1) It’s been DONE. 2) No new technology…same big tank, same SRBs, same Apollo-looking capsule. 3) EVERY space writer has ONLY talked about costs and risks…nothing on “what will be gained” by this mission. So, what will be gained? What will we learn/discover/achieve?
@DJSnM Sounds like the difference between Boeing and Airbus. Boeing aircrew fly the aircraft with computer backup/assist. Airbus crews monitor the computer that flies the aircraft.
@DJSnM Hope they don’t lose a wingtip engine as the resulting yaw moment will be insane. Which is why fighters have their engines near centerline (0 Butt line) as possible
@GrimReapers_ Hello Cap! I know you’ve done simulated Iranian attacks on USN assets, but could the USN/GCC navies successfully escort a convoy of 20+ oil tankers without losing any to swarm or pinpoint attacks from the IRGC? Even sink enough in the straights to close the Gulf?
@Aviation_Intel Considering that Patriots were originally designed as anti-aircraft weapons…yeah, they’re very good at shooting down airplanes, from any nation. Question is: who screwed up? ADA battery or USAF?
