I think a good idea can be to sacrifice 15 knots of speed and rebuild the hull on steel ....

Very fascinating and heroic issue, more in a submarine without a mechanical engina!!!

Perhaps the B-52 should outlive also the B-2 ...

Yes, as entry 10659, apparently a lot of time ago (entry 420 of 804), but I understand you missed it, it's not a very appealing unit ...

The graphics are clearly not representative, if they were true, the range in page 5 (Balearic Islands, Corsica and Sardinia) would be only a small 275 nm

Very extense digest of reports about the doubts of the F-35 air-to-air capabilities: http://www.defenseindustrydaily.com/The-F-...troversy-05089/

Don't worry about Gibraltar and Spain, the risk of civilian losses in the very near towns and the own Gibraltar is too high to any military attempt to solve the issue.

I remember my first PC was purchased in 1991 (late, as a one or two years after the PC were equipped with Hard Disk), a IBM PS2 with 486 processor and with a 40 Mb HD !!!!

The Argentinian president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner is a very stupid, unstable and dangerous woman, and remember the next presidential polls are on 23 October 2011. And her late husband was a close friend of the Montoneros terrorists .....

They are a lot of "tanker" loadouts in fighter and attack planes with buddy stores in the HCE DBs (the buddy stores are unoperative, the buddy plane refuels other planes because the "tanker" loadout, not because the presence of a buddy store in the loadout, same with all the heavy tanker configurations with flying boom, UPAZ pod or other unoperative but correctly named refuelling gear). And yes, I think it can be some missing buddy tanker loadouts, but they are a very heavy limitation in the HCE DBs, limiting the number of loadouts (and other entries) to 2055.

Wellcome ScooterJock. First day and two full of interest posts. I'm sure we can expect more interesting viewpoints of you

A particular and amusing interpretation of the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis events. Don't miss the ASW operations, with mutant use of active sonar and tractive MAD to get-off the water a fictitious SSBN with counterotating propellers and X-shape tail planes. Also, first operational use of the VTOL variant of the A-12 Oxcart.

We are looking at the Spratly Islands and near border troubles for years, but just that's the World is not needing in 2011, a new hotspot

I think we can't assimilate and perceive the lot of political changes and new events of this year 2011 .... Well, good idea, we need this new thread ...

I don't remember any Naval series in Spain, but yes two versions of the same irrelevant picture "Botón de Ancla" (about the adventures and friendship of midshipmen in the Naval School of Marin, Pontevedra): http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bot%C3%B3n_de_ancla_(1948) (Somebody has translated this wiki entry to Bahasa Indonesia ) http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bot%C3%B3n_de_ancla_(1961) (semi-Musical Movie ) And the spin-off "Los Caballeros del Botón de Ancla": http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_caballero...C3%B3n_de_ancla Caballeros=Knights Botón de Ancla=Anchor Button http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escuela_Naval...ar_de_Oficiales

I'm working in a perhaps bigger alien scenario, I don't want to download your scenario before finish my scenario, for not "contaminate" my idea (but my scenario is also centered on a CVBG), but thanks

Yes, 69 years ago ... And for me Midway is a "modern" battle !!!

Now I also remember a very interesting documentary in Discovery Channel re-enacting the Roswell incident with nowadays eyewitness. In the documentary is clear the total failure of personal eyewitness in doing a good, coherent or representative narrative of the facts (I'm working from time on time in penal courts and that failure of the eyewitness, myself included, is ever clear for me). In the documentary "eyewitness" with helmets with recording cameras are walking near a reserved area with something "perhaps" similar to a crashed UFO incident. After the incident, the narrative of the "eyewitness" about the "incident" ( they were said about participating in a wilderness observation documentary, not in an UFO incident) was hilarious. In the incident was present one and only one security guard/undetermined uniform serviceman keeping the perimeter of the "crashed UFO", and keeping any hand weapon on his holster (not UFO remains visible, it was only ambiance, one solitary guard and a small protected perimeter). For the eyewitness, they were many guards not one solitary guard , in menacing posture (that was not the recorded by the helmet cameras) , the guards were weaving weapons on their hands pointing towards the eyewitness , and for only one of the eyewitness the "many" guards were equipped with facial masks

I like the UFO's explanation of Ian Watson Alien Embassy/Miracle Visitors, but I don't remember it now ...

I have not see it, but the series Warship is mentionated elsewhere: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warship_(TV_series)

I like very much the F-22, but I can't stop on thinking about the Stegosaurus and his two supposed brains ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stegosaurus#.22Second_brain.22

Some details about the strike on Libyan warships: http://www.meretmarine.com/article.cfm?id=116335 - The 7xCombattante IIg previously operative PTMs are all destroyed (another two, Sharara and Laheeb, don't blown-out because were previously disarmed). - The Koni III mod-class FFL Al Girdabiyah/Al Ghardabia was the Koni-class in flames in the Tripoli port. - The Koni III mod-class FFL Al Hani is on the rebel side (probably anchored in Benghazi), defected at the start of the unrest/civil war. - The Nanuchka II-class PTM Tariq Ibn Ziyad is on the rebel side (probably anchored in Benghazi), defected at the start of the unrest/civil war. - The other two Nanuchka II-class PTMs were unoperative at the unrest start. - The 4xOsa-II-class PTMs were unoperative at the unrest start.
