Pearl Harbor? Say on dec 6, Pearl was given intel that an attack would
come anytime in the next 72 hours.
What could have been done differently to affect the...

Concerning Arsenal Aircraft by
robert arndt
It might help to note that Arsenal aircraft are almost always
forgotten when WW2 aircraft are mentioned. It is little known that the
VG 30 attained 500 mph in a dive between 13,125 and 6,260 ft in July
1939*- before the Corsair hit 400 mph in Oct 1940. Arsenal then tried
to produce the VG 33...

ID question: hornet or super-hornet? by
Jim Battista
Seeing a couple fly over one at a time this weekend leads me to ask:
Is there any easy way to tell a plain-old Hornet from a Super-hornet if
it's alone in the sky? I know the E/F's are bigger, but, that ain't
much help without the other one next to it.
Is this one where you just have to really...

ISRAELI LINK IN US TORTURE TECHNIQUES by

Is replacing Maverick with JCM a good idea? by
Scott Ferrin
The Maverick's warhead is between five and 12 times the size of JCM's
and it's range is higher. That and Raytheon is talking about
extending it to nearly 40 miles with LOAL. Seems like they'd want to
keep it around.
