The U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC) nearly endorsed a move that could end Lockheed Martin’s F-35 Joint Strike Fighter — and the effort may continue. The committee’s top Republican, John McCain (Ariz.), sponsored the language, offered during the panel’s markup of its...

Not a "Which was the best fighter" but a discussion of the strengths - weaknesses of each. Since the Hellcat had limited post WW II use, I would like to limit discussion to the WW II service of each type. I would be especially interested in any comments about the Fleet Air Arm (British) use...

Was JATO used operationally by Corsairs operating off of carriers in WWII? I just saw a film clip, purportedly from the invasion of Iwo Jima, of a Corsair taking off from a carrier deck with JATO assistance. I have never seen or heard of Corsairs using JATO before, and am wondering if JATO...

Any of you F-8 guys have experience with the J's radar? I have a source which states (and has a photo of what is stated to be the APQ-124 control head indicating the same) that the APQ-124 had a Pulse-doppler mode as well as Pulse, similar to the APG-59 of the F-4J. Was this mode...

The MH-60Ss involved are from HC-11. There are SH-60Fs and HH-60Hs from HS-2 on the Kennedy, and SH-60Bs from HSL-47 also operating from the Kennedy (presumably they would normally be based on the escorts). Not exactly true - when I read the "Forward... from the sea..." vision, I felt the Navy...
