Bush Flew Fighter Jets During Vietnam by
WalterM140
To put it in perspective, here are 9 ways Bush got favored treatment in the
service due to his political connections (he
was then son of a Congressman and grandson of a former Senator):
1) He got into the Guard by pulling strings, avoiding the year and a half
waiting...

asymetric warfare by
phil hunt
What would be sensible strategies/weapons for a middle-ranking
country to employ if it thought it is likely to be involved in a war
against the USA or other Western countries, say in the next 10
years?
I think one strategy would be to use large numbers of low cost
cruise missiles (LCCM). The...

Brooks to discount.
(CBS) Retired General Anthony Zinni is one of the most respected and outspoken
military leaders of the past two decades.
From 1997 to 2000, he was commander-in-chief of the United States...

Best dogfight gun? by
Bjørnar Bolsøy
It takes time to wind up and has a small projectile, so how does
the M61 really stack up against, say, the BK27 og Giat 30mm as
far as dogfighting is concerned? Even with the PGU28?
Is shot density the primary factor to look at?
Regards...

Also why not market the C-17 to the air freight community?
This has been mooted, either as is or in a civil variant, at various
times. For some of the issues involved you might wish to read "C-17

Could the Press Grow a Spine? by
WalterM140
Well I watched "Hardball" last night with Campbell Brown.
She had Bartlett, one of the Bushies on. She asked him a question. He talked
for a while and she said something like, "you are very articulate, but that
avoids the question completely." I wish more of the Press would point out that

Here's a 1946 look at the German wartime secrets- just a "fraction" of

The State of the Union: Lies about a Dishonest War by
RobbelothE
Ted Kennedy. What a hoot! This guy talks a good game but that's about it.
He's a documented adulterer, major league alcoholic, and not much of a driver
(one of his dates never got home alive).
It appears his moral outrage is selective. He now opposes the use of force to
remove a dictator (and his...

EU as joke (modified) by
Cub Driver
The more or less final (some would say "cooked") figures are in, and
Europe's performance is not entirely as shabby as I earlier posted.
Japan says it will provide $5 billion, including $3.5 billion in loans
(as if Iraq needed any more of those, after what Germany, France, and
Russia extended to...

Wouldnt a cannon on a police helicopter solve a lot of

Is it possible to put a round right through the engine block

Seems like that kind of accuracy is possible now isnt it?

Defence plan to scrap F-111s by
David Bromage
The RAAF's 35 F-111 warplanes - Australia's front-line strategic strike
force - could be retired from service from 2006, a decade earlier than
originally planned, if the Government accepts a controversial option put
forward by the Defence Department. A key issue is whether early
retirement for the...

What sort of problems faced a defender in attempting to intercept and

I am interested both over Germany and Britain.
