    New F-35 Report

    And that's the main flaw with HF/VHF/UHF radars (at least to my limited knowledge) is that it requires a heavily networked system, and if one part of that system fails, then the whole thing collapses. E.G. If you destroy the huge HF/VHF/UHF radar, the shooter radar will have a very hard time...

    Hmm... Seafire LIII, P-38, IAR 80, He-100, and maybe the Fw-187.

    I feel obliged to keep it going. RAF Spitfire pilots trudge through the mud in Burma.

    Keeping the flak at night going, because why not, U.S. Army flak tracers light up the night over Algiers.

    some F35 info

    The F-18 would get really pissed, get hammered, and badmouth its (ex)girlfriend and lose the majority of its money, property, and self-esteem. The F-35 did it out of mercy.

    Ju 88 A-13

    It may just be me, but the B-25 seems like a more natural plane for the role. The A-13 seems cumbersome with all those extra guns. This was the only picture I was able to find, (and it may not even be an A-13)

    Could I expect anything else? It is indeed the VG-90, looks like it's your turn Graeme.

    The What is it? Game
