America's military crown jewel, the F-22A Raptor, will now be given to Israel. *link*

You see don't see the differences between US F-16's and the Israeli F-16's posted earlier?

 

[Danielle(:]

flightline crew ?

 

[clipy_clop]

fucking cool

 

[Rebirth _2007]

yes

 

[sahranghae_s2]

oh sure, remove all support for the nation you want the other nations to model themselves after

 

[Rose T]

Don't you have a roadside bomb to plant or a market crowded with infidels to drop a backpack bomb in?

Puerto Rico is the unofficial 51st state dipshit. Then you have Canada, U.K, U.S. Virgin Islands, etc. At best, Israell is around 55 or so on the list.

A friend worked on programing the radars for their current radars. They can only track an 1/8th of what ours can.

 

[writerinthealley]

You have no room to be talking about truth.

 

[Zimba3471]

Yep.. The Phantoms are still in service

 

[Kira-Kun]

[No message]

 

[Diwa]

what?

we sold israel de-fanged F-16's, the F-14's we sold iran the same.

they get a great airframe, and its engines. Its AGAINST THE LAW for us to sell the avionics and radar packages as they are treated as government secrets.

thats a FACT.

why the stupid face?

 

[DINO returns]

Wow talk about security risks as well as FOD risks.

 

[xPoint of No Returnx]

That's where the pilots store their Jew gold.

 

[1234567]

Yeah, F-22 gets special LO paint. On top of a bunch of other LO coatings. I think theres actually a half inch of coatings and crap on the edges

 

[x1xmuffinmanx1x]

Why would they be sold at a discount to Isreal (or anyone)? If anything, I'd think that they would be sold for more to help recoup more of the R & D costs. It's only fair that the US get them for a better price since they are the biggest clients

 

[Morganie]

Yes because the IAF is facing such incredible combat...

 

[Rhymereverytimer]

Who said I wanted the Middle East to democratize? If anything, we should be moving towards a more absolutist form of government.

 

[Maeve]

loose lips sink ships

 

[gareth robinson]

He was about to get lit the fuck up, but we ended up just taking the film out of his camera

That's what we were talking about, the 'lumps' on the side are removable conformal tanks, which can be put on earlier models but aren't common.
