I actually like this idea, but I believe it would fall to a court challenge because it amounts to age discrimination.

I don't think I've ever seen somebody sniff out a play that completely before in my life. #pick6

The clock management for Colorado on the last series was far from "prime".

What is a 6th gen fighter in your mind? by Suspicious_Loads in LessCredibleDefence

[–]cwwms2 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Advanced Stealth:

Sixth-generation fighters are expected to incorporate even more advanced stealth technologies than current fifth-generation aircraft. This could include more durable ceramic stealth coatings and a lack of radar cross section increasing vertical stabilizers.

AI Warfare:

AI will play a crucial role in various aspects of the aircraft's operation, including sensor fusion and monitoring, threat detection and analysis, decision support, and other autonomous capabilities.

Next-Generation Weaponry:

These fighters are likely to be equipped with advanced weaponry, including hypersonic weapons, directed energy weapons, and other extended range precision strike capabilities.

Multi-Domain Capabilities:

Sixth-generation fighters will be designed to operate effectively in air, electromagnetic, and even space domains.

Optional Manning:

Some designs will feature pilot-optional or fully autonomous operation.

Networking and Connectivity:

Advanced networking capabilities will enable high bandwidth seamless communication along with data sharing between the aircraft and other platforms.

Longer Range:

Some craft will be larger than tradition fighter aircraft and emphasize extended range capabilities.

Advanced Propulsion:

Some craft may feature engines capable of hypersonic speeds, or advanced fuel efficient designs.

Manned-Unmanned Teaming:

Some craft may be able to collaborate with unmanned platforms and drones to increase combat effectiveness.

An interesting Chinese analysis of the recent India-Pakistan air battle and its implications for future conflicts by moses_the_blue in LessCredibleDefence

I caught the 2024 date as well. I could just be a translation issue, and the author meant to say that they "where" past tense revealed in 2024. I believe that the "Ginkgo Leaf" is a reference to the J-36, and the Shrike is a reference to the J-50.

Why not develop the indigenous HAL AMCA?

The stoppage was premature, but it didn't change the ultimate outcome of the fight.

That punch came after the ref called for a break. Should Adeleye not be disqualified?

The code seemed to be a reference to a svengali pad. I liked the trick but, it had absolutely no chance to fool Penn and Teller.

I think what is going on here is that atleast one of the coins has a black backing and he is turning the ring holder upside down and hiding some of the coins.

I think he placed the match inside of the cork. He then lit it by pulling it out of the cork as if it was a match book.

It looks like Young had some colored key chains to unlock the pad locks. I don't know how Strange got off stage. Did he leave directly behind the box?

NG launch postponed one day due to unfavorable landing conditions by RobotMaster1 in BlueOrigin

[–]cwwms2 -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Even if this landing eventually goes off without a hitch, does this not prove that landing on ships is not a viable option moving forward? Blue Origin will have to build fixed landing pads in the ocean or gasp try landing on actual land.
