Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

Their detatchment of Curtiss Fliers is lying in the western desert somewhere. Too expensive to operate, these new fangled aeroplanes are rather useless so their told.

This sure looks like AMRAAM or Patriot food to me...560 kts?  Every air to air missile in the arsenal will catch that thing.  I wish the Iranians all the luck in the world....The University of Oklahoma needs overflow parking for it's football games and if they fire ONE of those POS in anger, OU will be able to use what used to be Iran.

Looks like an unmanned version of the Baka Bomb, at least you can tell its influence in the "Ambassador of Death".
