B-1 video
« on: April 04, 2003, 07:02:21 PM »
I have a video that my best friends nephew (a B-1 pilot) sent me. He said he used it to get "riled up". I wonder if someone can post it to a web site for all to see.

I'll e-mail it to ya.

Lest we forget the B-29, Rolls Royce jet engine, Concorde, and Space Shuttle. I'm sure there's more...

Faster maybe. The B1B has a longer range, better terrain following capability, and much smaller radar signature.

Mach 2 isn't nearly fast enough to outrun a Mach 5+ Patriot missile.

Jeez, why do you all complain about Russians copying US designs? The US copied the Soviet MiG-25 by designing F-15 and Russians didint even have to complain and whine like you guys.


The F-15 was designed to counter the MiG-25, but I wouldn't say the F-15 copied the Foxbat.  I guess you say this because of a few similarities in appearance. But, I could then say the MiG-25 incorporated (copied) elements of the A-5/RA-5.

Pssst, and I think you mean "murder capital" and not "capital murder."
