A-10C Discussion

Why do nearly all these cockpits look like the plane laid for 10 years at the ground of the ocean?

 

They should all be refurbished from scratch... sad to see them in this poor condition, especially the F-86

 

Someone has to pay for that work in order for it too be done. Many museums do not have that kind of budget.

I love how like half of the guages in the F-117 have been removed or plated over.

I'm pretty sure that aircraft is a pre-production machine... the cockpit does not look like the F-117 pit I saw at Holloman about 10 years ago.

Truly superior pilots are those that use their superior judgment to avoid those situations where they might have to use their superior skills.

a bit too accurate with the missile description no?

Especially when talking about what seems like 3rd hand reports.

Well despite what news says we have some pipe hitters on the ground. I imagine my brothers shot the knuckleheads with those devices in the head and reported said devices up the chain.

Unsure it is nowhere close the Manpad concentration of a russian motorized division. Even tho - I wish them safe return from mission.

 

Something that cast doubt about the report.

 

The usual rebels Order of Battle for a Rebel air defense platoon is :

 

-The guy who fire the thing

- 3 dude with cell phone camera

- The guy who yell "allah akbhar" or other depending on where the rebellion is happening.

 

Every single manpad launch can be found hours later online. Even those syrian tanks have more gopro attached to it, than they got working NVG or Thermals :D

 

Without video, I won't put too much credit into it. It is POSSIBLE it happened, but considering the above (and given the fact that in Gaza, they dont give a shit in they self defense...)... well....

Comments section on that article is painful to read.

 

Quite true... I had to stop when I read about the Kevlar armored cockpit tub... on the second comment I was reading.:doh:

Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
