    Is that a serious question?

    Preferably, i ask because there reliable and good. You have a diecast plane with all of the real marking based on the aircraft you like or want. There not plastic models, they are some good models made out of metal and plastic. Which is very good to have in your aviation collection of Airliners, Military Aircraft, Civil Aircraft, Warbirds Aircrafts, and many to choose from in the diecast category.

    Take a look at this site called…. “The Flying Mule” and you’ll find lots of diecast based on aviation.

    I know a lot about the F-22 and F-35, ta.

    Really… is that all?…

    Ok 1st paragraph.

    2nd paragraph yea that’s all… What ya expect? Some. Logical info? 🙂

    The F-22 and F-35 (obviously still in development) and many others haven’t been to war, so what’s your point?… And in what way is the J-20 a “fantasy aircraft”, exactly?

    Why don’t you learn from it?

    F-22 has been phased out of production. Learn about the F-22’s production/entries. Produced from 1996-2011

    Number built: 195 (eight test and 187 operational) Raptors

    F-35 is in development, but it’s not so hot with Lockmart. Too many criticisms and propaganda stuff. Which is why Lockmart’s focusing more on the JSF than the F-22.

    J-20 is a fantasy plane mostly beacuse of it’s looks, if you haven’t played aircraft games from China/Japan you’ll see some planes that look like this which is why the J-20 looks so gameish/fantasy ish:

    F-18Growler, please read what Scorpion82 wrote to you in post #148.

    Fox-3 is for Active Homing Radar guided missiles. The MDBA Meteor having this type of guidance system, the call would be Fox-3. This has nothing to do with range, it could be 1 mile or 500 miles that it would not matter. It doesn’t have anything to do with believing either. This is a FACT.

    I read it Frank no need to reply. Everything is fine.

    Well we can blame it on the person, not the terrorist, we can never tell if a persons a terrorist or they are. This incident was very sad and London lost a fallen soldier which is terrible. I wonder we’re he is now…. Death is seriously weird in that Standards. Wonder how does it look alike in After death. Hope the guy can spend his life in a Death Penalty or just lock the guy up who killed the soldier for life until he dies.

    It will be Fox 3 as well. A Sky Flash or Aspide were Fox 1 as well. It is about the guidance in use. IRIS-T or ASRAAM are also Fox 2. It’s merely a NATO wide used code for firing missiles with the respective guidance.

    Yes you’re definitely right about that. That’s NATO’s special code to a missile.

    Fox 1 = SAHR
    Fox 2 = IR
    Fox 3 = AHR

    It’s not related to a specific missile variant. The AIM-54 Phoenix was an active radar guided missile and actually the first of its kind. But Fox 3 is likewise used for the AMRAAM.

    Regarding to this, Since the AIM-54 was retired, they’d call Fox-3 to the AMRAAM, guess they used Fox-3 for the Airforce and used Fox-3 for the AIM-54 from the Navy. Then today they’d call Fox-3 to the AMRAAM for both U.S. Navy and the USAF.

    But wonder what they’ll call the “Fox” code for MBDA Meteor.
