    Yeah, Sauron, Criticism of Israel Goverments = Anti-Semitism

    By that standard how many Israeli citizens are anti-semitic?

    Hmmm… Lybia was a PR stunt. They wern’t forced, they were
    bought. Which was a far more clever thing to do than to
    conquer them and then have a messy open ended conflict
    draining US military resources…
    That the US ruling elite lets itself be blackmailed by Israeli politicians is not new. What is new is that now the DoD civilian
    leadership is itself linked to Likud… Wich in turn get’s the US
    fighting Israel’s wars and end up with messy conflicts with
    no end in sight draining US military resources…

    Yeah but they couldn’t avoid following the mighty shrub into the
    Iraqi quagmire. Realy wise of them brits… :rolleyes:

    It’s all about vision, you know… the sort of vision that get’s you
    3,000 combat casualties and counting… by the way add 3 dead
    today to the vision thing count.

    Can someone explain me if the “dogtooth” on MiG 1.42 canards
    is there to control the formation of such vortices?

    I haven’t seen the AFM supplement, but one can see a similar
    error in the official EF factbook’s diagrams (p. 19), where they put Storm Shadow
    missiles in each wing root pylon, making way for fuel tanks
    in the mid-wing pylons, but simultaneously obstructing the
    main gear movement: :confused:

    It’s abreviation for ring laser gyro.

    Anyway you have a very good point on the IR signature.

    Have to go now, dinner with family. Merry Christmas!

    Matt, it is not the size o the inertial central that matters
    but you would agree that an RLG is much lighter than those
    EM suspention ones used on the SSBNs, that have less drift.

    I don’t know if the russians can currently make laser gyros
    with accuracy closer to their mechanical counterparts. That is my
    doubt.

    I have some reservations about the plasma stealth technology.
    In particular, for strike missions you would most likely not be able
    to use the terrain following radar, which means that if you want to
    do low level penetration you better be carefull to have a much
    updated 3D-map of where you’re going to fly…
    It could also mean that you would have to navigate using the
    bomber’s inertial
    centrals instead of satellite navigation, which would require very accurate gyros and accelerometers, which unfortunately means added weight.

    Aerospacetech, I’ve been searcing for
    a long time for pictures of the Raduga Kh-101
    but the only thing I find is Kh-55 / Kh-555 / Kh-65.
    Do you have one and could it be posted?

    Hi, Srbin

    Is it possible for you tell me what is the source of the first picture
    you posted?

    Doesn’t anybody else want to engage in a little speculative
    discussion about this project?
