😉 Latest pics of Goshy will be of help.
You gotta give credit where it is due.
Those guys flew 200 Km in night without visual cues without or minimal bombing experience, avoided detection, landed bombs in general target area, and made it back safely. They had a single engined civilian aircraft with no mil-spec sights for dropping payload.
And we are dishing them for bein unable to destroy protected/hidden hi value assets?
😀 😀 😀
CNN really hyped up the situation big-time. They made it sound like our nation was defenseless, the F-22 was useless. They made it sound like a major national security threat and F-22 was useless. CNN was using negative hype to dramatize the situation to try to keep viewers attention. So they have all this negative misleading hype for about a half an hour before the interview. They finally have an interview with the military, and the military dispels their hype real quick. As usual there was no apology from CNN for misleading the public.
CNN would be the best media outlet if they did not have such a far lean to the left, if they did not hype things, if they would be more technically and factually correct. If they would stop stating their opinions as facts.
CNN should stop manipulating the news politically, and just stick to the facts. They are supposed to report the news, not manufacture it.
Every aircraft in history has had glitches when it first entered service and some throughout its life span, the F-22 is no exception. Having a few glitches is typical of one off an aircraft’s first deployments, there is nothing surprising about it.
Despite the fact it is typical to have technical problems, particularly early in a program, it is not surprising for the media and people with a political agenda to try to capitalize on it.
CNN at its best..:D 😀
Folks i have some question regarding the cockpit, if someone can tell me,
1> What are the purpose of the two small MFD’s?
2> why didnt they opt for complete 3 MFD solution without using 2 extra small MFD’s (like the one in new LCH model they displayed).
3> what is the small thing hanging on the right side of the cockpit , on the side of the caopy hinge?
4> How much reengineering will it take to replace the bracketed HUD with a bracketless one as a bracketless one is still under developement in CSIO.
5> Where are such displays like the solid state health recorder and stuffs? or they are all integrated? :confused:
Looks to me a video / still camera

Sengupta is our Dale Brown…soon you will see Su30mki powered by plasma engines and Mach15 hypersonic brahmos prowling off the US west coast
surrender while there is still time :diablo:
😀 😀 😀
Thanks snake76 , I am also quite baffled that they are opting for Uran , According to the Indo-Russia Brahmos deal , Both Navies would be inducting Brahmos in their respective fleet , So there is a good chance they may opt for Brahmos in VLS or Angled launcher, Well they even have Klub systems
Cheaper when compared with Bramhos.
