>>64297572What in the unholy fuck is that thing? Was it like a prototype for a harrier?
>>64297572Have a few million pounds and buy our POS rather than build your own.
>>64297610Europe made aircraft until Lockheed decided to bribe people into not having an aerospace industry. cnuts.
>>64297605mmm, doughnuts
>>64298546Sperrin was the backup to Vulcan Victor Valiant.Back when making things was allowed.
>>64297630Not Lockheed's fault you decided to use a high altitude interceptor as a low altitude CAS plane. Nobody else had this problem. No refunds mister.
>>64297566So what was the big problem with cannon alignment in the Navy Sabres? I keep hearing references to it but no detailed explanation.
CRASHING THIS THREAD WITH NO SURVIVORS
>>64301000Skyray is cute
>>64297566>pre-1980s Cold War jetsSo every American jet including teen series fighters except Hornet?
>>64301717C-17, F-117, F-22, F-35?
>>64301752>F-22, F-35I should've clarify UP TO teen series. Every post teen series is obviously post 1980>F-117F-117 is from the 70s, so "every American jet" includes it.>C-17 I should've said American Fighter jets i guess.
>>64297566>pic It really is a beautiful plane.

How would you like to get nuked today?
I've wondered if this shit https://www.instagram.com/reel/DO8lsiugYHP/ will remain vaporware or if it will actually be viable. If it is profitable you might even see the Chinks dusting off old fighter jets or trying to sell some nigger-rigged mig on the open market to launch satellites for every podunk "nation" on the planet..

>>64300080Weird seeing an F9F in gull grey.
>>64310791almost unreal. looks like a book cover.
>>64305970under recognized
>>64311184I thought it was a drawing until I saw the logo.
>>64312543amazing that these things even fly
>>64312537Viggen is/was capable of some silly things.I need to see one fly again.
>>64312614Given enough power even tubes can fly.BFR.

>>64298947>laughs in maple syrup
>>64315335yeah 80s photograph but we'll let it pass for being a 1970s type
>>64303426i wonder which idea came up first here1) i'm a gazillionaire and i want to fly cool jets2) i actually want to deliver satellites into space
>>64312537this is the Sweden historic flight 'warbird' airshow display airframe isn't it
>>64305970Underrated
>>64300512that's a coincidence, i was having a good look around XV255 today

>>64319449A year after that December 1964 flight the A-12 was physically and technologically obsolete(both the D-21 drone and A-12 were photographic overflight aircraft)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KH-8_Gambit_3
>>64319621The srt-71 is less obsolete than the U-2, yet the latter is still in service.
>>64297610Germans were obsessed with tilt-jet VTOL systems for years and they had a habit of making ridiculous mod prototypes out of their F-104s, given that they had an assload of them courtesy of Lockheed fuckery.
>>64321771With the engines on the wangs what the fuck would you put in the 80% empty fuselage then?
>>64322166The central lift fan and as much fuel as they can pack in to run the damned thing.
>mom catches me browsing /k/>thinks I'm going to turn into a gun nut and shoot up a school>tell here I don't give a fuck about guns and only browse /k/ for discussions of aircraft
>>64319845Both are obsolete and have been for decades. RQ-4 replaced the TR-1/U-2 after the 1990sthe ER-2 and WB-57 in NASA service are the only manned atmosphere research/high altitude sampling aircraft, for mil purposes other technologies have supplanted them entirely (even NASA has a couple RQ-4s)
>>64321647>>64323313yes, more of my pics
>>64302238Should I try Warthunder/World of Planes if I like planes and just want a bit of casual fun with a good variety of aircraft?I only play IL-2 Sturmovik and was thingken of branching out
>>64321780higher res?
>>64323639this website is for people 18 and older
>>64305970The only Blackburn aircraft that was ok and accomplished something other than converting pilots into corpses
when war thunder was on the early pre-F4 phantom era of cold war stuff it was so good
>>64335953nice pic
>>64333439neat
>>64302768Fuck I love the B-58

>>64343960what a beastthe USN's B-52 (same engines)
>>64345408Rolling coal?
>>64345408Times sure were different back then.Even the airframes got a smoke break.
>>64345091>>64345240>>64345408adhering nicely to OP topic
>>64311306https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DiDUIfMk7go
>>64312486Still weird to me to see an aircraft with no markings on it other than a roundel. >They didn't have that many!I know, even if you only have like 8 of them it is still useful to the crew walking down the flightline to know what aircraft is theirs.
>>64335963I wonder if either of those two birds needed to declare and emergency on that flight.
>>64339963Why does the no.4 thunderbird always have a blank tail?
Cheers to the last plane probably standing from the Cold War one day in the future.
