archive.is/GFiJh twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/812061677160202240 Trump tells the dirty yids in charge of our (((greatest defense assets))) to fuck themselves roundly, shopping outside of the previous contract with Lockheed Martin. Competition is the last thing either of these companies want, and now Trump is forcing it upon them.

Plus this is where the savings are going to come from to fix roads and bridges etc.

The manufacturers state that it's essentially a patrol unit for already held airspace. It's like filler aircraft on the home front. Not saying either boeing or lockheed deserve their shekels, but it doesn't seem to truly fill the role.

The scorpion can enter production now and the first ones can be rolling off the production line 12 to 15 months.
And its under 20 million a unit. 20 god dam million.
If the God Emperor even hints at considering them you can bet your ass the kikes will panic and slash their prices to half.
For the wars the USA is fighting it would be ideal.

God, fighter planes are a joke. Here's what we really need: 1) A fighter that's as good as the F-16/15 line, but cheap enough to have them everywhere we're operating, which is everywhere except Pyongyang, last I checked. 2) A-10s for CAS, the more the better. 3) Development of drones that can outperform existing planes, stay airborne for days, and that is also cheap enough to flood the sky with them as needed. 4) Light, medium-range/medium-capacity transports like the Osprey that can deliver squads of SF operators twice as fast as a helicopter. 5) A final solution to the Jewish question that leaves everybody feeling better.
Done and done.
Kevin Mitchell

I think there's a place for the Scorpion, it can do some duties for cheap. The problem would be getting the Air Force to accept it, they've already rejected it in the past for some specific roles.

Free speech is cancer because it allows kikes, like Bess Kalb for example, to have a platform to spread their kikery and poison society.

Not what I meant. What I meant is that the F-35 would actually be good for multi role but is way too fucking expensive for no good reason right now. The F-22 for air superiority, and the A-10 for CAS. An SU-35 can easily out maneuver an F-35, but not so much an F-22.

multirole™ is a shitty meme frced by the chair force because they want to be modern day cavalry. we dont need super-mega-hyper-advanced jets with ion-mega-radio-electro-cannons to blow up brown people in the desert. what we need is CAS, and thanks to the chair force mandating that the army cant have any combat aircraft, this necessity is put on the back burner because the chair force wants to be cool. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_West_Agreement answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081226133302AA3W6cV

Logan Ortiz
I don't think the Air Force even needs a multi-role with their plethora of good platforms (just update the attack platform which is always less expensive than a fighter), and v/stol is stupid in my opinion, but a multi-role is perfect for the Navy's operations. It allows for operational maneuvering that wasn't available during the days of the F-14 and A-6.
Multi-role is supposed to be a a work horse. Not great but sufficient. The F(E)/A-18E/F/G is a perfect example of what it's supposed to be. The question is whether you want to build a completely new platform (F-35) or design another upgrade to the Hornet platform… well, I guess we could call this hypothetical platform a Hyper Hornet which would be pretty cool.
Kayden Young
but it ends up being a jack of all trades and a master of none. yo end up with a jet thats too fast for CAS and too slow for dogfighting.

It would probably be cheaper and better than anything to put the F22 back into production. It's already developed, already one of the best planes in the world, all they need to do is start it back up. Unit cost would drop like a rock.
Isaac Harris

Levi Thompson
This was pointed out to me in another thread where I suggested the same thing, but apparently the maintenance and flight costs of the F22 are insanely high long term. I think Trump's plan to get a swarm of Super Hornets with maybe another hundred or two hundreed F22's would be best.

You simple bastards. The F-35 is clearing the skies in testing - I mean wholesale slaughter. The super hornet has no stealth, no sensor sharing, and how the hell are the Marines going to land one on an LHD? Or do you want them to keep using ancient Harriers? You don’t have to go ‘heads down’ to drop ordinance in the F-35, and you could lob missiles over your shoulder, or use ordinance from other platforms while doing so. The Fat Kid in the Magic Coat is next level shit - It evolves Air Warfare, old dogfighting techniques will be a death sentance. Full stop.
You pay for war with money or blood, and you want to send our folks in with broke dick, bargain store crapola. Fuck you.
Here’s what’s happening, in case you want to take a break from licking windows: Trump just met with the Air Force and the NAVY. Navy doesn’t give a shit what goes on the carriers as long as they have enough to fill all their carrier decks. They’d settle for a Cessna with a bucket of grenades. If they can’t fill the carrier deck, there’s no reason for the carrier and they lose funding. Can’t have that! That’s why they are delaying declaring the F-35 operational - The transition would leave them with open carriers for a while. They’d rather fuck up the entire program for the military and our allies, than lose a couple carrier decks.
Now who the God Emperor DIDN’T talk to is the Marines. With F-35s on an LHD, instead of ancient Harriers, they can project nearly as much power as a carrier group at a fraction of the footprint and budget. The Navy knows this and is scared and salty as fuck, as the Marines are posing an existential threat to their prime mission area. They’d be relegated to destroyer-based missile bitches.
What is most likely is that Mad Dog, Certified Marine Badass, is going to fist the Navy, and Lockheed and the God Emporer are going to cut F-35 costs by schlonging the union labor and cut a lot of the nonsense requirements to streamline building the plane. Common interests, easy solution, good deal.
Chase Kelly

Gabriel Stewart
The F-35 is already obsolete. Go sail around in a boat full of gold bars if you want to be billion-dollar target practice for foreign drones.
Anthony Brooks
Lockheed-Martin pls go
Jacob Perez
Fuck off Lockheed, a swarm of Super Hornets is more cost effective. It's not like the technology developed for the F35 just magically disappears. How about you cut the cost of F22's down so we actually have a high performance fighter plane, rather than a poor performing computer-genius EW-killer that's gonna malfunction all the time.
David Peterson
The reality is the opposite, F35 is dropping to f16's, mig's, eurofighters etc. basically anything because it's a fatty
it's stealth has basically already been subverted, and HMD aiming systems aren't unique to it
there's even an advanced super hornet which is stealthy too if you absolutely need it
the real operational stealth is found on the F22 and F23 which have 360 degree coverage and not just the nosecone
Connor Williams
That was two years ago, with pilots who had never flown an F35 in mock combat flew it like the F-16 they were used to. It doesn't work like that. Now that the pilots are flying the F35 like an F35, it's just brutal.
Subverted by what, magic and wishes? Go ahead and name the other close air support platforms with HMDs.
LMFAO. Magic paint doesn't change the shape of an aircraft, imbecile.

Subverted by slav electronic warfare measures. While burgers were jacking their dick off dry to muh stelh :DDD the ruskies were perfecting counter-measures. As a result, stealth basically means dick as everything carries a radar capable of detecting stealth craft, and as a bonus they've developed means of disabling electronic systems remotely, through sheer force of directed pulses at sensitive equipment if necessary.
Angel Richardson
I imagine circumcision might have that effect.
Adam Cooper
n-no ;-:
Benjamin Sanders
Are you talking long wave radar? If so, you may want to read up on that garbage - It has some serious physics problems.
1. You need a long antenna. Guess what those don't fit in - Planes and missiles. I know of one foreign prototype that has one in the wings. It's useless.
2. Resolution is craptastic. At best, you'll get a vague idea that something is in a general direction, no altitude reference. It's 100% useless for targeting.
Basically, you are stuck with a large, land based radar site that is spreading it's cheeks, begging for a missile to be inserted.
Now the EW stuff the Russians tested out in the Crimea, you're right - That stuff caught the rest of the world flat-footed. If they didn't mind playing with that stuff in the open, imagine what they are saving for a real war…
However, now that peace between US & Russia looks like a real possibility, heck even becoming allies - I'm not that worried. I think we'll both be terrifying the shit out of China, and keeping them contained after we start dismantling their economic shenanigans.
Parker Taylor
Chinks can't wage wars for shit. They once fought Taiwan and lost badly despite huge advantage in equipment and manpower. Plus they really despise warriors as a nation. It's pretty much their national idea that a soldier is worse than a faggot.
Oliver Jackson
I don't know much about the chinese military, except for the fact that they can't even take the island nation of Taiwan back. A simple blockade, and they'll get rest as they run out of everything (That's why the bongs have always had an A++ Navy).
I never knew they felt that way about their military, although looking at our estimates for their funding, I believe you. Any idea why that is? Are they just banking on waging economic warfare - Because Trump is going to make them cry on that front.
However, China could just rep up raping Africa's natural resources, I'm not sure what (((they))) will be trying to get us to do about that.
Christopher Hughes
I think it's historical or some shit. It's been that way for ages, China was never good at waging wars. If you read up on them, chinks are basically roid raging kikes. Gooks are kikes too, but they at least have towering dignity to compensate, whereas chinks are simply trash nation.

The IRST (infra-red search and track) in an SU-35 can acquire a target 90km out from behind and 30km from the front.
Between IRST and networked radar, stealth is an expensive waste of time. Boeing could work with Saab on bringing Gripen production to the U.S. Fucker has a $5k cost per flight hour, cheaper by 12 times than the F-22 and at least 8 times cheaper than the fucking 35 will. That, the A-10, and some F-15SE's and we'll be grand for a while.
We will need a replacement for the A-10 soon, and it better have a fucking GAU, since these fucking DoD cocksuckers seem intent to blow up 200 dollar Afghan goat brothels with million dollar ordnance.
Isaac Stewart
Rotary cannon meme needs to die. Twin/quad cannons work just as well but without wasting ammo.
Cameron Ward
Are you differently abled, son?
Bentley Roberts
IRST is good stuff vs. stealth - Most modern air vehicles sport them - The Typhoon has a particularly good one as well, and the F35 has a 360deg version, however the actual usable range for ID and targeting is a little over half the 'something is somewhere out there range'. Altitude and weather have a very large effect on the sensor, so it isn't a silver bullet - The HUGE plus is it is passive.
Networked radar requires a lot of platforms to be really effective. Not a whole lot of countries are set up industrially or economically to produce the latest fighters sporting them in meaningful numbers. When they do, you're right, it's gonna problem.
I really like your take on the A-10 replacement - You have a great point about affordability. We're basically building planes whose nearest competition would be space aliens - Our current conflict is blowing up Toyota 4x4s with $500,000 missiles. Maybe there is room for something like the Scorpion or the Gripen for clearing out ISIS trash mobs cost effectively.
Currently, we're pretty locked in to Grumman, Lockheed, or Boeing if you want a new weapons system. Trump poking them in the eyeball to spur competition and cut costs is, unsurprisingly, a great move for the country.

China was always best at defending itself against other Chinese. For fucks sake there are like 2 "great walls of China" because Chinese people used to like invading themselves so much. That last invasion is what really makes them Chinese anyway. My guess is that after a couple thousand years of invasions you start to think of soldiers as faggots.

What is the point of the f-35 anyway. Stealth is fucking retarded because if there is an air war with say Russia, all they have to do to win is
GG no re, a plane with a sufficiently large radar will still see your stealth shit a long way away and a formation can just spam missiles at you because you can't dodge every missile.
Jaxson Bell
It is? Do you have any sources for that
Not that I agree with him, but you're a fucking idiot.
Evan Rodriguez
Not only that, but the F35 is fucking HUGE with a shit turn rate. It can't do a goddamn thing in air to air against an SU-35.
The Gripen cleans its fucking clock and at a cost per flight hour a tenth the rate. It has a better maximum instantaneous turn rate than the F-22. That turn rate is crucial for dogfighting and dodging a missile. It also has the smallest IR signature. An American-made variant with our electronics mojo could make for a damn fine fighter that we could afford to keep in the air in sufficient numbers.
The SU-35 annihilates the F-16 and F-18 in simulations, and kills more F-35's than vice versa.
No, period, and the mods are killing Holla Forums for the last while with the way they ban everyone. We should just be allowed to laugh at you and blow you the fuck out of the water with redpills, but mods cockblock us from devastating you by banning you before we're finished gangraping you to death with our superior bwcs.

The great thing about this is that there are other large government acquisitions looming or potentially looming that Trump and his approach could have a tremendous influence on.

Obama actively worked to destroy the US. He doesn't want us to succeed, so why would he want to lower prices for anything?

Literally everything in the US military's inventory, whether it be tank, plane, gun or ship needs replaced cause everything is that old. They can't afford to be taken for a ride in acquisition like they have been with the F-35 or else they will not get anything done.
