I was in the USMC for EIGHT years MR SMarty Pantsthese multi-million $$ aircraft are worthless--sure
Do you know anything about the Mitliary? I mean, other than what you get from Rambo movies? Equipment is expensive, and the parts are expensive. Without the pods they are talking about, the pilot won’t get any warning that there are bad things headed his way. Things like enemy missiles. Those are bad, and if you get hit with one, it sort of knocks down your multi million dollar aircraft. So there are sensors that are used to warn the pilot that something evil this way comes. Sort of like the radar detector that is in a lot of cars.
Now, without these sensors, or with improperly working sensors, the pilot is left to looking around and hoping to spot the threat in time. Now, this worked fine in World War II, and worked fairly well in Korea. But by Vietnam, we learned the equipment worked a lot better. It could let you know that a Missile was about to be fired, giving you that much more time to react to and avoid the attack.
If you don’t see the missile approaching, and there are a lot of areas you can’t see while flying along, then the first warning you have that you are under attack will be when your plane explodes into a big multi million dollar fireball.
Now, if you were a pilot, or knew anything about military aircraft, and you flew on one of those planes. You would have one hand constantly on the ejection handle, because the very first sign of any danger, and you need to punch out, or you will die.
Any questions?
this is just more bullshit MSM crap
Really? I find that hard to believe. Because the military I served in would have discharged you dishonorably for your racist attitude. Of course, perhaps the Marines have lower standards than I believed, or perhaps you were smart enough, hard as that might be to believe, to keep your stupid mouth shut.
So what is MSM bullshit? The way the threat receivers work? The need for them in a modern combat aircraft? Where is the lie? What is the truth then jackass?
Here is a very simplified explanation of how the systems work. I picked the simplest explanation for you, I figured the complex would be far over your head. Of course, I figure the simple is over your head too.
Now, would you fly into combat with an aircraft which has no threat receivers? You might think yourself brave enough to do it once. Because chances are once is about all you would do it. You wouldn’t live long enough to repeat the performance.
Now this is fictional. It is from Flight of the Intruder.
You see the little scope with the lines on it. That is the threat receiver. And while it is factionalized for the movie, it is pretty much how the system works. You see how the pilots knew that bad things were coming their way? If they didn’t have the system, they would have died in a glorious multi million dollar fireball.
This story is just one of a long list of problems with the German Military. Their aircraft availability is one of those issues that is not new.
ANALYSIS: German military wrestles with aircraft availability
Less than a third of German military assets are operational says report
Everything that you disagree with is not MSM propaganda. Of course, from my experience with you, everything you post is propaganda.
yep, you must've been in the new, sissy military --
