LOL, was it fun pumping aviation fuel into those jets. You are correct, someone had to do it? Did they let you pull out the wheel chocks too?Yes, we get it. You're still flapping the shreds of your ego, pretending you accomplished something in the face of people who actually did.You sound like Rambo in charge of million dollar equipment12 aircraft. 18 aircrew. Half a billion dollars' worth of weapons systems.LOL you saved millions of dollars of fighter aircraft, of the US Air Force, the US Navy, and Britain's Royal Air Force.I left the Air Force better than when I found it. I did my part.Actually we would all be better off if you were a Huntington Ingalls or General Dynamics propulsion engineer or you could apply to Boeing to help design the new autonomous drone submarine.That would indeed be workable.No shit, genius. Did you read the article? Did you comprehend it? They're trying to mechanically combine the output power from two diesel engines and two gas turbine engines through one complicated gearbox system. The gearbox is failing, and they don't understand why yet.That makes zero sense, as all electric propulsion systems have mechanical partsSeems like an electric propulsion system would have been far simpler, combining the power from turbines and diesels electrically instead of mechanically.
Imagine an electrical power plant with steam turbines and a large diesel generator. Are all the output shafts ganged together mechanically, or are the alternators from each unit ganged together electrically?
Hint: They're tied together electrically. Matter of fact, every generator online at any given moment feeding power to the national electrical grid are all tied together electrically...NOT mechanically.
My statement makes perfect sense. An electric drive system would be far simpler.
I agree that it would be far easier to combing the engines by hooking them all to generators and then using them all to power an electric drive system.
But even better would be to give each engine its own water jet propultion system.
That would eliminate the size and weight of all the generators, and give much better redundancy in case of wartime damage.
Now esalla is going to say you want the Navy to be powered by jacuzzis.
Schizzo talent like yours however is not really in great demand
CIAO
You didn't. Your petulant foot-stamping about buying stocks is silly. If you hadn't, someone else would have. You're not special.
Me? I innovated processes and data products. I made the jobs I held easier for the next guy, and more valuable to the unit. I saved lives. I saved millions of dollars worth of fighter aircraft, of the US Air Force, the US Navy, and Britain's Royal Air Force.
I made a difference.
You can't say the same.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Millions of dollars of fighter aircraft is one half of wing on one fighter
Try again dicktard
Yea without you there would be no military, but face it if you were not there building locomotive powered ships and cleaning the head, someone else would have done it.
So are delusions of grandeur fun
Look, I know you feel bad about never having made a difference.
Too bad. Such a waste.
Still living in the past, pretending that without you everything fell apart.
You were a number, nothing more

How does the military exist without you
