I would avoid making sweeping political statements.

Anyway back to real life On topic mode, The Dutch have made up thier mind's for a replacement of the F-16 though, this was their favourite member!

Lockheed F35A Joint Strike Fighter
...

She's a beauty allright no doubt about that and it's our first Stealth based plane too   Grin They cost 60 Mil a piece., that's quite cheap for a plane like that.

You see what your media and government wishes you to see and they have their own bias and agendas.

I saw a few planes you may like this weekend, I'll try to post some shots.

This is where I spent my weekend-

http://www.wpafb.af.mil/museum/

There was a few Russian planes there too.

w00t! Thanx Gary, and the Memphis Belle is a very well known plane also, I have it in a nice Die caste Metal 1/144 scale model, I recieved from my just past-away Grand Father,  He was an old W.W.II hero, and he recieved that plane because he was a member of the DDA. that refers to Dutch Dakota Accosiation and the Royal Marchausee.

Anyways thanx for the great site Smiley

But my question is , What happened to the YF-23 BlackWidow, why was the YF-22 alot better?

the YF-23 had a greater range, it did carry less, but it did have a higher speed an manueverbillity didn't it?
The YF-23 is my favourite ATF Smiley

The black one:
...

The grey one:
...


@ Patience, we can go on for hours , but that is not the idea.

Everyone has thier own meanings of things, I don't want to disturb people about that, because it's pointless.

Anyway, I hope you arn't mad at me or so, because I didn't mean to upset people here, I'm just different like everyone else is.


May the Force Be With Us All.

You would be surprised the number of people here who swallow everything they hear in the news without a second thought.

The "left" tried very hard to steal this last election and the media pretty much gave them a free pass to do so without saying a word.

Not if all nations ban together setting aside their own $$$ interests and destroy these animals like the mad dogs they are.

It pains me greatly to see a leader in Europe snub the US while visiting a certain well known terror figure on his deathbed.

His personal actions sends a clear message which I'm sure does not reflect what his other countrymen think.

Alright folks, let's keep this Thread On-Topic, which are Aircraft, just plain Aircraft.

Last time I strapped an armed Figher under my butt, it certainly did not start any political discussions when I cranked its engines Wink

PS.
Yes, Politics is dirty, kills people for money and power, and alot of people would need to learn alot of things to actually fully comprehend that (which would probably scare the sh*t out of some). But that's open for discussion for another Thread (preferrably one with Ceramic heatshields *g*) Wink

Actually that artwork is very well found  Wink  With those massive angines the front of the F4 looks kinda like the big rhino. I dont know the code for resizing pictures in this forum but this sure looks nice : http://archive.cs.uu.nl/pub/AIRCRAFT-IMAGES/F4-Phantom-formation.jpg
