F-35 Purchase

[punked]

Curious. Can you state the reason the Russians and Chinese are also developing 5th generation aircraft?

Curious. Can you tell me who entered into developing the 5th generation fighter first?

So I guess you are saying no to my question then?

Your answer to a question is another question?

The "rudder" on airplanes isn't really used to turn the machine. This is more a function of the ailerons and the elevator. The rudder is used to cancel or increase yaw.

Clearly the Americans.....so what about those Russians and Chinese?

Geeee I wonder why any nation would want to have the same military capabilities of another nation?

They have global ambitions and don't need an army for them. They are buying up Canada and African resources and I have yet to hear you say boo about that.

exactly.

He's busy trying to start an F-18 by yelling "contact" and spinning the turbine compressor.

That’s quite obvious no? And why would they Chinese and Russian develop an aircraft more advanced then the Super Hornet and why would the Americans and our NATO partners develop and purchase an aircraft more advanced then the Chinese, Russians and Super Hornet?

[Guest Derek L]

exactly.

I asked Punked, with no reply, so I'll ask you:

Why are the Chinese developing a Military capable of projecting power beyond their own borders?

Why are the Canadians?

[Guest Derek L]

Why are the Canadians?

Energy and water.

[punked]

Energy and water.

So we are doing it to protect our resources? Geee I wonder what the Chinese are doing.

[cybercoma]

Canada will be operating the F-35 until the 2040s to 2050s

Says the guy who said we don't need a 30-40 year LCC formula.

[punked]

It doesn't matter they already said every dollar we generate in Canada should go into the Military.

[Guest Derek L]

Sure…….notice the Chinese don’t have inherent energy and water.

[cybercoma]

Ergo when an aircraft type is no longer combat capable, we’re not maintaining our defence commitments to NORAD……..

Combat capable doesn't necessarily mean the F-35S.

[Guest Derek L]

Says the guy who said we don't need a 30-40 year LCC formula.

I said such formula is of little utility and not based in reality.

[Guest Derek L]

Combat capable doesn't necessarily mean the F-35S.

What else is there?

[punked]

Sure…….notice the Chinese don’t have inherent energy and water.

But they have almost all the words rare earth Metals. Metals to precious we are talking about building a rocket to go to an Asteroid to mine them because there will be huge shortages in the next 20 years. Sooooo what could they be afraid of?

We have already been through this. They don't care they going with that lie.

Sure.....And the next world war will clearly not be over ideology or religion. You got me!

Your Chinese masters are already sucking rare earth metals from African soil.

Maybe just maybe their wont be a next world war. I know if people like you get their way there will be but lets just hope.

No...if people like you get their way there will be world war. See: Origins of WW2. You'd have let Germany do whatever it wanted, too.

punked circa 1938: Sorry, Czechs. This is for world peace.

Awwww...I was wishing for the stealth Camel.
