Erm, Israel is not backing out, their pilots are training in the US, and they've already received their first jet. http://aviationweek.com/defense/israel-s-f-35-app-and-its-implications Calling it one of the worst WVR fighters ever made just tells me you don't know what you are talking about...

Pretty bad clickbait title. Yes China is aiming to land a ROVER on Mars. You can tell they are trying to mislead because their closest reference is "in the footsteps of the U.S. Viking 1", and yet no explicit statement of 'rover'. The writer knew what he was doing... Anyways I suppose China...

That's definitely not a hard and fast rule though, no one will look at you strangely if you offer to shake a woman's hand first (though it is a bit too formal in more casual settings). Yea, it is not only extremely rude to refuse to shake a person's offered hand, it's just sexist if its...

any videos?

Too slow for any modern anti-air defence systems.All that armor won't do much against an AAM as well. It was proven in the gulf war against Iraq that the A-10 is not survivable against that, and in an uncontested environment there is no real need for the armor, and something cheaper to fly (like...

The A-10 flies too low and slow for any contested environment these days, even small arms fire. An F-35 can accomplish the mission just as well with precision weaponry in a low intensity conflict, is more effective in a contested environment, and creates less risk to the pilot, though troops...

What does congress ordering a study into the feasability of re-opening the F-22 Raptor line have to do with the Pentagon not liking the F-35? It was never designed to replace the F-15, it was designed to replace both the F-16 and F-18. The rain bit that guy gave was ludicrous, but it is a...

Sounds like a Filipino Trump, I doubt he'll win.

Don't think I'll trust my life to a Chinese autonomous car until there is more verification (preferably from Chinese consumers). China doesn't exactly have a good history when it comes to quality control. Autonomous at a staged event is not worth a mention, lets see it on the roads.

Read more about this and my hypothesis was totally wrong! It is correct that this ban is due to price concerns, because Indian launchers are government owned, and so they have incentive to 'dump' their rockets to crush the competition without worrying about profit...

Only on PDF does a bar fight in a foreign country (if you can even call that a fight) equal Foreign country has no pride. Poor form.

If the missiles are pushed back inland, reducing their effective range, then the countermeasures are already showing success.

You never really know here whether its hyperbole or not, there are some real characters here....

For anyone interested, here is exhibit 1 :D

I don't think there has been any doubt about Saudi wahhabi terror links to 9/11. The conspiracy theory is the involvement of the Saudi government in its official capacity. Even just a member of the Saudi royal family being implicated would be very damaging. The Saudis though are very very...

This is very interesting read that I missed. Again many anti-Americans underestimate the independence US allies have. They are not vassals by any means. Clinton e-mail: U.S. asked Japan to talk with China before buying Senkakus January 31, 2016 By KENJI MINEMURA/ Correspondent...

I'd think she'd be more friendly than Obama, but less than GWB. as for why? She has the history. She is the moderate democrat, some even call her the 'conservative' democrat. Socially she is very liberal but I don't think she is going to try to break the mold on foreign policy like Obama has...

If you support the murder of foreigners for beer tapping pranks, that speaks worse about you than Americans or Filipinos.

Sanders isn't the cause of the split, its been splitting for a while now. Israel simply isn't seen as the end all for Jews by many American Jews and Israeli values and priorities have been shifting from the priorities and values of American Jews (and vice versa). That's not to say Israel doesn't...

wow. didn't catch that pointing, I thought they just brandished it!. Even more kudos to the marines, holy sh*t that's just crazy that he actually pointed it at them over a beer prank! :o: They should definitely not just be suspended but fired and barred from any jobs involving firearms. The...
