Walterjn Mattyv it's a tie for me that a winner can only be decided by the job required; for the sheer mystique and secrecy, the SR71 can't be beat. For sheer dependability and ability to take a beating yet bring pilots home, the A10 every day....
Rickochet Par4QC Why don't you guys take this aeroplane bullshit to another thread? Who fucking cares? Maybe the guys who like aeroplane bullshit. 😜
Walterjn Bravopilot hahahahaha, CAS in a BUFF would be a bad thing to be on the receiving end. That this has another large cannon I believe...
Bravopilot Walterjn Did, not now, they removed it after the first Gulf War as it wasn't practical and can't determine what is behind you. Eliminated Gunner crew position as well.
Walterjn Bravopilot the pilot can see all the way through to what is behind him?? Wow... Suck there is no tail gunner to keep people off you...
Bravopilot Walterjn Actually, the model (B-52D) with the tail gunner retired before my days (flew B-52G/Hs). In my days the Gunner sat near the front and used an old technology radar to shoot the guns. Say my days, the current B-52s were made in 1960/61
