The first fighter jet to randomly drop elements of the aircraft on the enemy before jettisoning the pilot and crashing into a friendly.
Now, I wouldn't say the first... There was the F-104 Starfighter.
spoiler
And, yes, if you've ever seen MST3k, it was that one.The lawn dart.
Even the Germans called it The Widowmaker.
We've given an order for a lot. We can't tell you the price,
Goddamn, that's all we needed to do. Biden orders a shit ton of solar panels and batteries and then just say "nah, I'm not going to tell you the price."
Any Democrat not on this "I'm not saying" budget plan just needs to GTFO of Congress yesterday. Who needs power of the purse when you can just say "make me" when Congress asks you to follow the law?
Wasn't he badmouthing Boeing like a week ago because they couldn't get the new air force one built on time?
Boeing's Representative: "Sir, that's going to take a long time even under ideal conditions."
This country is full of the biggest fucking cucks of all time. And I hate using that word, but it's accurate in this case.
It took less than two months for these "don't tread on me" patriots to completely throw away every single value they ever claimed to care about in the name of a non-American billionaire. It's fucking pathetic.
I know it's an old refrain, but I think it's important to think about sometimes... just imagine what the right would do if a Democrat did even a fraction of what this administration has done since January 20. We would be in the middle of an all out civil war if they even talked about doing the kind of shit that's being done right now (and how it's being done).
Yes, F 47. F 47 indeed.
I guess F-310N was already taken...
F-elon indeed. Two birds, one stone
Odds are that airplane will never fly
The technology behind this will power Trump's slush fund for years to come however
They’ll autopilot directly to Russia.
Today’s Boeing: “The quality goes in before the name goes on” /S
watch the Netflix documentary ‘Downfall: The Case Against Boeing’ to see how Boeing’s product quality has fallen since corporate folks took over from the engineers
Unless you were intending the subtle joke, you should include the full title "Downfall: The Case Against Boeing." There's a movie about Hitler with an iconic scene that's been memed heavily named simply "Downfall."
thanks for that—will try editing post for clarification

Congratulations, to all of our enemy nations.
I think that this haze gray stuff is getting passé in an era of beyond-visual-range combat. I'm thinking an orange paint job on this one.
Is it still beyond visual range if you can't detect it on radar until it's 100ft away?
The F-47 Douche
I saw someone call it the felon-47 and thought that was pretty good
I'm surprised Musk didn't tell Boeing that it needs to be named the F-69 if they want the contract
Can they collaborate with Tesla?
