even without the bombers and fighters, we still have submarines with missiles that can strike and submerge

2020-11-11 04:13:19 UTC  

F-22's are amazing and air superiority

@PantherUnit01 indeed

2020-11-11 04:13:30 UTC  

yall are also forgetting another thing, China has put massive work into anti-missile and anti-bomb laser technology

2020-11-11 04:13:30 UTC  

> while we cant really see the B2's and the F-35's with radar splashing them from the front, radar splashing an F-35 from the rear will make it light up like a christmas tree on broadway
That's why electronic warfare aircraft would probably be sent in before anything else

@Zilla It works, 40% of the time, it has yet to be perfected, they are copying it from Israel's Iron Dome technology

2020-11-11 04:14:38 UTC  

even if it only works 40% of the time, that still heavily hampers our abilities to actually bomb them

2020-11-11 04:14:55 UTC  

America holds the Unique advantage of being to combine the Quality and Quantity aspects of good armies, which is an advantage we need to effectively utilize to be able to fight China and hold the advantage

2020-11-11 04:15:07 UTC  

True

2020-11-11 04:15:33 UTC  

plus I'd take that 40% chance, China has poor QC

2020-11-11 04:15:39 UTC  

and even then, we can always use EMPs and such to disable defence systems

2020-11-11 04:15:45 UTC  

Screw it. Bring the P-51 back as drones and just spam them LMAO

2020-11-11 04:15:52 UTC  

lol

2020-11-11 04:15:54 UTC  

LOOOOOOOL

2020-11-11 04:16:03 UTC  

yes

2020-11-11 04:16:13 UTC  

.50 cal rain from hell incoming

2020-11-11 04:16:32 UTC  

also from what iv heard, the US has been testing out a P-51 look alike as a suppliment to our A-10 warthog fleets

2020-11-11 04:16:50 UTC  

Just make so many of them that they overwhelm air defences

@Zilla why on earth does congress want to get rid of the A-10 anyway?

2020-11-11 04:17:26 UTC  

The A-10 is extremely vulnerable in a contested environment.

@ThiccSpicyGenderRevealParty Supposedly because its too expensive to maintain

2020-11-11 04:17:37 UTC  

hmm

2020-11-11 04:17:40 UTC  

@ThiccSpicyGenderRevealParty because no more are being made due to the original creators filing for bankruptcy in 2002 and they are becoming every more expensive to maintain because of that

2020-11-11 04:18:01 UTC  

we cant just make something that does just as well but cheaper?

2020-11-11 04:18:03 UTC  

It flies *slower* than WW2 fighters. And it can only take so much punishment.

2020-11-11 04:18:07 UTC  

ah i see

2020-11-11 04:18:49 UTC  

> we cant just make something that does just as well but cheaper?
@ThiccSpicyGenderRevealParty There's the F-16XL/F-21 and the F-15E

2020-11-11 04:18:54 UTC  

normally if it were at a actual production rate, the A-10 would be very cheap to repair because its design is very simple, but because it is no longer in production its just becoming more and more expensive

2020-11-11 04:19:08 UTC  

huh

2020-11-11 04:19:10 UTC  

damn

2020-11-11 04:19:20 UTC  

They're supposedly getting new wings

2020-11-11 04:19:54 UTC  

probably upgrading them for better load capacity for anti-ground weapons

2020-11-11 04:20:05 UTC  

I also heard that there were supposed to recieve the YA-10B Blackout Upgrade which made them stealth

2020-11-11 04:20:27 UTC  

It also can carry only the Maverick AGM missile. And nothing else

2020-11-11 04:20:30 UTC  

we most likely wont see most of the upgrades come to them till 2030 as well

2020-11-11 04:21:01 UTC  

I hope the YA-10B is real, we got the concept for it in Ace Combat 5 and Arma 3

2020-11-11 04:21:03 UTC  

i see until we get them we'll have to rely on good'ole naval firepower then

2020-11-11 04:21:09 UTC  

That being said I do expect a major overhaul of a majority of the fleet that won't be scrapped. Or retired

2020-11-11 04:21:29 UTC  

Oh that reminds me

2020-11-11 04:21:41 UTC  

the A-10's can carry more than Maverick's, they can carry a host of Rockets, Gun Pods, and JDaM 1,000 pound bombs
