D@V£: The USA is developing the hypersonic scram jet engine (explained). Imagine a crusie missile that flies at mach 7. By the time your defence system has reacted to the incomeing threat ie fired a missile the target is out of range. Also for defensive purposes the US has developed laser technology desgned to shoot down fast moving inbound missiles. Called the "Airbone Laser" Boeing basically put a massive high-energy laser weapon system on a jumbo jet for the destruction of tactical theatre ballistic missiles. (cut-away) It is said that the Russians have their own versions but we dont know. Cheers has that got somthing to do with the mysterious 'Aurora'? -------------------- |

And I suppose they're going to have these aircraft in the skys 24 hours a day accross every bit of the entire planet? Now, normally I wouldn't object to that, but you can't stick a nuclear reactor on a plane! It'd be too heavy! They already did that with B-36s 50 or so years ago. So 'tis not much of an issue. -------------------- Hakkaa päälle Pohjan poika!

@Trev: Aurora was a leaked story of the idea for a scram jet (which became the X-43) in the late 80's that was used to distract attention away from other black projects. While everyone was looking for Aurora Lockheed's Skunk Works was toying with anti-gravity air vehicles.
@D@V£ QUOTE And I suppose they're going to have these aircraft in the skys 24 hours a day accross every bit of the entire planet Lol no not quite. Just the USA. The X-45 and the naval X-47 are UCAV's (Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle's) designed to patrol US airsapce 24/7. Armed with missiles and bombs they will opperate without human interaction, refueling themselves, patroling by themselves and most importantly engaging a target by themselves (eventually). It is a very scary thought...Skynet from Termaintor anyone? lol -------------------- |

They already did that with B-36s 50 or so years ago. So 'tis not much of an issue. Yeah, but 50 years ago scientists were trying to tell everyone that we don't need to drive about in cars more because there was no such thing as global cooling. Well... I guess if I say anymore I'll be put under surviallance by yet another obscure group with no reason to whatsoever.

Its not that hard patrolling 24/7 with human pilots.
Wher do you think the NATO AWACs are att all times? And Dave trust me a WWII Steel pot helmet will not do as good as my ACH MICH 2002 and abut Aurora its belived to be a Mach 7+ Unmaned spy plane taking over after SR-71 Blackbird. The Aurora Project only have cust the US Tax payers 6.77Billion Dollars. Other Lockheed Skunk Works isent in that budget (aka the U2, B2, F117 Uppgrade program) If the Aurora is a Mach 7+ plane it can fly from a base in the US to russian airspace faster then the radar operators will even know its in the air A airplane in Mach 7+ will not be that strange after all the North American X-15 did Mach 6.7 in the 1960s so -------------------- Sergeant Major retired, SOF, JSOC.

Well... I guess if I say anymore Say Paramore and HH will get a hard-on. Well, then it was 1 MW and weighted probably few dozen tonnes. A B-36 has a payload of 33 tonnes. B747 can lift roughly 100-150 tonnes if needed. -------------------- Hakkaa päälle Pohjan poika!

The excuse of the White House is sickening transparent. Russia with it's capability to turn the entire world into ember is at least theoretically a menace, whilst Iran surely is not.
Irans alleged reaching towards nukes is only a measure to fortify Teherans position against Washington and Tel Aviv, since the number of bombs Iran is apparently preparing is nothing compared to the tens of thousands of warheads the Satan brothers have at their disposal. A nuclear armed Iran will be able to determine the oil value at will, and the US fear nothing more than an uncontrollable skyrocketing of the price of the stuff that make their economy being the worlds finest. For the same reason, they strongly oppose the axis between Caracas and Teheran. -------------------- |

Better reject that idea. The original version of this badge was created by some warriors who went into OEF once.
I strongly opposed the Iraq War, by the way, and so do I oppose military actions against Iran. I'd rather see the Nato launch a full scale assault against Sudan for their continous support of serious war crimes in Darfour. Unfortunately, the people of Darfour don't sit on oil. -------------------- |

Still doesn't change the fact that your avatar can be interpreted as pro-Iraq war

Crusaders were Christians sent to the east to find converts for Christianity not Arabs to begin with IIRC.

Crusaders were Christians sent to the east to find converts for Christianity not Arabs to begin with IIRC. Uhm...No. After the Muslim armies had occupied Jerusalem in the Middle Ages, the Pope called for the deployment of a great force of knights to free the 'Holy City' again. That was the Crusade, named after the occidental red cross on white background the knights used as their symbol, and after they had defeated the Muslim armies, they built the Dome Of The Rock on the Temple Mount. Since that day, these folks have been known as the Templars. Today, radical Muslims refer to many people by which they feel offended as 'Crusaders', but in their insanity not only to single persons like the murdered Theo van Gogh, but also to things or companies, for example McDonalds or Pepsi Cola. -------------------- |

Be careful what you say, the Crusades were wars, too.
