It's 1965 all over again. Break out your copy of Fail Safe and Dr. Strangelove......

Interesting. More so Putin flying a 5 hour sortie in Tupolev Tu-160 Blackjack.

And to think, everybody thought that my dad was cazy when he went and made that bomb shelter in the 70's. I wonder if the food is still good down there, might need it after all.

No kiddin' ! We need another President Reagan-esque man in the white house with cojones to hopefully put Putin on his place. Yeah baby!!!

Makes you think does it not, now what about the thread, do we need carriers?

[no4mkit]

Good point Jim!

And maybe we should bring back our F-14's with their Phoenix missiles - tailor made to address the Soviet Bear question.

Where are the F-14's when you need them?

I bet right now the admirals in the navy are wishing they had a counter measurer….and the last time I checked the F-18 super bug is only half the interceptor the F-14 was.

To bad the F/A-37 is not a real aircraft.

But the science is real for the forward swept wing design
