That was quite a meat truck. Maybe ISIS could use some hits from some old air tanks like that instead of f35s.

We were successful warriors because we were human, not regulated zomboids under ROE

That’s pretty much the A-10s role. Tough enough to survive getting shot up. Slow enough to loiter and kill them all.

To fit a toilet seat on an F-35 it would take 8 years of engineering, several hundred flight hours for captive carriage and ballistics testing, an environmental impact assessment on the use of porcelain in a sand environment, a new software update to the Operational Flight Planning computer, a new weapons loader to handle the toilet, radar cross section testing to verify the affects of the toilet on the cross section of the aircraft and another $45b 3 year delay after testing is completed..

Remember it only took 13 years to land on a carrier.
