Does NORAD have the grids on its maps?

Maps, shmaps. Do you have any idea what instrumentation is packed into an F-16? It is packed with really fantastic all-weather imaging, GPS mapping, and a huge assortment of things we have not dreamed of.

“It is packed with really fantastic all-weather imaging, GPS mapping, and a huge assortment of things we have not dreamed of.”

I can dream about a lot of things, I don’t know about you, but it is still piloted by a human under the command of humans. Human’s especially those worrying about their next fitness report and with a lawyer looking over their shoulder can make a lot of mistakes. Remember the same humans didn’t think of a 911 scenario until after it happened.

Believe me technology doesn’t solve all problems. GIGO is always operative in every decision process.
