please tell me we aren’t using the B-2 for something an F-15 or F-18 can do?
WTF? I find myself saying that a lot lately.
Waste more money. 3 wars = USA bankruptcy.
This is so much like how Rome failed. Let invaders (illegals) flood in, insane corruption, bancrupt the country, have the Roman Army off fighting useless wars.
The corrupt Roman leadership had bread and circuses to fool the population aka food stamps and TV. The idiots who watch TV enable hussein.
C’mon, these guys have been sitting and playing cards in the hangar for a long time. They need to blow the dust off those wings once and a while.
The B-2 is going in when the SAM sites are still active to get rid of same. An F15 or F18 can’t do that with impunity. A stealth aircraft can. F117’s could have been used if we still had them in the inventory AND they had a base to fly from. But - we retired them so the only stealth bomber we have is the B2.
The B2s take out the anti-aircraft artillery and the air defense radars for surface to air missiles. Then the F-15s and F-18s can go in with far less risk.
Obama wore his Tuxedo to the slam dance.
Just like his old lady wearing $500 sneakers to visit the homeless.
Or F-117s or F-22s.
I’m not even sure a cruise missle couldn’t have done it. if they need ‘practice’ then I guess it’s fine, but it does seem like overkill...no pun intended. I’m upset I wasn’t consulted, but I guess I’ll just let the USAF decide on this one.
