Military spending is about all Republican politicians and office holders are good for.

Let's get out there and vote for these new tools.

At six times the speed of sound, you could fly from New York to Los Angeles in about 32 minutes (if my math is right).

If these weapons are in the hands of America hating politicians (0bama. Hillary, Bernie) how exactly does it help us. It would be better if there was a software defeat for when democRATs are in control.

Lockheed Martin revealed on Tuesday it is on the brink of a technological breakthrough that could lead to the US developing military aircraft that can fly six times the speed of sound.

Stupid Lockheed, they should have waited til January, now all our enemies will have the technology too. Thank you obama.

[AFreeBird]

Well great. The F35 sucks.

[ThunderSleeps]

I don’t know, lots of companies are “on the brink of” many significant developments. But until it actually works, color me skeptical. Sounds like a little self promotion.
