Project Foil Guesses?

[MANFRED]

Amen to that

[rifleman_btx]

Honestly, nostalgia over modern any second of the year.

Seahawk; now there's a plane you'd never have to worry about them selling out!

Perhaps you are a bit jaded against 50's jets? Bet they would sell the crap out of them in England

Here's Project Foil:

Breaking *news: It's going to be a Gnat! *[fake]

That would be nice too, in Yellowjackets livery.

Well I like it, and it looks like it would be a good first EDF for a newbie.

Maybe we should be thinking away from US aircraft with the new EU Motion RC connection. I'm thinking RAF fighter jets, Hunter, Sea Hawk, Tornado, Lightning, tempest etc

My Dad was a WWII vet. ETO.
Battle of the Bulge. Bastogne, Hurtgen Forest, etc... 2 Bronze Stars, one with "V" for valor... That is the way to fight and win....

[Hardway]

And bordering on getting political...

That's what has been wrong with the way USA has conducted war since WWII... We didn't actually aim to win by DESTROYING the enemy's capability to make war for generations. Conan the Barbarian had the right idea... Crush your enemies, hear the lamentations of their women. THEN its Miller time.

Hell yes!!!!!!!!!! YEP Roger and all of that stuff!!! Play to win or don't play at all!!! :Angry::Angry:

[fhhuber]

Well yea, kill or be killed basically. By any and all means possible.

Listen guys, I know that Project Foil isn't this particular aircraft, at least I assume so. But I think it has to be considered at some point in time as ranking up there with the best of them. Look at the stats at the end of the video and tell me if they don't give you pause. To all my British Commonwealth friends, this is a tribute to our heritage, would we consider adding this to our hangar. I feel its almost our patriotic duty.

Yup if you give your enemy any chance you cost unneeded lives. Distroy the enemy and dont look back. Basically try to end it before it starts.

I did a little reading on this apparently most of the Egyptian planes were destroyed on the ground. They didn't stand a fighting chance.

Woody

In war... we call that: "winning"

The best way to shoot down a Me-262 in WWII was to wait for it to start its landing approach. Once the wheels started coming down, they had to go all the way down before they could be retracted again. That left the airplane vulnerable for over 40 seconds with wheels slowing it + several more while it tried to regain speed.
A P-51 could out-turn it at speed, but all the Me262 had to do was NOT turn and just fly away. Getting into a maneuvering contest was just a bad idea for the Me262.

You do what works in war. Giving the other guy a fair chance meant you wanted to lose.

[Woodcock]

The reason I didn't mention the Israeli planes is the key word "died". The Egyptians lost 10X as many planes as the Israelis did. For that matter the lost more planes than the Israeli Air Force had,

[mr.frankenjet]

only room for 1 bomber, B29 high on the list, B1, B2, all would find a home here

[Valkpilot]

The Israeli Air Force.... Using these aircraft:

Dassault Mirage III, Dassault Super Mystère, Sud Aviation Vautour, Mystere IV, Dassault Ouragan
