  1. When will it be available to buy or see in the US?
  2. So does the resurrection ship simply give them the luxury of resurrecting close the their front line forces instead of having to travel back from the Hub which might take weeks.
  3. Does any one know if the Japanese have made any progress in their stealth fighter prototype.
  4. In the first season the Cylon Liobin said he was out side of the resurrection range when they caught him after they revealed to the fleet that the Cylon look humans. When ever a skin job was killed they resurrected to the nearest resurrection ship not the hub. This troubles me when the fleet was trying to gather enough material to Begin building new vipers a ace raider began killing vipers Sharon said that they did not have the ability to resurrect the raiders till they got a new resurrection ship.
  5. Now that Hiro no longer has a power are they done with time travel as a plot devise in the opening of the season?
  6. I went and re watched the beginning of Kings to see what the minister of energy did to piss off the King and he simply reminded him that they don't negotiate for hostages, but later the Reverend confronted the King about how he had ordered the military to withdrawal the air support. Was the king trying to get his son killed so he could replace him with his straight illegitimate son and punching out the messenger was a cover, and thought that the energy minister might become suspicious that is why King had him illuminated.
  7. So the writers of Macross took the term FAST pact from the real life military.
  8. Are they doing two versions one in English and one in Japanese does not sound dubbed when she speaks English? Who do they have playing David?
  9. What are the difference between the F-100 and the F-110 besides performance does the F-110 have a bigger diameter or length?
  10. I thought all engines used in US fighters with the exception of the F-18 GE-404 engines conform to the same umbilical connections fuel, Oil, and Electrical, mechanical allowing them to swapped. Are you a armchair military analyst like me, or do you actually have working knowledge of military technology.
  11. I did not say the old raiders were using old centurions; maybe they just daisy chained a bunch of new centurions together to fly the old raiders, or put a skin job in a retrofitted cockpit to allow one person to fly it. But if the New centurions use a organic brain like the rest of the Cylon units they would not be able to create new ones, and would be left only having the electromechanical versions assuming they can still manufacture electric brains. A question did the resurrection hub have the cloning equipment needed to make the blank body's or did they make them elsewhere? I have been confused since they destroyed the Hub because when Galactica destroyed the resurrection ship the Cylons pursuing them lost the ability to resurrect for a period of time. Did it take time for the Cylons to get reinforcements from the Hub (new resurrection ship) or move the Hub closer to the pursuit fleet? Is the range of resurrection limited, and does the resurrection ship Carry the necessary equipment necessary to download the Cylon consciousness? Is the resurrection Hub were they make new body's, and with out it they cant make new body's, and once they run out of spair body's they lose the ability permanently?
  12. But after the loss of the resurrection capability creating new brains for the raiders would be impossible why would Cavil not use the old models as cannon fodder. because they show the old Cylon raiders being used when boomer lands her Raptor on the colony.
  13. I thought that the F-15 and F-14 intakes are articulated was because of the technology of the late 60's when the they were originally developed was not as advanced as the F-18 F-16 which were developed ten years later and that is why they don't have variable geometry intakes. I believe that the engines in the F-14 F-15 and F-16 are interchangeable so if the F-132 can fit in to the F-16 it can fit in to the F-15. I was reading a article in Vol 7,Nn 10 of Combat Aircraft about the decomisioning of the F-14 when the F-110 engines were removed they would be sent to the USAF for use in the F-16. ing of the F-14 and they said that the F-110 engines in the F-14 were being distributed to F-16 units
  14. Yes it was the Sonic Cruiser sorry it's been a while since I read that article. Do you know if the conformal fuel tanks are integrated in to the F-15 structure, or are they removable. A Gripen is a dragon right and a Griffin in a mythical creature with a lions body and a eagles head and wings? That is what I get for trusting spell check. All of Sweden's fighters are named after dragons. What fighter has a FAST pack?
  15. So if the NUNS discovered a surviving SA ship, base, fleet would the Zentreadi demand it be destroyed after having the war go on for tens of thousands of years, and becoming ingrained in their culture (not singing) being incapable of forgetting the animosity/programing.
  16. Stealth is half RAM half geometry no stealth aircraft hase right angles. The 90 degree angles of the vertical tail give off a large amount of RADAR reflections, and by giving it a slight cant you reduce the RADAR return.
  17. Super cruse like what the Griffin has is a result of the aerodynamics of the aircraft not the engines. Popular Mechanics had a article a few years ago; Boeing had planed to develop a 777 size airliner. The Aircraft would have high subsonic cruse capability which was made possible by using computational fluid-dynamics modeling which allows the engineers to maximize air flow for maximum performance. In the article Boeing had tried it out on a F-15 and it broke the sound barrier with out using it's afterburner.
  18. Can they incorporate the avionics from the F-22 Raptor (RADAR, FlyByWire, and ECM), and supper cruse.
  19. Maybe cavil put the old type back into service because they cant create new raiders brains with the lose of the resurrection ability. Do the Centurion's have a organic brain like the raiders?
  20. Are all LFO's made out of a life form like the Nirvash?
  21. But what happens when the robots anger eclipses the fear, or they come to a logical conclusion that taking over will stop the people from being angry?
  22. Will Galactica survive the attack on the colony? They show the Admiral piloting a viper in one of the shots.
  23. Is that a full scale aircraft, or a model? It does not have a S-shaped intake, of all the stuff I have read on stealth technology the compressors of a turbo fan engine is the most reflective part of a airplane.
  24. After I watched the show it was the first time in my life I have ever used the word bushwa in a sentence. Thank god George Washington had the sense to not make himself a king. Is Gilboa supposed to be in North America.
  25. Was this some Fan creation? I thought it was pretty good for a spoof.
