The U.S. Air Force has a message for Iran: Don’t mess with our drones.

In what only can be described as a scene out of Tom Cruise’s “Top Gun,” Gen. Mark A. Welsh III, Air Force chief of staff, describes how F-22 stealth jets scared off Iranian jets from a U.S. drone flying in international airspace.The Aviationist reports that in March a U.S. MQ-1 drone came close to being intercepted by an Iranian F-4 Phantom combat plane, but the Iranian aircraft stopped short after a warning by an American pilot.

“He [the Raptor pilot] flew under their aircraft [the F-4s] to check out their weapons load without them knowing that he was there, and then pulled up on their left wing and then called them and said ‘you really ought to go home,’” Gen. Welsh said.

According to The Aviationist, the Iranians came within 16 miles of the drone.

kinda aviation question.... in the mid to late 80s there was a arcade game where you were a japanese zero and you shot down american ww2 planes. it was played from the perspective of afterburner, i.e. from the rear. i played it on Okinawa alot, but i only found it in the arcades on the military bases. i cant for the life of me remember the name.any one know what i am talking about?

the cause of the oxygen problems in the raptor has been found....... http://gizmodo.com/5931838/air-force-says-tight-vests-are-what-has-been-grounding-all-these-f+22s

an air force pilot decided he wanted to test the minimum runway needed to land and take off again in a c-17 http://www2.tbo.com/news/news/2012/jul/20/12/huge-air-force-cargo-plane-lands-at-davis-islands--ar-437276/

video of the landing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6n29Ie2f7w

according to what i read is they are going to fold some of enders shadow into the movie. and harrison ford is in it.

One of the best sci fi i have read in a while, enders game was on again and off again being talked being made into a movie. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1731141/

crazy ass low pass of a B-52 on the uss ranger in the 90s http://gizmodo.com/5894077/b+52-low-pass-flyby-is-even-crazier-than-you-thought

I don't totally buy the F-35 being the star of Top Gun II. This is how I think it will play out:

The Navy pilots are high-fiving each other over their shiny new F-35C's, until a dangerous technical fault with the tailhooks grounds the whole fleet !...But then, OH NOEZ an unholy cabal of the 1% working with Mexican drug dealers, Russian ultranationalists, and the Venezuelan North Korean haters be hatin association hire a PMC air force to invade America. They are led by the enigmatic Troll-Face Squadron flying all black SU-35BM's

Nope... can't spare any Hornets. That only leaves ONE OPTION... a few remaining F-14's that have not been turned into scrap are brought back into action. Maverick will have a new WSO callsign Warlock-Ninja played by Charlie Sheen. These antiquated but powerful fighters slowly turn the tide of battle. Maverick's squad then faces off against Troll-Face squadron and it's revealed that their leader is none other than Goose flying a PAK-FA.

Goose is naturally upset that Maverick almost got him killed until his body was rebuilt with robot parts by the Illuminati, and the two have one epic dogfight. Just as the PAK-FA lines up the F-14 for the kill, Mav pulls the brake (no one saw this coming)... Goose desperately tries to Pugachev the PAK-FA, but it's too late...

In the final scene, Mav and Goose have a Newtype moment where they are floating in space playing volleyball, and Goose finally forgives Mav, before the PAK-FA explodes.

The F-14's land aboard the carrier and there is celebration, etc. In the horizon, alien UFO's suddenly appear and start attacking all of Earth's major cities. The stage is now set for Top Gun III: The Independence Day Chronicles.

now we all know the three movies made toooo much money for there not to be another one. and with micheal bay big robots = big explosions

Film director Michael Bay together with Paramount Pictures has confirmed this week that a fourth installment of the popular Transformers movie franchise is coming.

Filming is expected to start later this year for a release on June 29, 2014 and so far it appears that none of the original human cast members are set to return.

While the new movie is expected to be a sequel to last year’s Transformers 3 - Dark of the Moon, the fourth highest global grossing film of all time with $1.124 billion of worldwide box office success, it will be a more serious film, with less of the jokes and hopefully more action.

We don’t have any more solid details but according to the guys at Autoblog a script is yet to be written so anything could change before the movie's release. You can bet Optimus Prime and Bumblebee will be back, but what’s not clear is whether General Motors will sign on again as its contract with the Transformers franchise was for only three movies.

it kinda pissed me off that they had the Tuskeegee Airmen in p 40s in Itally and they only had them in THe north africa campaign. prior to getting P-51s they were in P-47s a fighter that could argueable be equal to the P-51.

a good flick but historically inaccurate.i can forgive dtuff like that though.

I got my blueray player from sony and a link to crackle.com was preloaded on it.

i was flipping through the free stuff and found Macross and some other Anime series for FREEEEEEE of course my bandwith is crap because i only have dsl.

yeah quick google search has the stunt plane as a fake it starts as a real plane and turns into a rc plane

i knew about the f-15 pilot. so when i found it i posted it

yeah, i kinda figured he had no other alternative

Epic save of a stunt aircraft

i was annoyed at how enterprise went. there were a few good episodes. but it flopped mostly.

voyager was the same. but some of my favorite epps were " message in a bottle" "the year from hell" was entertaining and the episode where tom paris got busted for saving the floating sphere of liquid.

i didnt not even watch ds9 till the Defiant came along and my brother pointed it out then i watched it.

movies wise i love 2-4. i hate 1 and 5 loved undiscovered country. felt meh with generations loved first contact

felt meh with insurrection and was ok with nemesis,i think Picard should have died instead of Data. (how many ships can one guy lose before starfleet says enough)

i dont love jj star trek as much as wrath of khan but i like it pretty well. i would love it if enterprise had red nacelles but i am ok with it

one of the things i liked about the recent movie was that the crew was thrown together.

voyager was likeable a times for the same reasons. i like the concept of a worn out ship on the border , what is cool with this concept is some of existing established aliens are usually found in run down old ships and would make for more even battles.

we know the feds still use old ships as we see them all the time so the production can reuse models.

what i thought would be cool concept though would be a strike carrier type federation ship

SOUNDS LIKE A DAMN MIRROR UNIVERSE SERIES.

We could only wish. Constellation is canceled and we go to nothing instead.

we still have a pretty good presence in space

so should I read the book(s) first?

yes so you cry when they rape the story. there has not been a decent tarzan movie yet so why would john carter of mars be any different

Arcee sisters are dead according to Orci and Kurtzman. Two were shot, one was fighting last seen. Skids and Mudflap were originally intended in but were cut. Oh yeah don't blink as they are at the NEST base entrance scene at the end of the line. Lousy editing job.

Jolt.. Jolt was really a last minute addition for the Chevy Volt. Really a Deuce Ex Machina device for Optimus' power up in ROTF. DOTM prequel comic has Shockwave kill him.

'Nuff said, huh?

OK, now this is GREAT! This should be the official trailer. No BS, just pure unadulterated "THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE PAYING FOR" advertising strategy. Like they say in the UK, "It does exactly what it says on the tin".

megatron is whom i think will be featured as the character for 3s dvd release
