marx Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 What is the front of the nose for on the harrier jet? Why do some have it and others not? Is this the make believe science technology thread? I haven't posted in a while. But seeing my valid post being deleted makes me wonder if Shawn and Graham handed out admin privileges to some douche bags. This just doesn't seem normal. Or at least the old normal from the earlier years on the forums. If that's the case. Feel free to delete this account I won't be coming back. Not even to buy or sell anything. Actually just delete the account, no point arguing with idiots. And I won't be tempted to come back. Thanks Shawn Graham for the good days on the forums. and mac news.

VFTF1 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) Is this the make believe science technology thread? No - it's the - and I quote: Science and Technology MEGA THREAD, New and interesting science stories here Thread. (I highlighted, underlined and italicized the pertinent portion) It it not the "ask questions about science/technology in an airplane" thread. I actually don't think we have a proper aviation thread. I'm sure if you just asked one of the mods instead of PMSing - then they'd tell you to open an "Aviation Technology" thread. Given that there's plenty of people in the modeling forum who love modeling airplanes etc, I'm sure they'd be interested in maybe contributing, reading and discussing aviation.

The worst part is that NASA's getting an additional 6 billion dollars, so it's not even about saving money.

Oh, and there is a length limit too, which has the added effect of destroying the English language as people try and cram more sentences with unusual shorthand. Dude, I'm not even imagining it. I actually spend time pretty much every day reminiscing of my younger, simpler, scifi-anime-inspired days when the year 2010 would have flying cars and Mars bases. Instead I wake up to a world where my homeland of Peru is still a third-world country (worse now since the Machu Picchu disaster must've crippled the tourism industry), global warming is "all the rage" and yet they want us to buy stupid digital TVs before they phase out analogues, and now the manned space program is over. I'm glad I have a roof over my head, a job and a family, but seriously, this planet and the people in charge of it are shooting down my dreams one by one. And what's left when you've killed your sparkly-eyed inner child? sigh.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Train Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Something inside me saying that wouldnt be a good idea unless the projectile is like the same polarity else it would just attract it and basicly add more energy into the projectile to dump back into you. LOL that would be kind of funny. It could be tactically useful to draw fire though . The article was a bit vague, but I think it has more to do with deforming the projectile with electricity rather than make it bounce off. Far from a force-field like defensive device. In my opinion, the "Trophy" anti-projectile system developed for the Israeli army is probably more implementable with today's technologies. It's just tit for tat really, with sufficient kinetic energy, any armor can be defeated.... enter the railgun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
