Hellgate London, I played this game for four years, let me give up, I can not do. It is part of my life, although not for the life of all the games, over the past few years it has accounted for the majority of my space time, I find the time in amateur to own one of the sky, when I bored on it. In the game I spent a lot of money to buy Hellgate Palladium. And I bought my favorite things. I see a faithfully accompany so many times through the friends and feel good when friends come to chat on a single share their happiness, and feel very satisfactory thing.

Finally I also said that the most important thing is to find themselves on the state mind, playing their own, the same as me that if happy I will spend Hellgate gold to buy many things. I hope everyone can play happy in the game.

I’m impressed at the idiot-farm we have going here.
First off to the retards making comments about “not needing the F/A-22″.
Have any of you considered just what the USAF may be up against in the future? Or do you just like to complain and moan?
Consider these aircraft: The EF-2000 Eurfighter, the Dassault Rafael, the Saab JAS-39, Shenyang J-13 and the Sukhoi Su-47.
All of these aircraft are considerably more capable than the F-15 or F-16.
Most of them will without doubt be sold to our enemies, especially the Rafael, J-13 and Su-47. Almost every aircraft we’ve fought in the last forty years has been made in the same factories as those.
The F/A-22 is more capable than those aircraft, and would give us the advantage we need to bring most of our pilots home alive.
Do you not realize that, by keeping our airmen and women in second-rate aircraft, you are putting them at risk? Do you care?
Am I saying there aren’t issues with military procurement practices? Not at all, I can name a dozen projects that need to be axed right now, and the whole process needs to have the bureaucracy removed.
But if there is one project the USAF needs, it is the F/A-22, American soldiers have not had enemy bombs fall on their heads since World War Two, if we do not keep the edge, then that’s a trend we will not keep.
On the other hand, I see a lot of ideas here I’d like to see put to use, especially the concept of manufacturing replacement parts and modifications in theater. Many units could be made much more self-sufficient that way.
But what do I know, Im just a Military Industrial Complex/Halliburton/Zionist Conspiracy/Bushitler drone.

Have you ever looked at what it would cost you to build your car out of parts bought from the local parts store? It would cost several times what your car cost new and already assembled. Resurrecting old, used up airframes makes about as much sense. Why not fix what’s wrong with the military industrial complex instead of always trying to work around it?
We have needed a Mach 3 bomber ever since the B-70 was cancelled. There is no reason with all of today’s advances in technology (3D CAD, finite elements, CFD, NC milling, microprocessor based avionics) it should cost $1 Billion per airplane to build one today. It’s not cutting edge technology.
If people would start calling for an end to the waste, the waste would end. What’s wrong with the system now is pretty plain to see. What we need is a willingness in Washington DC to fix it.

Good Morning to all,
Here is a though and question that arose from the above conversation.
The U.S. Air Force is still embrolied in a scandal over an agreement with Boeing to lease new Boeing 767’s as in– flight refulers.
The amount of money being considered is in the tens of $billions and one person has already checked into the Gray Bar Motel over this.
With all the “Barely Used Airliners” in storage around the world why is the U.S. Air Force looking to lease to buy new aircraft for there refulers or for that matter these B-52H Air Frames for ESS operations. The existence of the 51 year old B-52 (I know the B-52H’s are only 40 years old on the average) says that many air frames are scrapped way before they need be.
All our AWAC’S and JSTAR’S are recycled Boeing 707’s from the ’60’s so it seems the idea is workable. A few years ago an AWAC was even traced back to having been leased by Air India in the ’70’s.
The question is why can’t more of this “Reserve Air Fleet” be aquired by the U.S.A.F. for aircraft used in none combat rolls?
I know the ultimate answer will be profits for stockholder in the “American Military Industrial Complex” and that will have to stand. But it does seem that there are cost saving measures out there that is good for the military and will free more scarce dollars for other projects.
ALLONS,
Byron Skinner

That's pretty ironic, using a stealth airplane to do jamming. Might just as well paint it orange with "HERE I AM" in 3 foot letters across the bottom. Maybe they could find room for a bull's-eye too. I'm sure there's no workload increase due to the jamming mission so a crew of 1 is plenty. That's why the EA-6B makes room for a crew of 4. Just another boondoggle, like the F-22B (2 seater). Maybe we can spend billions on it too, just to have the variant cancelled later when they roll all of it's budget into covering the cost overruns for the VTOL model.

Shep UK,
In fact, the Marines are considering an electronic attack version of the F-35B to replace their small force of EA-6Bs. The single-seat F-35 is already designed to use its electronic-scanning-array radar to fry enemy electronics. And with its large number of antennae, all it might take to turn the thing into a mini-EA-6B is more electrical output and enough processing to handle the work currently undertaken by the EA-6B’s crew of four.

Hiya all, my first post here but im a long time lurker ofn this fantastic site, today i noticed this however and was bloody angry - 'NATO generals regularly cite airborne jamming as one of Europe's major capability shortfalls. That means the West depends almost entirely on a small number of U.S. jamming aircraft to suppress air defenses in coalition air campaigns like those over Kosovo and Iraq' cheap skate Euros should buy there own jamming gear instead of keep poncing off the US as they have been for 50 odd years now. can't believe i just read that, just typical Euro's i guess, sighs sadly. I don't except they cannot aford them they just have no will to buy them because they know America supply them. Why America even bothers with the Euro leeches i don't know, i mean there to damn crap to even sort out problems in thier own back yard (balkens conflict) without US assets and even then the French veto'd over 700 targets - utterly lame Euros! Anyway what about a JSF version of an electronic warfare system? 1 crew i guess would suck but there'd be room wheer the lift fan was/is wouldn't there for some gear?
