Subject: F-16 with Full effect thrust vectoring nozzle
Name:
Message: I was just wondering if anyone had heard about an expiremental F-16 with a thrust vectoring nozzle that is more advanced that the F-119 in the f-22. The nozzle I am referring to doesn't just move up and down, and side to side. but the nozzle segments themselves actually move the exhaust air. Where as the F-22, the thrust vectoring is limited to up and down. With the F-15 ACTIVE, it has axis-symmectrical thrust vectoring as well as the Su-37. But on those two aircraft, The tailpipe duct itself moves. On the F-16 I am referring to The nozzle segments the parts that open and close are used to direct the exhaust air in just about any direction. I would like to hear if any of you know where I can find info on this aircraft or engine.

zeetoboy's right about old planes being brought back consider the big aircraft graveyards in the desert they are kept so that in a state of an emergency the usaaf can take them if they are needed and fight. If you need proof just watch clarksons extreme machines thatll tell you the truth

Subject: US vs RUSSIA
Name: firstsgt_cap
Message: Well, their economy is way better than the Soviet times and Putin just authorized a 200 Billion Dollar plan for military modernization, though it doesn't even cover the whole military.

They are way to far behind us in technology and they aren't even a threat as it is.

If you think about it China isn't a threat either, besides if we actually got into a big enough conflict with them, I would hope the President at the time will authorize Nuclear weapons, because we will have to at least knock them down in size if we want to end it quick, mind you I don't think we would need to, just that it would speed the war up.

Subject: MiG-21 - still unpleasant surprise at Cope India e
Name: michael82
Message: Draft copy of the exercise Cope India report says:
While the superb performances of IAF Sukhoi-30s were somewhat anticipated, the performance of MiG-21Bison came as a major “unpleasant surprise” to the USAF officials. It also validates the claim of the Russian officials that they are capable of successfully converting “second generation” late-model MiG-21bis fighters to “fourth generation combat platforms”. Inherently the significant positive attributes enjoyed by MiG-21s were their dog fighting ability in WVR (Within Visual Range) combat. Even the earlier models had a low corner velocity of 556 kilometers per hour and at Mach 0.5 had an instantaneous turn rate of 11.1 degrees per second. The MiG-21Bison with more powerful R-25 engines not only considerably bettered this performance but it may also be credited with “jackrabbit” acceleration, a very critical attribute in WVR combat.

Something in-line to:
http://www.amazon.com/Fighter-Performance-Practice-Unexploited-maneuverability/dp/8660210174/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1356439329&sr=1-1

Among many fourth generations attributes added to the IAF MiG-21Bison design, the incorporation of HMS (Helmet Mounted Sight) and high-off-boresight R-73RDM2 NBVR/WVR (Near Beyond Visual Range/Within Visual Range) AAMs (Air-to-Air Missiles) have turned it into a “Great Equalizer” in the WVR combat scenario. Conceptually a small number of MiG-21Bisons maintaining “radar silence” can be guided towards their aerial target by a couple of Sukhoi-30s by secure data links in accordance with MFFC (Mixed Fighter Force Concept). Upon entering into an WVR combat envelope the MiG-21Bisons armed with HMS and deadly NBVR/WVR missiles had the capability of destroying even fifth-generation fighters alike F/A-22 Raptor as assessed by high-profile Fighter Analyst Ben Lambeth of RAND Corporation. According to Lambeth “in visual combat everybody dies at the same rate.” F/A-22 also has to slow down if forced into a WVR combat scenario and loses the advantage of its super-cruise attributes. The situation further complicates if the IAF Sukhoi-30s have acquired the capability of providing target illumination for RVV-AE (AA-12 Adder) BVR missiles being launched from IAF MiG-21Bisons at extended ranges.

Subject: loadsheet
Name: joker0
Message: %MAC = ((H-arm-cg - H-arm-leading-age-of-MAC) / Length of MAC) * 100
I found this formula in airbus's weight and balance book.
ႈIs there anyone can explain about this mac formula?
Or, is there another formula?
How can I calculate %mac by weight and index?
What other constant values are needed in that formula?

This is another one from eloadsheet.net(computerized loadsheet calculator).
This is a js function.
function CalcMac(fIndex, lnWeight){
return MyRound((((fIndex-50) * 300000 / lnWeight + 1323.6 - 1258) / 327.8) * 100 );
}
If you don't know programming, plz juz point me out about values except fIndex and lnWeight.

I can calculate mac in manual system with trim chart.
But, I don't know how can I calculate without trim chart.
How can I get mac by calculating formula without trim chart?

Thanks in advance..

Message: OK, if you have played Ace Combat 5, the Unsung War, than you know the Arkbird, yeah, in the beginning of the game that huge satelite thing, that gets a gun and blows a hole in a super sub so u can rip it to shreds. cool.

what my question is.....does anybody think that NASA will develop a war satelite? We allready have spy sattelites, why not war ones, may be useful in WW3 or something. like one that can zap things with precision from space, of course theres the fact of space junk and China's anti-sattelite missiles. but this is a thought to ponder. really, it is.

Name: zeetoboy
Message: I agree with trigun.
the Eagles have a zero losses record, that shows that the Eagles kick butt. so it will be a while before the USAF fases them out even after the F-22 comes out.

this is a one sided argument as the planes that are replacing old ones are not really pushing the old ones out of the way. at least not yet, and in a period of war. i believe that all of the original planes will be brought back, as we may need all the firepower and cannon fodder we can get.
No offense to anyone.
