Latest pre-defence review rumour:
UK F-35 procurement to be capped at 70 aircraft.RAF wants to prioritise Tempest fighter.
@Justin_Br0nk says Tempest about supporting UK aerospace industry and likely to be behind what the US is producing by then.

@waschbaerella oh what a fun thread!!
lemme introduce my oc Alex, who's a criminal based in the gta5 universe :D
he's probably proudest of his skill in flying various aircraft and his knowledge in aeronautics, but he's secretly insecure about how his eyes look (he masks this behind humor LOL)

21 August 1955. First flight of the photographic-reconnaissance version Grumman F9F-8P Cougar. US carrier-based fighter aircraft.
The Netherlands (traditionally neutral) was quickly overwhelmed by the German advance in 1940 🇳🇱
Their air force was largely made up of indigenous aircraft types, like the twin Fokker TV (designed as an "aerial cruiser") and Fokker D.XXI fighters, a poor adversary for the Me 109.
@Fantasticaltwts Giant azhdarchids were seriously huge - giraffe-sized animals with wingspans comparable to small aircraft. Baby sauropods were pretty small - maybe a metre long, at most?
Recommend the Barnett Freedman show @PallantGallery - fascinating survey of his career, esp when he was a war artist - this wonderful 1942 work Personnel of an Aircraft Factory (Parnall, at Yate, nr Bristol).
Good Morning Everyone.
Our first four today are courtesy of Eric Ravilious (1903-42) He was a Wood Engraver ,Painter, Designer and Book Illustrator.
A favourite of mine and a very important artist. Sadly died when as a war artist the aircraft he was in was lost off Iceland
For @Adm_Fujibayashi, it's aircraft carrier Intrepid, on the verge of suffering critical damage from uh... "internal explosions"

The M.C 202 Folgore! A sleek and beautiful Italian fighter aircraft which would have reached parity with the Bf109 if it weren't for her notoriously unreliable Breda armament. There will be more Italians in the future. #gijinka #兵器擬人化 #WarThunder #NobodyArtistsClub
@Twopaw1 @NonbinarySaru I believe that was an idea posited by Gene Roddenberry and locked into cannon with Mike Okuda adding it to the writers tech manual.
The probable reason for Gene suggesting it was that in the early scripts for #startrek the Enterprise is named for the aircraft carrier Yorktown.

7 August 1951. Douglas Aircraft Company test pilot William Barton Bridgeman flew the U.S. Navy/NACA/Douglas D-558-2 Skyrocket to a record speed of Mach 1.88 at Muroc Dry Lake (later Edwards Air Force Base) in the high desert of southern California.
