Targets of Opportunityblog advertising is good for you Credo"Sign on, young man, and sail with me. The stature of our homeland is no more than the measure of ourselves. Our job is to keep her free. Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose we call on the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call, Come to the sea. Come Sail with me." -- John Paul Jones "Pardon him, Theodotus; he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature" --George Bernard Shaw, "Caesar and Cleopatra" "And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music."--Friedrich Nietzsche "A kind Providence has placed in our breasts a hatred of the unjust and cruel, in order that we may preserve ourselves from cruelty and injustice. They who bear cruelty, are accomplices in it. The pretended gentleness which excludes that charitable rancour, produces an indifference which is half an approbation. They never will love where they ought to love, who do not hate where they ought to hate."--Edmund Burke “You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.”--General Sir Charles Napier "Μολὼν λαβέ" -- Leonidas "Blogito Ergo Sum" -- Neptunus Lex Amazon AssociateFor the Effort!Winnar!

With this and China’s 5thGen Stealth Fighters looking so much like ours, one has to expect that the computer networks of our defense contractors and acquisition community aren’t so secure. They must be data-mining us to no end.
Tuna,
There have been reports of terabytes of data slurped up over the internet by the dark forces. I am not surprised that both Russia and China appear to be current with our best.

Pictures of the F-22 and F-35 were released when they were still YFs. We damn near gave out the complete spec sheet on the planes too. Russia’s aircraft industry has always been good at copying the out side. The only thing in recent memory we kept a state secrete was the have blue project.
I did like the optically correct windscreen on the chase plane for the T-50.
And yet the media and many in Congress clamor for defense cuts.
Wasn’t the entire YF23 program declassified after the YF22 won the contract? I heard thats basically the source of the PAKFA?
This plane is much ado about nothing, with 4th Gen engines and avionics. It’s basically a Su-27 family bird with a stealthy-looking candy coating.
