I suppose that will allow the P-8A to use MAD while staying
at high altitude. But is the small, disposable MAD gear a
Scan Eagle would carry...

Iran's torpedo by
John C
Can Iran potentially put a nuclear weapon on the tip of that torpedo and
take out one of our carriers?
If so this poses a real threat to our ships. If the weapon is as good as
they say it is.

Amphib decks commanded by SWOs ? by
Mike Weeks
Does anyone have any knowledge (general or otherwise) as to when the
USN changed its policy regarding authorizing surface warfare officers
to command the large amphib decks (the LPHs/LHAs/LHDs) ??
I'm thinking it didn't happen until after the 1970s. TIA.

Iraq: Al-Sadr makes a move. by

They really should have gone after this guy about 2 years back when he

right near the Iranian border. The General they have on CNN is right.
The Iraq gov't has made exuses for this guy and not gone after him. I

Sidewinder engineering stoy/divide by zero by
leadfoot
I was told by one of my college math teachers that there was an engineering
calculation in the early sidewinder days that involved a division by ZERO.
No one could figure it out so they ignored it. The missile when launched
destroyed itself in flight and the fix was to place a cross member in...

LCACs and tsunami support? by
Mike Bandor
Do we have any LCACs supporting the relief efforts? I would think that the
LCACs would be suited very well to handle part of the task of getting
supplies on-shore (no need for an airstrip or port deep enough -- or still
functioning).
Just curious.

F-14 Tomcat story. by

I was told a story once by someone who worked at Grumman concerning the F-14.
It seems that one day a crew took up an F-14 and shortly after take off found
that the pitch controls (elevons?) were stuck causing the aircraft to pitch up
uncontrollably. By increasing power the crew was able to keep...

Phantom at Fallon by

While visiting the flightline at NAS Fallon in early September, I photographed
a Phantom taking off. On examining the photo today, it appears to be an F-4E

other photos. Does anyone have any thoughts on what this...
