I think the correct nomenclature is Boat-thing, kinda flying, stealthish. |

I am guessing that none of these flying abortions will ever get close enough to a US Navy vessel to find out. |

Right before the BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRr of the CAWS was heard the OIC would be heard to say "what the hell is that, a lawn mower?" |

Good Point The thing is thats the ONLY ONE! they don't have a fleet of thoes missle magnets it is just one. like when the russians used to fly circular flight patterns during their Mayday parades to make it look like they had a ton of aircraft when they only had a couple. |

If that is Iran's demonstration of superior technology they are gonna be screwed, blued & tatoo'd. When the current crop of XBOX operators fly a Preditor Drone within a few miles UNSEEN they'll light up the sky with stealth flying boat confetti.

Yep, that's a fairly stealthy design.
Just not in the frequencies used by RADAR, IR, EYEBALL, or NOISE detectors. It'll hide real good when it gets splashed by an F-18; the pieces will be dispersed to far to bother hunting up. |

Saw it on the news, too. I thought I was going to piss my pants I was laughing so hard!
Looks like an EAA homebuilt with a chainsaw engine. Die you fucking towelheads! |

Iraq should teach us a lesson, when you blow the fuck out of something, leave it that way and move on! |

Your disinformation campaign won't work. The Iranians know you're just saying that to discourage them from investing more money in this awesome new weapon. No doubt this is because they have found a weakness to exploit. If Iran concentrated a good 50% of their military funding in this fine weapon system they'd be able to clear the Middle East of the evil American imperialists. |

I'd like to have one,looks like a helluva lot more fun than a Ski-Do.

The Iranians sure are bringing out the big guns in the BS department.

Originally, I thought he went to work for CBS, but I guess I was mistaken. |

That would be a Rotax 914 then, the same motor predator uses. Guess they must have found one of our crash sites. Seriously, anything with a 110hp motor can carry maybe a 1000 pound payload, thats what 3 arfcommers or 12 North Koreans? |

I think that if we have learned anything in the past 60 or so years, it is that when faced with a fanatical enemy, bent on our destruction and willing to martyr themselves in order to achieve that goal, that it is best to accommodate them. |

You forget, they came with the blueprints. |

Damn, even a Fudd could shoot that down. Time to start issuing "tactical" WingMasters.
|
|
Does anyone know if such a thing is even seaworthy? Maybe I've seen too many hydroplane crashes on smooth water but the thoughts of taking that thing up to 100 mph with any kind of chop is pretty scary without taking any fire.

Wasn't Tom WOPAT in on the R&D? |

Morons.
They need to take a look at the hermit crab thread, and assemble a team of commandos from their ranks. |
|
I just about choked on my Super Golden Crisp laughing so hard (which incidentally makes your piss smell strongly, and JUST like Super Golden Crisp, but I digress). What a piece of shit. They might as well spray paint an old Pinto in some evil, tactical looking color scheme. This is the funniest damn thread ever by the way. |

They just might need a lifeguard. |

Flying boat thingies shouldn't really come as a surprise, after all this is the same bunch that launched human wave assaults in the Iran Iraq war. They gathered large numbers of teenage boys, gave them a koran, a plastic key to get into heaven(made in asia somewhere), strapped explosives to them and had them assault Iraqi positions. So, flying boat thingies seem pretty advanced for these guys.
|
|
You're shitting me. It would be funny if it weren't so tragic. |
|
|
Yes, the human wave attacks were pretty sickening. I remember watching it on the boob tube when I was in the Army. Video had been snuck out and played on the news periodically. Seeing them just mowed down in huge numbers was pretty sad looking.
Hey, that many less we have fight soon. |

You guys are failing to see the big picture here.
Iran is obviously in the market for new "high-tech" weapons. I smell a great business opportunity here. I can't wait to get home from work and start working on this. I've already got an idea for a stealth mobile SAM site, an unmanned reconnaissance vehicle, some laser guns, and helmet mounted IR vision. I've got at least 2-3 rubbermaid tubs full of legos at home that should have everything I need in them to make this stuff. I bet they'll think the little space helmets with the translucent red flip visors will be really cool. Can you say IR technology? Not to mention the possible encryption uses. I already have an idea for that. Write in blue ink, then scribble over it in red ink. Flip down the red lego visor and now you can read the message! |

State department will never let you export this kind of High Tech to Iran. You will need some help in smuggling the technology out. Maybe you can sell it to the Indians and then they can sell it to the Iranians |
