I like how bombs can destroy a plane flying 300 feet above them but not a tank next to them.

[@FireWarrior2013]

I know it's SO annoying!

[@corinoliver5341]

because maybe tanks have solid steel armor and planes are made from wood ,fabric or super thin metal?

[@ClonesDream]

Corin Oliver Wood? Alright, early Ruskie planes were made of wood. But fabric? Why? What makes you think fabric makes a good plane?

[@GrasshopperKelly]

Britain: "We need to design an entirely dedicated Carrier born aircraft, rather than convert existing aircraft to the carrier role." "What role or requirements for this new weapon Sir?" "Multi-role! We need it to be so cheap and easy to maintain, we just produce one for each role. We'll be able to convert an entire carrier's compliment to anti shipping, and then within a few minutes after returning, hand them back over to air supremacy!" *goes on to produce an aircraft with so many mission purposes, it can't even be considered good at flying* US: "We need a new multi-role aircraft..." something to replace the A-10 and the F22." "Here's the F35!" "Cool, let's replace everything with it! It's not like such widely purposed multi-role aircraft have been bad..." (On a side note, the F35 does what it's designed to do, well enough. It does it as well as it was intended to. Plus yes, the Yankees spent years and generations of aircraft knowledge avoiding pervious multirole issues. The F-35 cannot do the roll of long overhead time heavy ordinance capacity ground attack. It doesn't have the payload size. But most modern turboprop ground attackers can do the exact same roll just not maintain as much speed in a high G turn. Big woop... Although the F-35 could do an infinitely better job at ground attacking at nigh than the A-10 before the A-10C upgrades. The A-10 simply have zero nigh time operations equipment.)

[@patrickgriffitt6551]

Well the Mosquito did multi-role quite well. I am American and not a fan of F-35.

[@GrasshopperKelly]

@@patrickgriffitt6551 It was more for the joke :P There's been dozens of multirole designs aviation has looked back on when designing aircraft in the last 30 years. The F-35 cannot perform the A-10's publically perceived roll, because it was not designed with that in mind. At all... Probably Because the A-10 has performed lass than 20% of US ground attack missions in the past 20 years when it has, it's almost exclusively used dumb, or guided ordinance. The gun is no where near as effective as people have given it the reputation for. Even though I agree with the cool factor. I don't "love" the F-35 either. But I have no argument for why it's not one of the US's most successful aircraft, and as a result likely one of the best aircraft designed to date. The Rafael was considered epic, because of its cost effectiveness. The F-35 sells for cheaper... The F-35 doesnt have a Gau 30mm. No, because gun based ground attackers have always been over-hyped. Almost every single pilot in WW2 over claimed ground kills. Meanwhile the skyraider was a monster in the sky, purely because of ordinance capacity. The A-10 is only still in use, because of ordinance capacity. Not the gun. The USAF looked at the Super Tucano and PC-7 as potential candidates, to supplement the other aircraft in the USAF in that ordinance capacity role. As far as I'm aware, that's been dropped now (I can say I "know" why. It could be because Congress forced they to use money on extending the A-10 service life again). The Irish Air corps use PC-9's. Basically slightly stripped down PC-7's intended as trainers. They're exclusively used as training aircraft here for our 5 or 6 pilots. We've more aircraft than certified PC-7 pilots... (We don't pay our defence force staff enough, it's embarassing). But the PC-7 can still also take ordinance pylons, and the PC-9 can perform night operations. So... The Tucano and Pilatus both do exactly what Congress said the USAF needs the A-10 for. But at a fraction the running cost.
