ALL RIGHT!!! Raptor leads the way!

You guys are just hilarious. I'll take you BOTH down with Meteors BVR. And then you get picked up by the lovely Valkyrians and take the short trip to pilot Vallhalla. Where you can sim against each other 24/7.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but the Valks are the "angels" and not the godess. That would be Frija, right? Sorry, I really can't remember that history lesson... And the soul collector would be Hades, right? Or was that Baldur???
T

Hmmm i see another soul that will be taken to Valhala, and that is a Raptor... my friend i'm not sure if your  Meteor can catch me at 70.000 ft 3.2 Mach, but  i can supercruise at 3.2 while i doubt if you can travel more that 150 miles at 1.7...so you must be very lucky to see and catch me......i think you will be like a cheetah...fast enough for short periods, then no fuel, no duel....

Hades is a Greek God.  About Valkyries......check this

"The Valkyrie is, in the oldest strata of belief, a corpse goddess, represented by the carrion-eating raven. The name in Old Norse, valkyrja, means literally, "chooser of the slain." The Valkyrie is related to the Celtic warrior-goddess, the Morrigan, who likewise may assume the form of the raven."

I'm not sure you have many stand-off capability weapons... B-70. You go ahead and sit there the whole day while i tussle with your escort. Oh, GT. I really REALLY never respected the Foxbat. So i'll respect the pilot and stay relaxed but not too relaxed and gun you down.

Ok. Norse god. So I think it should be somebody else. Hang on. I need my history book.

You know modern technology performs miracles...it wouldn't be difficult to equip a huge bomber with some missiles......and a small a-a radar....and then...... beware of the big white bird...After all blackbird was also unarmed but nothing ever brought it down....how could a Raptor do it?

i have to tell you that neither 2 Eagle pilots respected that Iraqi Foxbat who managed to escape from them, despite the existence of an E-3 Sentry AWACS....and not only it got away (retreat u might say) but send them a present (some tree sized things that Russian think they are missiles).......Luckily, those fireworks didn't work, after all they were designed to shoot down the B-70, not a maneuvrable fighter, but can u imagine an AMRAAMski instead of them?

Hhmm...ok...but me in the mighty F-15 would have that MiG-25 dead...that is, if it doesn't blow itself up first    ::)
And about the XB-70...I'm not sure most likely absolutely not. However if I caught you before you took off or before you reached my service cieling  >:D
Also the F-22. We would mangle for a bit and the F-22 would be lucky to fight against the legendary F-15 Eagle. It would be more pilot skill I guesse instead of the planes although the F-22 would have a slight advantage.

But i thought, according to the US, that the Raptor was the best plane in the world?

So it should win effortless right

Oh and now I remember why I left the forum for a while.

You should not have to feel this way Cobra, nobody does.  Im sorry if any member have mistreated you.  :-[

To all of you out there:
If there is any problems, dont trashtalk each other on the forum. Take it up with the webmaster or any of the moderators. There is not much we can actually do, but we will always support our members and listen to the problems.
I am not here to babysit! ( Can only speak on my behalf).

Ok, heated arguments sometimes get out of control. Understandable. Just remember that we are all here because of our love for military jets,  not political, religous or sexualpreferences.

If you want to argue about politics, im pretty sure there are other forums where you can get that chance to get these oppinions out. I demand that the members respect each other at least in their posts on this forum.

Topic closed.

Like Viggen said, don't trashtalk here and argue somewhere else about politics, for example on the general discussion board or on another website if you can't keep it nice and within reason.

I am not here to babysit either, by the way.
