I remember the Rafales debuting, reading on them, and the plane just seemed very nice. It was made here, in the EU, which was a plus.

The Eurofighter Typhoon was also really cool.

It’s a functional plane. Why the distaste?

Things like these are getting ridiculous and the most unreasonable of it all is that most people do not consider this as predatory and invasive behaviour from manufacturers.

I like my appliances dumb. Don’t try to sell me a smart TV, a smart fridge or a smart anything. It does not need to connect to the internet. It needs to do one specific task and one only. I don’t need my fridge to order groceries.

As much as I enjoy the spectacular sound of the piston engines, I can not stress enough that I am fairly concerned modern anti-aircraft measures would be overpowering for these machines.

Nonetheless, this airplane exists and is a thing.

That picture is the closest representation of what hellfire must be without entering nuclear territory. For sheer display of power, that is that, in my opinion.

Level that place.

Wouldn’t eat it even if paid to do it.

I found this in the wild, at an online shopping site.

Good point!

That is pure laziness of whoever is responsible for puting the bags there.

Either there is a support bracket for two separate bags on the underside if that lid or the trash bin originally had two separate buckets that were taken away.
