Seems that for some reason, this guy is sticking up for the holidays . Hmmm


It sounds like he is contracting with DoD.
Maybe we will be outsourcing our little wars some day. Three dozen
modern jets could devastate most smaller 3d world countries.
Imagine what a few dozen "obsolete" F-100s and B-47s could have done
at the Bay of Pigs and the US could have plausible deniability. “””

Oh Greg. Even the f86 would be vile with modern armaments and electronics. Interesting you mentioned the f100. I think it was introduced about the same time as the f4. Which made the 100 obsolete if I recall.

Shame. They were all nasty in their day
