re: Vid of Kuwaitis approaching downed US F-15 pilot, offering help

I have known pilots who have, they don't recommend the experience.
Spinal issues tend to be the result.

re: U.S. Races to Accomplish Iran Mission Before Munitions Run Out

Others have raised the issue as well and not just for interceptors....
and given the complexity of today's weapons, spinning up production isn't quick and easy.

“Costing approximately $35,000 per platform, LUCAS is a low-cost, scalable system that provides cutting-edge capabilities at a fraction of the cost of traditional long-range U.S. systems that can deliver similar effects,” Navy Capt. Tim Hawkins, a CENTCOM spokesperson, told TWZ back in December. “The drone system has an extensive range and the ability to operate beyond line of sight, providing significant capability across CENTCOM’s vast operating area.”

re: Update: War in Iran thread
Posted by TigersnJeeps on 2/27/26 at 12:49 pm to VolInBavaria
The War Zone has a piece on possible implications/complications of a US airstrike on Iran.
Items such as 1) what is the goal of the strikes, 2) Israeli involvement, 3) Iran's response through all it's weapons and agents, 4) the shortage of US and Israeli defensive weapons (eg Patriot missiles).
Good read IMO.
They tend to be skeptical of Trump and many commenters are hostile due to his actions (or lack) wrt Ukraine/Russia.

So they have been 1) exposed to the leftwing propoganda longer and 2) often have had to agree with it to receive their degrees - esp the humanities.

you must live a miserable life...
So do you want boomer's to keep working so they continually pay into the systems?
Or do you want them to retire so younger workers can advance?
Or just die?
I suspect the latter...

the YT channel "Bonehead Truckers" has shown the addresses of many of these "companies" and it is an apartment.

We did a 2 week driving tour on the Ring Road a few years ago. Booked through Iceland Tours. Did it with another couple and had a great time; this was during the month of June.
Below is the list of "mid-level" hotels we stayed at. Most were fairly small hotels but were comfortable and easy to find.
Some had restaurants, some included breakfast, some just had a bar.
I don't have the prices.
Hope this helps
