You went there once, you left after the Marocans refused to leave. Then you asked them to leave for days. You went back after having negotiated a deal.

Can't make it any simpler than that.

No we didn't. We stayed there indefinitely to make sure they didn't come back. We also took the time to take the Moroccan soldiers there and send them back to Morocco. Talk about nice.

It doesn't have to. And besides why should we? You are so far away. I think those Italians are the ones you should worry about with their AMXs.

And besides we attack France, we only need one aircraft. That is all France will need to surrender.

Alas, platforms are becoming less and less relevant in aerial combat.


To some degree yes, but we're talking about F-5s so they have to be more than 20 years old given that Northrop started making F-20s in the 80s.

There is a lot more to aerial combat than simply numbers and types of aircraft, including serviceability, how up to date the missiles are and how good the ground control and radar systems are. Neither Greece nor Turkey scores too well on any of these.

Actually it doesn't matter anyway because the Greek forces are not designed to fight. If Greece goes to war with someone the plan is for their secret weapon, codename Pattycakes, to bore the opposition into surrender.

Yeah I heard that Turkey is slightly better but both are still poor.

Spain does a good job with serviceability and radar systems but we got fewer numbers.

You'll do a name change? While your point about Albanian majority is very accurate , I disbelieve it will lead to Greece changing her name.

I heard something a while ago about Turkey's air force. This was that the U.S. was transferring them some Apache helicopters with top-of-the-line computer equipment, but only 95% of the programming codes.

It made me wonder: What is the other five per cent for? I decided that it's probably activated by Echelon or some such and shuts off the weapons or the engine.

If I were the turks, I'd take out the computers and replace them.

Nonetheless, this is an expensive method of pigeon populaiton control. Suprising he survived at that low altitude!!

So would I, but Turkey's not well-known for its computers. At least not to me.

Am I correct in saying that Sony didnt ship PS2's (the consoles not the mice) to North Korea for fear the chips could be used in cruise missiles? If I want to make a long range weapon, I wont use a MIPS processor!!!

My point is that there is surely plenty of low-grade consumer available tech that would be good for military use. Remember that the computer that took men to the moon was the size of my dining room and outperformed by my digital alarm clock. Its even outperformed by my P4!!!
