100% agreed on all points. Evading the Phoenix on its terminal guidance near max range should be a viable strategy for avoiding it due to the bleed of kinetic energy. Though like the HARM (which an F-16 Wild Weasel pilot _hated_ due to the

Good point about the B-2. Does the Navy even perform Wild Weasel? That's usually the F-16's job and we can only "assume" that it was out of range of any USAF or collation airbase. Of course, the country in question would

Of course this is a hypothetical now that we've seen how "well kept" Russian equipment is, but the R-37M will technically reach out and touch American aircraft long before the AMRAAM is in range. Gotta wait for the AIM-260.

Last air-to-air cannon kill I'm aware of was an F-16 vs. OV-10 in Venezuela in 1992. You can watch the kill at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDASW6X0XoU . If you look closely at the moment of shoot down, you'll s

It's an airshow maneuver. Speed is life. USAF (and presumably other AF's) send out 2 to 4 ship (or if we look at Desert Storm, over 70 ships). If you "stall" or perform this maneuver, whomever is behind you might oversho

I've actually created this setup (in order to ditch Okta as it is far more expensive than AAD P1 if you want MFA). You federate AAD and Okta. Sign in to Okta and it's smooth sailing into AAD-based resources like M365. Okta puts on

Eating out alone really hurts. It makes you feel that much more _alone_ because nearly everyone else is with their SO, a party, friend, etc. Bringing a phone is only a distraction to get through waiting for the meal to arrive. I dislike it

Lamictal is not a benzo and must be used consistently (daily) to prevent SJS as it requires titration. Generally, those who need it (epileptic patients or those with bipolar disorder) must use it for the duration of their life.
