Each era of air combat has unique advancements, hazards, tactics, and heroes.

I honestly don't understand how someone could give a shit about old designs. They should all be scrapped or tossed in a boneyard and used as recycling. The purpose of a war plane is to fight wars, once it ceases to be good at this what is the purpose of keeping one around except pure bullshit sentimentality.

>>30238099
It doesn't have to be explained to me, I'm just beyond that mentality. The mind of a good military thinker is in the future not the past. I like things like software integration, stealth capability, and thrust vectoring, things that actually improve the survivability of a design, things which old planes clearly lack.

>>30238243
You're really one dumb mother-fucker aren't you, all uppity and shit on your 'enlightened' high horse.

Your expensive 'modern' good for nothing piece of shit will NEVER defeat good old practical design. A fucking cessna is able to kill more, do more and survive a lot longer than your worthless meme-garbage with thrust vectoring shit.

A FUCKING CESSNA IS MORE RELEVANT ON THE MODERN BATTLEFIELD THAN ANY BULLSHIT WITH THRUST VECTORING

Can you not understand why someone might appreciate an older design? If someone builds an M16A1 clone do you just get completely bemused as to why they would want a gun that doesn't have a collapsible stock and any modern attachment points?

Mach 2 in 1955.

The golden age of British aviation is over ; ;7

I work on f-18s which are semi old.
Ive since learned to fucking hate aircraft.

Do you even know what irony means?

and the answer is yes. classic 50's and 60's jets are some of the most beautiful machines ever created.

If by modern you mean goat fuckers, yes. However, things can change quickly. I hope you don't think a Cessna can beat an F22, or a Stinger.

The more gadgets something has on it the shittier it becomes, because it's reliant on infrastructure that won't be there during war.
Now, a cessna that's ACTUALLY serviceable by single induviduals, that's something everyone could vouch for.

>>30240646
Best thing about those are their size.
You do not get it until you walk by one at an airfield (show or whatever).
