    Amazing how quick they can work when they’re building aircraft that do one thing well

    This is an F-35 hate account. F-22 gang

      I don’t know… Can it hover in place and operate without sound like the recent triangular UAP sightings?

      Edit: For any skeptics who haven’t truly and honestly evaluated the evidence for the existence of UAP, I strongly encourage you to read my post here.

        Ever drive through a city with the airport near the highway and see the airplanes approaching to land? They look like they are hovering there.

          Yeah. And I used to live near Eglin AFB. That’s not what was witnessed and not what I was describing.

          I edited my comment above with this link in which I have compiled significant evidence supporting the existence of UAP, as in anomalous crafts.

          It’s not an irrational, wild belief. It’s based in reality and from admissions from government/military officials and declassified and leaked records. There’s hard data in the form of video, expert eye-witness accounts, and radar data that all corroborate one another in some events. Read the section on the Nimitz Event that I have written.

          I used to discount this as a bogus fringe topic, and admittedly I joke that I’ve become Dale Gribble (RIP Johnny Hardwick…). But the reality is that there is validity to the existence of anomalous crafts that represent breakthrough/disruptive technology.

        Sigh. Ok. Why are they ALWAYS seem to fit human-sized pilots? Look at our Earthly animals. There’s ants to blue whales. Why are the ayyliums ALWAYS in fuckable sizes, not long-horses gerraffes sized? Oooooooo. HOVERING!!! Truly an unobtainable mode of flight beyond the ken of Humans which only the ayylmaoians can do. Whoah!!!
