Revolutionary CTAI Weapon System to start qualification

 

"... The 40mm CTCA system's ease of use, ability to fire accurately on the move, versatility and much-increased punch will give a major firepower boost to the British and French Armies.

 

The 40mm high explosive round has more than three times the explosive power of the 30mm Rarden currently fitted to Warrior and the Scimitar Vehicle which Scout will replace, while its armour-piercing projectile will penetrate more than 140mm of steel armour..."

lol, one SU-33 makes almost crash on landing (cobra style 1m above deck), the other fullburn brakes on hehehe, I guess in any other airforce they would be grounded in anyway.
I would say, grounded, pending investigation of the incident. Landing on a such a small deck is a process that involves many elements with many assumptions. If pilot failed to follow procedures, I am sure he suffered consequences. However, if things out of his control happened, and he saved the airplane and carrier deck by risking his life, he may be awarded a medal. We just don't know what happened.

To whom it may concern,

I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

Thank you for you patience.

 

 

Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

Oh sorry. Must have overseen it.

 

I cancel watching the pages that are overloaded with full size pictures.

It may have been on one of those.

 

Thanks for replying :)

Those boom operators in KC-135 are real jerks sometimes, I've seen few Falcons completely torn by booms.

 

But if you read that thread a while back about the boom operator he said it was the way the A-10 pilots where trained and the limited visibilty that caused all those dents.

To BUILD One is Something.

But to FLYis EVERYTHING.
