    RSI Scorpius - New heavy fighter!

    Last projection I've seen for the Polaris hangar is 29m long, 20 meters wide, 8 meters high. You might squeeze the Scorpios in diagonally, but not the Vanguard. Not even close. But of course as vadahar notes, we still don't know what size that hangar will turn out to be.

    RSI Scorpius - New heavy fighter!

    1 meter too long to fit in the Polaris hangar bay, and all small components just talked me out of it. If I can't fit it into a Polaris, I'll stick with the Sentinal which has 3X the shields, twice the missiles, stealth, EMP and 6km weapons range. Sure is pretty though.

    See, he knows. Kirk gets all the hot chicks. Welcome young pup. We old men started with Pong.

    RSI Scorpius - New heavy fighter!

    Yeah. I doubt anyone is going to fly this with a second person. Its role is severely restrained with all S1 components, but it packs such a hard punch that unless is handles like a garbage scow, I think it's going to be everyone's first choice of short range escort. I can imagine flying half...

    Wow. Unless it turns crazy slow everyone is going to want one of these, granted the pilot can take control of the turret.

    They stated they saw it descend, and that there was no impact. These guys are all trained to know what a meteor looks like. They're saying this is not that.

    Wth did I just watch?

    I'm sure if he had a glowing barrel, inserted a fresh mag and walked away, he would have cooked off some rounds. Instead he was quick enough they didn't go, which is good for him. That plastic face shield would not have been sufficient had one or more gone boom in the mag. Not an especially...

    RSI Scorpius - New heavy fighter!

    With the exception of laser cannons, which always have longer range; most S2 and S3 guns are within 10% range of each other. So 10% plus or minus 2,000 meter range. Though that can be important, you'd need to be a great pilot to exploit the difference. The real outranging situation appears...

    Unidentified Aerial Phenomena

    I think you should watch the vid, then try to explain: radar tracks in excess of 13,000 mph, 6-700 gee turns, travel through air, water and possibly space, and has no obvious means of propulsion or surface controls, by craft that were observed every day for two years by USN combat pilots.

    Unidentified Aerial Phenomena

    Your theory does not explain targets locked on air to air radar by US Navy combat pilots, that travel in excess of 16,000 miles per hour, pull aerial maneuvers that should generate forces large enough to destroy all known materials, and are observed every day for over three months. You should...

    Agreed. Woodward's theory does not explain things simply disappearing. The work I'm involved with right now is extra-dimensional. I would tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.

    Wth did I just watch?

    The flaming forend is a feature, not a bug. When the zombie hordes are not deterred by the bullets, open flames give them pause.

    Unidentified Aerial Phenomena

    I worked with Woodward for 8 years and left the work about 8 years ago. He still has NASA funding, but there are sufficient reasons to think he's off track for me to stay involved. Instead I'm working with another group, the physics of which I cannot discuss, but rest assured, there are...

    Unidentified Aerial Phenomena

    It may be inter-dimensional, but there are other possible explanations. For instance, if the Mach Effect theory of Dr. James F. Woodward is correct, then it is possible to disconnect a local body like a craft from the universe's gravinertial field that gives matter its mass. Matter which is so...

    Unidentified Aerial Phenomena

    it's not weather balloons. I was a true skeptic concerning UAPs until a friend who is a senior officer at CIA challenged me to use my skills as a trained philosopher to vet the evidence. Thus challenged I did a careful study, and I can tell you, NO ONE who does a careful study thinks these are...

    RSI Scorpius - New heavy fighter!

    Great analysis. I'm going to guess at about $300, since that is just past the Vanguards. I don't think there is going to be room or life support for a second person. I'm guessing the remote turret has its own AI when rear facing. Probably one bed and maybe a Galley, but I don't see room for...

    RSI Scorpius - New heavy fighter!

    I usually like this guy's analysis but i think he's got this all wrong. First off, if this had 8 S3 guns it would NOT be in line with other heavy fighters. It would be the ruling DPS champion of the game, with TWICE the firepower of the Sabre. That's not what this is. Second, the model he...

    Crypto discussion

    I don't think crypto is a scam because of what Musk is doing. I think it's a scam because it is run by someone other than a sovereign, who has no right to value the goods and services of people. No one has ever started their own currency brand for any reason other than to make money, except...
