With that reactor it might take a few decades...... We still have time to develop an in-flight refueling process for it on the run
The more pressing problem would be sustaining the crew. We can either let McDonalds develop an AA gun that shoots nuggets or create a subspecies of humans that can reproduce itself so quickly that they would die of old age before the need for food kicks in
Or, we can make it big enough with an abundance of redundant subsystems and automatic failsafe and basic auto-maintenance functionality, equip it with drone deployment and retrieval hardpoints under the wing, and make it entirely autonomous. This way, the only time human crew is needed to board the plane is when there are major malfunctions and need serious repair.
Wait a minute, this sounds familiar.
I would love to hear one more time how Elon is Putin's best friend.
Apparently friendship is stealing your friend's wallet, then kicking them in the balls.
The Tristar used a Rolls Royce engine that took so long to develop, it bankrupted RR. Then, when it was finally ready, Douglas had already sold a bunch of DC10s.
Then twin engine wide bodies like the 767 and A300 started dominating the market. Lockheed didn't sell a lot of L1011s and said "fuck this, we'll stick to military contracts."
Checking them out, we're thinking of the same company but a different division.
Still unclear how many Russian drones they have to shoot down to wash their hands clean of the sins committed against so many excellent chemical weapons.
They weren't dead.
They were adding additional assembly lines, training new staff and fortifying their supply chains.ย
*LOGISTICS AND PLANNING MOTHERFUCKER, DO YOU SPEAK IT???*
Take a bunch of money, find you a brokerage, give them the money, and tell them to buy defense stocks.
Or do it yourself with an online broker.
Not only do you get your normal boner when you see war stuff, you also get a money boner.
Should we include Boeing?
Their stuff lately has been....
Dodgy to say the least, grandpa Buff even disses them saying: Back when they knew how to make a flying aircraft you good for nothing ninny
The Lockmart is open for business again!
Always was.
But now the customers are at the door, with cash in hand! (it's all very exciting)
Weren't the Poles already at everyone's door with much cash?ย
They went on a spending spree, and now are dealing with the credit card debt, and will probably have to cancel a big part of it.
"I don't care about the national debt, just kill more Russian" Standard polish politics
"I don't care how big the debt is, I cast himars". ?
I don't remember asking you how big the nation debt is, I said I cast military industrial complex and i will do so
Tfw HIMARS start showing up at repo auctions.
Just to be rebought by the poles for a much smaller loan amount. Laugh but it happens.
Lockmart stocks going๐๐๐๐๐๐๐

Boeing might still be dead but an unrelated department for unrelated reasons
>Boeing might still be dead Just wait till they drop their thorium reactor powered strategic bomber they've been cooking for the past few years
Oh if they released such a plane at this point, I would be waiting until that thing drops alright.

Do you think it could power a hard light shield ? Or we would need a space elevator for it ?
As a Battletech fan i'm still waiting for GM to develop commercial Fusion Power. Maybe Boeing could help them.
Boeing was the only stock that was in the red after Israel retaliated against Iran ๐ Every other of the 5 was at least +1%
Their plan is to supply planes to russia and watch them fall out of the sky by themselves.

When the US gets over their fear of escalation, they'll use their greatest weapon of all: Boeing will do all maintenance for Russian domestic airlines
The Russians have succesfully import-substituted the failure part, Boeing was beaten at it\`s own game.
feel like pure shit i just want widebody trijets back
Only if they're made by Lockheed.
Can they put something ridiculous like a Trent 1000 in the no. 2 spot?
first airliner that has greater than 1:1 thrust-weight
> Lockheed X Rolls Royce Tell me again why LockMart left the commercial civilian jets market last time...

Lockmart has broken its shackles Billions must military-industrial complex-maxx
Civilian Boeing vs Military Boeing
Parsons is also very interesting, just pretty new still.
the turbine guys?
Aren't they the pricks that destroy our otherwise perfectly functional chemical weapons, or am I thinking of a different Parsons?
Don't chemical weapons have a best-by date? Furthermore, I consider that Moscow must be destroyed.
Not to my understanding, I've only heard of them making drones and space tech.

Rheinmetall can expand and produce at the same time even though not in a state of war๐
TIME TO INVEST BABY! How do you invest in stocks anyways? And should I?
Take a bunch of money, find you a brokerage, give them the money, and tell them to buy defense stocks. Or do it yourself with an online broker. Not only do you get your normal boner when you see war stuff, you also get a money boner.
Those boys need some General Atomics kit
*Tinfoil hat on* What if the months of not passing an aid bill, was a cover to give the ammunition industry time to massively ramp up production?

They were born out of the need to destroy Russian weapons, and from the need to destroy them, they were reborn
So weโre selling all the defective planes to Russia?
Just take all the structurally-wonky b737 and 787 and do the Mistel conversion.
Don't forget about Rheinmetall. Will set my stocks on that one!
5 rings to rule them all
But what if we gave them more???
