If this photo came out of Tehran or Moscow, the comments would be 5,000 variations of 'Potemkin Village' and 'Washing Machine Chips.'

But since it’s us, watch the experts scramble to explain why a 5th-gen fighter using literal paperweights instead of sensors is actually a genius move for pilot training. It’s not a failure, guys, it’s just 'Kinetic Ballast-based Stealth.' Total skill issue.

Literal DLC hardware
