If they conflate the two pilots they never have to prove they rescued the one in Iran when they were actually trying and failing to extract uranium stockpiles so now they can parade around the other pilot because the Iran pilot is dead pepe-silvia

This pilot should go on and represent Arizona in Congress.

That's USAmerican gusto, "getting back on the ~~horse~~ $97M fighter jet"

To be fair if you put me in one, I would also crash as many as possible

Your awful spinal problems in later life are not service related.

Bizarro Ghost of Kiev, instead of shooting down multiple Russian jets, he gets shot down multiple times but survives to fly the next day.

Char Aznable in the USAF, get shot down, keep surviving, get new models of higher tier military tech for each fuck up.

First F-15 Anti-Ace

[–] Chana@hexbear.net 7 points 13 hours ago

Is another F-15 at least shot down? Because that's an unqualified win

[–] MaxOS@hexbear.net 11 points 15 hours ago
