It's not a cost overrun, the scope of the project got expanded to include carrier operations.
Look up FUTA docking to see the cost breakdown
The carrier operations are shared jointly between several NATO countries, and would mostly be covered under the Yearly International Freedom Fund (YIFF).
That makes sense, but will that also cover the Vertically Oriented Reconnaissance Equipment (VORE) package as well?
Indeed, it's necessary in order to sync its Direct Intervention Combustible Kinetics via the Tactical Information Transmission System.
If you ask me, it's this combo of DICK and TITS that really makes FUTA special.
Im gonna post this on Nextdoor rq lmfao
I'm glad they were on budged for project BLUEWAFFLE.
Unlike project LEMONPARTY
GOATSE had such cost overruns
Blew the budget wide open.
Print these out and post them all over the DC metro
Really? I was gonna look that up anyways, guess I can make time for some UAV research
Look at that thing. It has so much stuff on it. VTOL, normal flight, antennas, and who knows what else to be strapped on it. Does everything, but none of it well. Well, except make some defense contractor a shitton of money.
That's the aerosonde and it's actually a sick piece of tech. They're competing for the tactical UAS contract right now, and VTOL is a requirement, so bolt-on packages for existing platforms are kind of an easy out. Also it's a recon platform so fly and do camera are really the only things it has to do well.
A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
