A lot of the information surrounding hypersonic missiles is just hype, but I did want to at least note this.

F-117
Even though they are officially retired, apparently several F-117s are still flying , being used as aggressor aircraft out at Nellis. Story here.

Like a scene from the new Top Gun movie
I love this story so much. Can you imagine being one of the Iranian pilots? You’d need to go home and change your flight suit.

A-4
I really like the A-4. It is a cool little hot rod of an aircraft. I particularly like it in its aggressor role. I’ve always wanted to do the aggressor that had a MiG-17 silhouette painted on it. That means I will need this.

Thank you
One of the real needs in 72nd scale aircraft was for a new kit of the C-130 family. Thanks to Zvezda, we are apparently going to get one in 2020. Details are sketchy, but this is a hopeful development.

More UFO stuff
OK, I really don’t want this website to turn into a poor man’s MUFON website. However, much is being written lately about UFOs, particularly as it relates to military encounters. This article speculates as to why the public might not be told all that is known by the government.

Well, this is interesting
A talk by the USAF Chief of Staff talking about having the F-22 and F-35 communicate and share information with the X-37B. Of course, as the article notes, this raises the ever-present question of exactly what the X-37B does and what sort of sensors it has that could share useful information with the fighters. Something fascinating is going on with thee X-37B. I just hope that one day we know what it is.
