US planes falling out the sky…

Debates


In Kuweit, US fighter jets have been falling out the sky.

Cuts in maintenance?
God’s intervention?
Are they American planes?
A secret weapon…

Ohhhhh… who knows!
Well, and who bloody cares. If their planes are like their cars, they’re crap.

None I presume. It was you who asked the question (and specifically on the roads, not about the flying over Kuwait).

Quite a few.

Hell, I even witnessed a Messerschmitt 109 flying here 3 years ago.

If you go to Eastern Germany and Poland and what-not there’s loads of old European cars driving about.

Not so many cadillacs though…

Not very "friendly" of them.

Given the fact of US and Israeli Air supremacy in the region, it's odd the Kuwaitis would think they were Iranian combat aircraft.

Are the crews safe?
