An interesting bit of trivia I notived the other day when I was watching the new version of 'War of the Worlds':
I'm pretty sure an A-10 can be seen flying in overhead when Ray (Tom Cruise) tries to talk his son Robbie out of joining up with a bunch of US Army and Marine personel who are fighting a pitched battle with a bunch of Alien Tripods over the hill. You also catch a glimpse of an F-22 and two F-16s, and three Stike Eagles can be seen shooting a few missiles at the Tripods once they get over the hill.
I guess Mavericks werent designed with 100m tall Alien War Machines in mind.
