    Hey people. I'm one of those guys brought over from the WT. I try not to piss too many people off when discussing something, but I AM a teenager, so if I get way out of bounds during a heated discussion, nothing intentional, and I didn't mean what I said about your mom/dad/wife/bro/sis/aunt/uncle/cat/dog/hamster/gerbil/car.

    Thought you guys would get a big laugh out of that!!!!

    If all you get is 1000 aircraft you are a third rate airforce IMHO. To be truly world dominating and entirely capable of devastation on a massive basis I would like the following:
    Airforce:

    200 B-2 Bombers for strategic attacks
    1500 B-52 bombers for carpet bombing cities and some strategic attacks.

    3000 F/A-22A's These will provide for air superiority, escort duty for the big boys and ground forces support, as in strikes. You will update these craft with USN type electronics so each aircraft is capable of 'Wild Weasel" duties.

    700 hundred tankers to refuel all those birds.

    3000 A-10 Warthogs Anti Armor/Ground support

    You may think that is a lot of aircraft but you also have to think of wear and tear for a full war and the losses incurred due to parts failure and enemy fire. Also, the F/A-22 will be performing duties of the F-117A, F-15, F-15E, F-16 (All versions and mission variations) and we have a large number of those aircraft types. Why use second class aircraft when you can choose the best. To carpet/fire bomb a city effectively, you need large numbers of aircraft, those aircraft need escorts.

    Navy

    1200 F-14D/F-21 (New build only!)

    These aircraft will perform all Ground Attack/Strike duties performed by the A-6 and all F-18 variations. They will also be used for long range CAP/Interdiction duties. The number may seem high, but again you need spares for wear and tear for a full war and the losses incurred due to parts failure and enemy fire. These aircraft can be supplemented with F-18E/F once they are up to speed with new (much) higher powered engines. Until then no SH!!!!!!

    You might also want to make an F-14 tanker version to keep your parts commonality as large as possible. With the Tanker version you add another 150 aircraft on top of what is listed.

    Bottom Line

    With this combination Airforce/Naval Air combat force you could pretty much take on the world and devastate it in a couple of years. I don't mean knock out things, I mean WWII levels of Devastation as in Japanese cities that were firebombed and leveled. You would of course need a ground force of equally large proportions (25-30 Divisions) to conquer those who don't surrender outright during the early bombing phase....... I am of course talking about taking on the EU, Russians and Red Chinese at the same time, along with kicking a little Arab booty while we are at it.......

    :S :ph34r

    So do you think I have enough to win WWIII?

    Do the terms "Slave Labor" and "Workers Union" mean anything to you?
