It just has to be comforting to fly into battle, and be shot at, while piloting an inherently unstable aircraft, built of parts made by the lowest bidder, controlled by microchips, while doing violent maneuvers which exceed the human bodies ability to survive and remain mentally functional...

It is comforting, at least, to know the guys who fly the B-52s actually fly them, and other than auto pilot, no software can fly the beasts. Unfortunately, the newer fighters are flown by digits, with minor inputs allowed by the human. (but only until they are completely robotic) Curley

[MBZ] B-52. was: Asiana

The B-52 has been in active service with the USAF since 1955. As of 2012, 58 remain in service with nine in reserve. The bombers flew under the Strategic Air Command (SAC) until it was inactivated in 1992 and its aircraft absorbed into the Air Combat Command (ACC); in 2010 all B-52

Re: [MBZ] B-52. was: Asiana

The B-52 serves the role of big and slow strategic bomber. This is an obsolete role, since strategic bombing became a moot point when the ICBM became operational in the late 50's. The need for a high bomb load aircraft didn't go away, so we are stuck with truly ancient equipment because
