hmmmm . . . our boys will have a field day knocking those things out of the air.


those things are a joke. lifting bodies have been old tech for years. let me see if i got this straight, a plane with extremely limited manuverability and a ceiling of only a few hundred feet is a superior weapon? pleeeeeaaaassse trust me . . . that thing is in the right hands

Yep, that's a ground effects vehicle. The Russians have built those since the 50's. They built some as large as ships. It's about as high tech as a rock and flint. Cool clip though.

Neat video...

However, make no mistake - there is nothing "advanced," "new," or "first time" about that thing.

Flying boats (much more advanced and not to mention more stable) have been around since WWII.

We could have a lot of fun blowing that Iranian contraption to bits.

Iran is CLUELESS....I can't believe they actually threatened to "cut off the hand" of any aggressor (meaning the US) who tries to interfere with their nuclear testing.....................WTF are they thinking? IDIOTS!!!! They fought Iraq for 10yrs and nobody really won. We defeated the Iraqi army in 1 month.

They are just talking smack. Our military can put the smackdown on them so fast it will change their accent
