F-52 sale to Norway
 

U.S. President, Donald J. Trump announces the sale to Norway in November of F-35 and also, F-52 fighter jets.

I have friends teaching on the F-35 program there in Norway. They are somewhat surprised by the President of the U.S. announcing the F-52 program which is apparently so deep cover, that it is only known to gamers on Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.

Could this be the first steps in the U.S. D.o.D.'s cyber airforce? We may be on the cusp of observing the first cyber arms race, where imaginary weapon systems result in real world systems development to counter the F-52 etc...

Maybe. Maybe this is fake news, including a fake Prez speech. Maybe, you be the judge.

Given that UFO's are gaining some prominence at this time, one wonders why an intelligent life form would waste their dilithium crystals in looking in on the 3rd rock, we apparently may be sentient but we do not appear to have any intelligent lifeforms here. I do hear that the High Chief of Nambia, His Radiance Sir Robert Z. Covfefe is delighted with the offer of F-52's for his nascent nation. It will replace his MiG-21PF fleet which is now a sole instructional airframe through attrition.

Await images of the F-52 avidly. I suspect it is going to be known as the ultimate stealth fighter, so images may be along time coming.

:ugh:

F-52 is a highly classified derivative of the B-52 featuring thrust vectoring of all 8 engines to achieve 9g capabilities. I believe a Daily Mail journalist should write an article on this.

Leftcoaster, I believe you are absolutely right!

The USAF, USN, Army and Coast Guard are truly blessed by their Confuser in Chief. A privilege to have such a genius in charge. Who knows words, big words. Words like:

"Stable"
"Genius"
"No collusion!"
"sloppy Steve"
"Crooked Hillary"
"No collusion!"
"No collusion!"
"No collusion!"
"Rocket Man"
"Little Rocket Man"
" Big Button"
"lyin' Ted"
"Sh#thole countries"

and the ever popular,

"No collusion!"

But... but he's like, really smart.

Trump decries immigrants from '****hole countries' coming to US - CNNPolitics

Still it could be worse, you could be labeled as coming from a "****hole" Country LOL... if he wasn't holding the big red button this fool would be funny.

is this just no different to the RS 71 and SR 71 gaff by LBJ?

And didn't your mother ever tell you not to mocked the afflicted :=

1) He won't be the first President to misspeak the designation of a new weapon system. Big deal.

2) He says what a lot of people think. If you don't like it, tough

Why would someone want to emigrate from Norway to a ****hole country like Trump's?

As for the sale of F-52s, Trump lives in his own fantasy world where truth and bullshhit are interchangeable.

I suppose that we Brits should just be glad that we haven't bought any F-52s -- and that Carillion hasn't got the maintenance contract.

Does this mean another renaming situation a la Johnson and the RS-71 announcement :E

CNN:
Sounds to me like fair comment.
