WOW. I was just watching Future Weapons on cable.?

You yanks have got a kick *** Military! Pretty cool stuff.

I'm surprised any country tries to provoke you like Iran and North Korea.

    well, we got some nice "toys" (great technology) but small military numbers today, (US military was twice the current size in 1991, but it was cut in half in the 90's by Bill Clinton, I know I was in the Active Navy), that's why half the forces in Afghanistan and Iraq today are Reservist, since we do not have enough forces in Active Duty, I am an Active Navy Reservist today.

    we haven't unleashed what we have on them for fear of overkill, civilians deaths etc. a mistake in my opinion, we should fight with everything we have or not fight at all!

    Yeah, the U.S Military has some pretty interesting and mind boggling toys in its inventory. Such as our UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) and the V-22 OSPREY, and so much more. But these "toys" are just piles of junk without our Men and Women serving in the Military.

    Also, the British have many nice toys aswell. Not everything you see on FutureWeapons is American!

    We really have the greatest weapons matched with some of the best trained soldiers in the world.

    Sadly a smuck with a crude weapon can also be effective.

    Check out our new F-22 Raptor. Awesome fighter jet with the radar signature of a bumble bee!
