Actually that F-14 in the picutre is missing the highly classified [REDACTED] pod which is capable of [REDACTED] up to a distance of [REDACTED] for IR and [REDACTED] for visual targets. /s
"Best way to get correct information about a topic is to post wrong information on the internet, and someone will post the right information to correct you"
To be fair this also happened to Eagle Dynamics, developer of DCS, the other "realistic" flight sim that players take far too seriously. Except there it was a Dev that got arrested in Georgia and extradited to the US...
That pretty little triangle hasn’t flown a mission in about 15 years but yeah, we still use Luneberg reflectors on 35s. That’s not secret science though

At least get a picture of a F-117. Putting up an image from the game with a random aircraft is just lazy.

As is 9 year old Ford, Nighthawk was the first plane model I ever built

It's too fucking funny that people are willing to post classified military specs on aircraft just to bitch about a game.

Devious Russian plan to gather intelligence: bother dumb people with inaccuracies to get them to leak the docs

Anyone else here only remember that Georgia is a country because of splinter cell?
Nerd02@lemmy.basedcount.com · 14 pts · 2y
No, usually I remember that Georgia is a state in the USA because of comments like this
redditReallySucks@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 5 pts · 2y
Never heard of that. Could you explain?
mob@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 2y
Georgia is a state in America
Georgia is a country in Europe/Asia
Splinter Cell is a game that uses the country of Georgia as a map/plot.

Oh, I'm stupid. Forgot there was a state called georgia. Makes sense now. Thanks for the explanation

Probably not alot of secrets about that aircraft left . The Russians probably got a good look at the one that was shot down in 1999.

There are a few things left. They still use Luneburg lenses for opfor and non-us exercises.
