It's picking up on CNN. Stealth aircraft won't fly now, but cruise missiles do...

you would think it's a strategic advantage to use stealth fighters to good use...

The WAR'S ON at 10:15PM!


As for the stealth aircraft, they are black and lack any defensive armament aside from stealth, they are designed for night attack

We're not going to bomb during daylight (which it will be in an hour so). Our very "intelligent" engineers decided to make our planes (F-117a) black/dark gray in color....... so unless we want them to be shot out of the sky we have to go at night.

 

[Atrail]

Say a pray for the troops...

Well, we've still got F-15E's and F-16C/D's to bomb in the day.

Judging by the number of replies, a sticky isn't going to be necessary. :Q

Can't use them unless you have jamming aircraft up with them, otherwise they are sitting ducks. See Gulf War I for details...

You might want to rethink that...we might "accidentally" bomb them again.

Once that EMP goes off, we won't be seeing much of anything from inside Baghdad.

Is anyone even left inside the city? I would've left on Monday if I were there, even if I had to walk out.
