 https://www.twz.com/air/majority-of-the-b-2-spirit-fleet-took-to-the-skies-in-a-mass-launch "Lol don't make us break out 12 Spirits" the USAF stated in a press release Thursday. "Look at these fucking things. We fuck up shit with one all the time, we just wanted to launch 12 at once to show all other countries how gay they are." |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By thunderopossom: The freedom dorito is truly amazing Yes it is lmao. Aside from nukes I like that they can drop one GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator on another one in the same hole. So let's say you're in a fucking mountain. These 12 could drop 24 of those. So even if you were 4,800 feet deep inside the mountain we're still going to get your ass |

To put into perspective how gay foreign aid is: Keeping the F-22 Credible Through 2030 Will Cost At Least $9 Billion, USAF Leaders Say Navy Refining Plan for its $17B Destroyer Electronic Warfare Backfit with 4 Test Ships The Navy invested $2.4 billion in cruiser modernization from 2016 to 2021 So 29 billion for all three? How much have we given Ukraine and Israel? More cool America stuff less gay other countries. |
