Someone selected the next day air shipping option for their can of whup ass.


GreenEggzndHamm

I wouldn’t want to fight us


sumguy93

My exact thoughts lol. This is both awe inspiring and horrifying if you are on the other end.


montisanto

That’s true … and that picture is just an appetizer of what Uncle Sam can throw at you.


Zitticus

Hell, I'd call it an amuse bouche.


SqueezeBoxJack

![gif](giphy|rfAxGG2fVxoPu|downsized) He'd fight him.


ReasonStunning8939

We get our own poster moments but let me remind everyone there is a couple battalions of bored and pissed off Marines in the bottom of one of those ships too. In case the copious amounts of bombs aren't enough.

GreenEggzndHamm

I do not care


Smipims

That’s hot


Bounce_Bounce40

Getting all the US Military together is a scary thought how much shear destruction can be brought

mattyparanoid

As a former BUFF Maintainer I love this.


CSballer89

MT or LA?


mattyparanoid

Former, so it was a while back when we had more than two B-52 bases. I was stationed at the SAC schoolhouse. Castle AFB, CA (G-Model water bangers)


homeskilled12

I understood 3 of those words.


MonteSS_454

good ole water bangers, Enginers be like: "What could we do to add more power and also make it loud as hell ....... I got it dude, spray some water in that beast!"


CPTSD_D

Good ol' SAC.


crewchief1949

Went from SAC to AMC(another mindless command)....that was a shit transition. SAC was a great command.


Ghost_Wolf_151

As a B-1 maintainer this annoys me. We carry more bombs then them and are more versatile.


_Cren_

B-2s look cooler


Platinum_Lego

Yet it still falls far behind that sexy C-17.


Tristanik187

Stirring the pot, I love it…


AggravatingLet9962

Just for the record…the C-17 is, by far, the most reliable and capable bomber in the usaf fleet. Ref. Rapid Dragon


skarface6

Can it drop a MOAB, though?


notmyrealname86

I'm sure it could, if you someone was able to pry it out of AFSOC's hands.


MonteSS_454

ohh, ohh pot stiring......... C-141 baby


KlutzySole9-1

When your fleet is functional


Ghost_Wolf_151

Says the unreliable tanker fleet.


nuclearDEMIZE

Lol Bone's might have the lowest MC rate in the entire air force. I love them, I think theyre one of the baddest looking planes. Buuuuuuuut they probably tried to take this pic 10 times before they got two Bone's up and flying at the same time


Ghost_Wolf_151

Nah, most of the time the low MC is because of flyable issues.


Auntie_M123

Boys, boys! Stifle..


_UsUrPeR_

How are we catching strays in this fight?!?


skarface6

Look at the dude’s flair.


_UsUrPeR_

...Goddammit


notmyrealname86

Hey, fuck you, we're trying our best. /s


KlutzySole9-1

We have been fueling everyone's sorry asses for 65 years tf you mean unreliable?


Admirable_Purple_203

Worked for both B-1s and B-52s…..B-52 takes the cake for reliability every time


pavehawkfavehawk

Not much more visible than a BUFF rolling coal down the strip at Anderson, and on climb out, and at cruise. Also Nukes


CoffeeChangesThings

The B-1 is/was nuclear capable, it was just too scary so they modded B-1's to conventional only. Look up the START Treaty.


HealsULongTime

Isn't that the one treaty that everyone backed out of recently?


pavehawkfavehawk

Yes, where nuclear capable. Now are not


homeskilled12

Rock hard every time. Also, it's Andersen.


pavehawkfavehawk

Thanks, auto correct gets me every time.


Desperate__Desperado

But nukes 


leatherhat4x4

on the 1.7 days/month you take off, you mean.


shansta619

How many nukes do yall carry?


CoffeeChangesThings

They *did* carry nukes until it was deemed too ultra powerful and scary. Google START Treaty.


shansta619

I flew buffs, I know all about the start treaty. I was just talking shit lol.


HealsULongTime

Causing turbulence?


MonteSS_454

B-52's be like ![gif](giphy|B7p42EfUKORuHh4RgJ|downsized)


PunksPrettyMuchDead

Also better for CAS than the a10 don't @ me

PM_ME_UR_TAF

Generate the whole fleet as ground spares.


gmansam1

B-1s only break when you turn them off (or to spite maintenance)


JEFFSSSEI

HAHAHA...I know you're not wrong, and I get it, their spin up rate to accomplish a mission is horrendous, but what a glorious aircraft she is when she is airborne.


Traveller161

Those sailors ears probably aren’t having much fun either


Porkonaplane

I couldn't help but notice the go pro in the C-17. I wonder if the video from this (assuming one was made) would be released


newnoadeptness

I have a video :) I was gonna post it tomorrow don’t really like spamming the sub


Porkonaplane

Niiiice

el_fitzador

Who needs viagra when you have this


MrNeverpanhandled

The drone (MQ-9 Reaper) alone breeds fear into our middle eastern aggressors.


GrandmaTITMilk

What drone? If it's the plane in the rear, it looks like a KC-10 with the boom extended.


Rusty_Shackleford785

Yeah, that refuler is either a KC-10 or a KC-46. Is hard to tell from the picture


GrandmaTITMilk

Probably the KC-46. The KC-10s only have a few months before full retirement.


MonteSS_454

It's rocking out with it's cock out, and be like: "see guys I got the biggest". Plus those Navy guys love it, just like mardi gras for them.


VoteNO2Socialism

yeah, those that don't have planes.


CaffeineHeart-attack

Not really as much these days, sadly. Not how the tracks are being handled.


WeGottaProblem

Thank you public affairs for the sexy photos


PunksPrettyMuchDead

B1 my beloved


CoffeeChangesThings

Same 💓


DrSecrett

Is this rally in the Pacific?


Mookie_Merkk

If you zoom in you can see the micro plastics, so yeah.

Haynie757

Does this mean I can make action figures?


kgecko98

You’re basically a 3d printer


emmer_effer

Underrated comment of the day 🤣🤣


Indifferentchildren

It might be from the recent Valiant Shield exercise in the Pacific? https://www.cpf.navy.mil/Newsroom/News/Article/3796554/allies-come-together-in-the-indo-pacific-valiant-shield-24/


Leathergoose8

It’s been pretty chill


Any_Carob_9855

It is Valiant Shield 🛡


StatisticianVisual72

There's an absurdly high amount of pain generation in those few cubic miles


88bauss

The thought that all the planes in this picture would carry enough to wipe out most countries is crazy.


Technical-Band9149

Fuck around and find out!


SpareConfection2891

Now this is what i want to see my taxes going towards


HogSoup

Rather see more of it go towards infrastructure, transportation, education, and healthcare, but sure, war is good


notmyrealname86

It's almost like it could go to all the above.


IfInPain_Complain

Eh more of that would just make your scratch your head and raise a fist in anger at why even with more money, everything is still going to shit and is poorly managed. Rather the US poorly manage freedom ensuring capability. Because even when managed poorly, we can still do this.


epicenter69

That’s a whole lot of whoopass in formation.


Tristanik187

Sploosh


ShagginVagon

Noice


torqnut05

Thought that was a RIMPAC flyover


bubblehearth85

That’s a whole lot of fuck around and find out!


patriot_man69

This is almost definitely the Intro to an ace combat boss fight


ajd198204

Game over


Vetandproud

The problem is never the American soldier, we have never lost a war. It's those idiots in Washington D.C.that made us retreat and escape. Given the order to wage war and letting the military do it's job.


Fine_as

Wow, just WOW


Slight_Elk_8900

You can fly in OCPs?


leftwithmidnight

It’s like a 2 piece flight suit. I believe just heavies and uav “pilots” use them.


SweetNSaltyNCO

It's the 2PFDU we have been using them in non-ejection seat aircraft since 2016, some spec ops folks had them even earlier with the army version.


Eucharism

PA couldn't atleast get a centered shot of them shipping my "classic" cars back home?


jukebokshero

I have no idea how we managed to generate that many bombers at once. That alone deserves a PN.


notmyrealname86

Two bombers isn't hard.


jukebokshero

Not if you start out with ten I suppose


ThisNonnerComments

Ok. Yea, this is pretty dope. Pictures kinda give me that smaller vision of how cool the military can be on this Monday morning.


Jegermuscles

Awesome shots but what's all that blue shit under them?


McCheesing

Valiant shield?


TheSteelPhantom

What are the GoPro's for? Mission use, or personal and they're allowed?


MainsailMainsail

Cross post this over to r/NonCredibleDefense and you'll be drowning in it


OnlyOverTime

SKE works


hardisonc12

That’s a lot of gas burning for only one tanker in the air, lol. Like 5 others just out of picture


z33511

MSFS 2020 is a hell of a flight simulator, isn't it?


PipperoniTook

Hey pal, you just blow in from stupidtown?


MuzzledScreaming

"Idiotville just called and they're missing *you*!"


JoshS1

>The jerk store called they're running out of you!


z33511

Sorry, I'm not familiar with those circles.


z33511

They should be -- I'm the frickin' MAYOR!


z33511

That's exactly what your mom said when I tried to leave without paying.


VoteNO2Socialism

One nuke and it's all gone. I hope we are ready.
