This "fact sheet" looks like Lockheed Martin marketing material. I feel like an enthusiast's fact sheet would be more likely to focus on the plane itself instead of the programs and partnerships.
Perhaps they have the plane autism that's about the business side of things.
Business autism. Loves working with others.
Right and the facts aren’t even that great. I lowkey call bullshit on this.
I high key call this a joke
I lowkey call bullshit on this.
But who would do such a thing?
What kind of person would just get on the Internet...
...and tell lies?! D:
And boring marketing material at it.
I remember as a kid, a good friend gave me the marketing material for (at the time) Aérospaciale helicopters. That stuff was premium with beautiful, detailed drawings of a Super Puma on very fancy paper. I loved that shit.
But he's wrong. The F-15 is... Oh, no
You too?
I think it's spreading via plane facts!
F-15? That's a funny way of writing F-111
I actually did this with warbler identification sheets, I feel so called out 😭 At least they’re not hitting Mach 2 I guess, that probably makes them easier to identify.
As a novice to birding, Imma need those references!
I use these from Cornell, you have to sign up to download them but it’s free once you do that. Happy birding and good luck, warblers are tricky, especially in fall!
Tried to find the sheet online, and found this: https://sustainability.lockheedmartin.com/content/dam/lockheed-martin/aero/documents/April2023F16FastFacts.pdf
Yeah, I mean, this is a sales pitch, it feels like. Are salesmen autistic? Probably some of them!
Does Costco carry F16s in bulk? Need a 4 pack for a friends only match.
Assuming this isn't fake I'd guess "made laminated fact sheets" means printing out fact sheets from the Lockheed Martin website & laminating them. Not making the original document.
I would say not many lol. Autistic people love talking about stuff they don't care about to people they don't know /s
Husband works at Lockheed Martin.
Favorite Plane
Not the F22
Call a divorce lawyer immediately
I may be a 41 year old, never married, single man, but the A-10 is the best plane ever built.
I will die on this lonely hill.
Best plane ever built goes "BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRP!!"
This hill we stand on is only lonely because they heard its mighty, peerless roar, and scrambled for the caves.
Screw you, and your non F-14 opinion!
You got your opinion from Top Gun, an automatic disqualification
YF-23 >> F-22
F14 Tomcat, F18 Hornet and F16 Fighting Falcon all cooler than the F22
Get your war plane outta the way, here comes the true king:
I love my laminator. Favorite office tool, evar.
That's just because you haven't met my label maker. It does the letters one at a time, manually, embossed into a strip of plastic.
Oh, I am familiar with those, I had one in black-and-white. The laminator has just superseded that; it is still my second favorite piece of office equipment.
I bet this autistic husband is popping champain getting that promotion every time there is a war!
He's so autistic he does not care that his company has been the top supplier for genocides around the world.
Tell him we found remenants of his products dropped on a school bus stained with children blood in Yemen :

Lemmings when arms dealer arms deal.
So many butthole logos at the bottom :)
You had me at "laminated".

I think laminator ownership is enough for clinical diagnosis
I have one but never used it (probably since 20 years at this point), what is the diagnosis?
I bought it back when I was a low rank in the forces as I imagined it could be useful for these single page instructions that you sometimes carry with you. However it was never really needed
I may be autistic, but I don't have a stutter.
Too many philistines here are ignorant of the glory of the CL-415
I'm going to need to put together some mailers, what are all your address?
A fine airframe if ever there was one.
As a very not-autistic, super cool and normal guy, he's definitely autistic if his favorite plane is the F-16 and not the SR-71!? I can DM you the paper I wrote on it in college for an assignment on the subject of love, entitled Love is Like an SR-71 Blackbird.
I just love MiG's. Why? Because the ruskies just rawdogged everything. They saw the F16 with all that fancy fly by wire stuff and made a nimble MiG without any real computer assisted flying with the fulcrum. You have the fastest plane with the SR-71? Well fuck that, here , we've put an after burner on that MiG-31 so big it more or less matches the SR-71 speed. It just burns through the engine in one flight and the airframe also takes a big hit when you use it but who cares about costs, we're commies.
Soviet aerospace engineers man. You just have to love them. They really used that hammer logic (hit it harder!) on everything.
Or the approach which led to the hind heli. What? You need a gunship and you need a troop transport? What do you say, the Americans have pinpoint precision on that superCobra and that shiny Apache thingy?
Here, i've made it big so it can fit a lot of troops. I've added some large wings so you can fill her up with all kinds of low tech Rockets so you don't need pinpoint precision. Just point and click in the general direction and everything over there is annihilated. Yeah, that goes for that tank and that family of twelve 100m further down the street where you didn't aim at as well.
But, they aren't us anyway so.... And next to that the fucker is really fast for such a big helo..
The design principles are so fantasticly wack. Matching (try to) western computertech with low tech solutions.
I am glad you made this comment about the MiG 31 so I didn't have to, lol.
Fancy schmancy j58 turbo "ram" jet with convoluted design that has two different afterburner / bypass loop modes, with crazy air bypass/recycling plumbing?
Nah, fuck that.
Just make the entire engines out of titanium and nickel, we have a lot of that shit in Siberia, and, use a fuck off huge heat exchanger system in the single bypass loop.
Also, this quote:
https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/secrets-of-the-d-30f6-turbofan.44489/
Apparently this is where you go when you're too old to know what a 'Warthunder' is, lol.
Anything can match the SR-71 if you strap enough afterburners to it.
I love Soviet stuff, too, but didn't know the story of the MiG. I actually have a small collection of Soviet watches, mostly space/aeronautics themed.
Did your paper include the ground speed check story?
And the fuel leakage due to thermal contraction at rest?
I believe my paper predated my exposure to that story, as I was in college ~20 years ago. Maybe that story was circulating then, too, I don't remember.
Could I....um see it please
What if it's the Gripen?
I do like this plane...
I'd say you might want to sit down, but something tells me I don't need to...
Edit: Jk, it's a very nice-looking plane. What can you tell us about it to convince us?
At the very least the f15 strike eagle (the most successful combat airframe of all time if you look at missions to frame losses or mission success).
Also as a very not-autistic, super cool and normal guy, it mystifies me that you said SR-71 and not A-10.
The SR-71 is really fast and sleek, sure, but how can it be your favourite when it doesn't even have a massive gun that goes BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT!...?
I'm gonna need that paper on my desk ASAP
Did I hear SR-71? The Blackbird? The fastest thing in the sky? Alright, you've done it now, you're really gonna make me
