I read something about his a ways back and though I'd bring it up. It was a transport that would fly at extreme altitudes (maybe even space) and cruise at many times the speed of sound. I think this would be a great idea as the US seems to be shifting towards a more deployable and fast reacting armed forces. Some of the things I would like to see included on this would be a vertical take off/landing system, and perhaps the ability to hold a few arms (maybe the MOAB and some precision weapons) Thoughts?

Agreed but then the Chinese and Russians and others would whine about it and then like little kids they would want one too. Then the bloody sky would be filled with the things.

I would only trust the US with something like this but then there are many who for various reasons would not even trust the US either.

It would help to educate the american citizens a bit more than just US history and news. Less arrogance would result in more intelligent and polite leaders which then will be in favour of the Near East conflict.

The Royal family supported the USA as BinLadin just figured out that he hates the USA. That was the problem and not the initial support which was under totally different circumstances(and under those BinLadin was supported by the Saudis and the USA).

But don't mind and go on thinking that harshness and arrogance will make the Arab world to like the USA

Sounds like you have something to say on this issue, but this is not the topic or forum for this. Take it elsewhere.

Thanks for getting back on topic and discussing weaponry versus your political views.

TheButcher - this concept would aid in the rapid deployment of forces, but the US is already a VERY deployed and fast acting military and has been for quite some time.
