I think nerds are true bad asses of the world.

@00thelastottoman00 I find it quite surprising for a country to believe the Earth is flat to produces stealth weaponry.

IRAN STARTED TO PRODUCE IT BY USING LOST DRONE...

I wanted to be a pilot when I was a kid, but after seeing this, I realized that being a nerd payed more

@MokomaSusi I can't find one piece of literature anywhere that even implies, much less states "germans were non innovative" or "germans didn't make many advances in biomedical technology" so if this is your point - you are simply wrong. If your point is " that does not mean other countries didn't know about jet engines. Same goes to most of those things you write about" then you have waisted your time / and mine as thats not even relevant to my statement. I already know.

@MokomaSusi I mean people have known about rubber long before they had rubber soles on shoes. Does that mean Humphrey O'Sullivan wan't the inventor of rubber heeled shoes?

Maybe google search " nazi technology" and do it under the "books" category. You will see that 100's of doctors, proffessors, institutions agree so much so they have books on the subject... I only think this way because that's what i have been taught.

@MokomaSusi I said Jets as in the aircraft nothing about ONE technology used in the engine. I also said Missiles nothing about gyroscopic guidance. Whats your point? China had missiles technically in 1 A.D..

Stephanie Kwolek invented Kevlar - But she was not involved in any of the applications: bullet proof materials. (she had no clue it was/could be bulletproof). Rubber was never invented- it has always been here- does that mean no one invented the tire? or condom?

Why dont they show those antigravity stuff they have.

@sbc2k1

Never heard of Frank Whittle and Sergei Korolev? Germans were first ones to have jet fighter in service, but that does not mean other countries didn't know about jet engines. Same goes to most of those things you write about.

Soviets tested their first cruise missile mockup (212) in 1936, but it failed.. it's general layout was very similar to V-1. Does that mean Germans copied Soviets?

V-2 used gyroscopic guidance, but first rocket to use such system was made by Robert Goddard.

Do pilots still have to take off and land like with the predator or does it auto land?

And this is a good thing? I have a one word comment: Terminator
