@83rkt No, I simply was watching P-8 videos and saw that you posted the exact same thing on each one. Based on the content of your comments, I didn't know that you were an adult. I feel much safer flying in an airframe that doesn't have cracked wingspars and can fly above 25k in an overland mission, keeps me out of range of more SA missiles.
Fuel conservation is pretty much a non-issue, with in-flight refueling, the P-8 can fly for 3 days straight.
@83rkt Did you just go to every video to see whether I'd done that or not? I don't call an adult "dude," either.
737 is fine, for hauling a very narrow loadout profile of people or cargo at a minimum of cost at an exactly optimal altitude & speed for fuel conservation. This is a God awful and insane design for placing into a combat role. Doing this conversion is a death sentence, and a war looser.
I'm biased because I don't want our aircrews to die for gangster war profiteers.
@DeadlyInertia he's referring to all the 737's using those engines in the world flying today there smart guy. If you add up all the hours on all the 737's using those engines it does equal millions of flight hours.
Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!?!!??!!??!!

Did you just go to every video you could find about the P-8 and copy and paste this? Get a life dude, you have no clue.

P8 is a WHITE ELEPHANT.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to replace a naval 4 engine turboprop with a wide body airliner with 2 jet engines.
IMPOSSIBLE
