@CDRW - I know, right?

@Calnos - Dash as Blackbird. Now that is sweet.

I think AJ would be more of a Warthog. Or perhaps AC-130?

#329677 storyyeller Thu, 17th Jan '13 3:42:03 PM from Appleloosa

My only exposure to the Warthog is in C&C Generals, where it's pretty much an Obliterate button.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

Evening everypony. What's going on?

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

Metallic beasts of the sky.

When warthogs fly sounds like one of those expressions.

I'm not present for a A-10 discussion?!

I'm slacking.

I intend to destroy the molecular bonds that bind your very matter together, and reduce the resulting particulate chaos to tears.

#329682 d Roy Thu, 17th Jan '13 4:28:24 PM

Yes, yes you are.

Come on, gives us the vision of bloodshed, my prophet.

#329683 CDRW Thu, 17th Jan '13 4:32:35 PM

You know what? I want to see more ponified aircraft ala My Little Blackbird. And when the A-10 shows up, it can buck somebody in the face when they call it "ugly."

I don't get why people think the A-10 is ugly, it's one of the coolest looking aircraft ever built!

A-10 versus the Equestrian Air Force.

Who would win?

Equestrian Air Force, hooves down.

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

#329686 CDRW Thu, 17th Jan '13 4:50:07 PM

Pfft! Not without unicorn support they wouldn't!

Of course, the A-10 does have the weakness of not really being outfitted for air-to-air. The main gun isn't so good because it takes a half-second to get up to speed.

The A-10 could take down pegasi until it had to rearm and refuel, I reckon.

It is bloody impossible to kill one.

Until the sonic rainboom in your face!

#329689 d Roy Thu, 17th Jan '13 4:55:10 PM

It destroys tanks (which, contrary to the popular belief, are not a breed of tortoises).

It shrugs off artillery rounds.

It can fly with one wing and a broken engine.

Your call, pegasi.

#329690 Orion Aurora Thu, 17th Jan '13 4:57:55 PM from Andromeda Galaxy

@Roy: We can do all of that and look stylish while do it.

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

#329691 Steventheman Thu, 17th Jan '13 4:57:55 PM from Wales

I do not mean to be vulgar, but if it were possible, and ignoring the fact it would be an insult to both God and man, I would carry an A-10's child.

Why don't people understand my intentions?

#329693 d Roy Thu, 17th Jan '13 5:00:04 PM

@Orion - Really? You guys can fly with broken brain and missing wing? You guys can shrug off artillery strikes with calibre of at least a dozen sonic rainbooms?

Rock on, man.

#329694 Kalloon White Thu, 17th Jan '13 5:00:28 PM from A pond in a lake

Me no understand plane talk.

Insert something witty that makes me better than all of you, here.

How about 3 Metal Gear RA Ys versus the Royal Sisters?

#329697 CDRW Thu, 17th Jan '13 5:02:45 PM

Actually, I would like an explanation about pegasi shit. Those Tweets from Lauren have opened up a whole lot of questions.

#329699 d Roy Thu, 17th Jan '13 5:06:42 PM

Oh wait, pegasi do stand a fighting chance.

They can basically charge at the flying meat grinder until it slows down enough so at least a dozen more can bring it down by turning themselves into bird strikes. They can keep doing that until the bloody Warthog needs to refuel.

#329700 Steventheman Thu, 17th Jan '13 5:07:27 PM from Wales

So, they can either die in their droves running away, or die in their droves charging it.

It's a Pyrrhic Victory at best.
