The omnipresent adjudicator hovering over the skies of Iraq can deliver heinous death at any waking instant.  You are taking a stroll down the street, plotting some terrorist attacks in your imagination, and suddenly, without ever feeling a thing, you are reduced to a full sized human splatter pattern.  The reality is, only you know for sure what you were really wanting, thinking, taking, doing…better shape up for the eyes in the sky.These dealings in death, the fine line between reality and the ability to play god with the lives of lesser men, are made possible by the ubiquitous ATK M230 Chain…

Sometimes I have trouble controlling myself when it comes to some of this stuff. I have seen it before on TV, but just simply haven’t gotten around to writing about it. I’m talking about the awe-inspiring Fire Scout UAV helicopter. A remote control helicopter capable of autonomous take-off, landing, and flight, it really just makes me giddy. Not to mention that this death machine’s release was coupled with an upgrade to the Hydra 70 rockets typically fired from the rocket pods mounted on Ah-64 Apaches. Now they’re laser-guided. …

This video is probably one of the coolest ones I’ve seen yet. Of course there will always be more for me to show you, but let me take a second to analyze just how bad ass this particular video is. The first thing to note is the obvious fact that the attack takes place at nightime, and was filmed by a nightvision camera. One advantage of the US military, we rule the night. Second, the enemy is being targeted by a Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) on the ground, whose laser couldn’t be seen unless filmed…

There is a lot of debate over what the best jet in the world is. I am going to leave this one up to you guys to decide. The f-22 Raptor is stealthy and fast and is a great technologically advanced Fighter, while the F-15C has the best combat record out of any Fighter in the world. All of the jets are great fighters for different reasons. What do you think the best Jet in the world is?

The AH-64 Apache attack helicopter embodies myriad modern manifestations of fighting units founded from even far back as ancient times. Think of it as a piece that can make any move that it wants on a chess board. With a standoff of modern armor, artillery, or infantry; the apache’s speed and firepower can allow the US to flank and then wreak havoc on dug-in enemy forces; just like armies from ancient times used horse-mounted calvary to flank and mount surprise attacks. Scores of apache helicopters can mount all out assaults, break through enemy lines, and allow…

AH-64 Apache Attack Helicopter
Mfg: Boeing [NYSE: BA]

The Apache attack helicopter has actually been around for some time now. It is not necessarily a new machine in and of itself, but its potential and features have been upgraded extensively since its deployment in Desert Storm I. With new fire-and-forget Hellfire missiles, an upgraded FLIR and night vision sensory module the AH-64 is likely one of the most fear inducing weapons in the US arsenal. The Apache can operate in any weather conditions, which renders its night missions the most ominous to…

The Apache is likely the most lethal killing machine ever built. The 30mm turret mounted below the pilot moves with the pilot’s helmet-mounted optical target selection system, which allows the pilot to aim the weapon without operating a joystick, simply look at it, and it can be killed, day or night, rain or shine. In this video, troops on the ground have called in an attack on a building that insurgents are hiding inside. The Apache fires its 30mm cannon and hydra rockets, which utterly devastate the structure.
