never claimed that it was real.......

even people hating on their new f-35 are not that well informed on how high tech that thing really is...
peace!
I bet that F-35 is worth every bit of the money they charge for it. I'm sure they use a ton of those $500 Mil. Spec. Hammers to make them.

Nuclear powered aircraft were tested by both the US and Soviets during the Cold War. The projects were cancelled after they realized ICBM's were a better idea. The shielding required to protect the crews from ionizing radiation wieghed too much. It is rumoured that Soviets went through a couple test crews during the testing. They have a history of overexposing their reactor operators, so I believe this rumour.
Check it out.

Russia has a history of over exposing people to radiation. But then again so does the US.
absolutely fucking insane."In four decades, the Hanford plant near Richland and the Maiak plant near Ozersk each issued at least 200 million curies of radioactive isotopes into the surrounding environment--equaling four Chernobyls--laying waste to hundreds of square miles and contaminating rivers, fields, forests, and food supplies."
I've hear that the next plane, the U-238 will be powered by it's own nuclear reactor which can fly for ever. The pilots seat will be replaced with a $15,000.00 toilet seat update so the pilots can stay in the air indefinably. No more of this, "I got to land to take a shit" stuff.
Maybe i need to sell that idea to the Air Force and Navy
