The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II is a plane made in the USA with two engines. It is a jet plane with straight wings. It was constructed to go after tanks, vehicles with armor, and other targets on the ground that don't have the ability to defend themselves against airborne offenses. It's other name is "Warthog" or simply "hog".
According to Boeing, the company has recently retrofitted fighter jets that have since been retired and transformed them into drones. Last week an F-16 that was stored for 15 years in an Arizona facility flew last week with the cockpit empty. The Lockheed Martin aircraft was controlled from the ground by two pilots of the US Air Force. The drone took off from a base located in Florida and flew over the Gulf of Mexico at 40,000 feet (12.2kilometers). The retrofitted jet reached Mach 1.47 or 1,800km/h (1,119mph). Boeing said that this innovative approach could one day be used in pilot training particularly when they are provided a target for firing practice. This F-16 is not the first former fighter plane to be re-commissioned as a drone. An F-4 Phantom was used for target practice by the American Air Force in the past.
The biggest RC plane was made by three Belgian men and these three were included in Guinness Book of Worlds Records for their invention. The plane has an area of 8.9 meters, engine is 160 cc and it has weight of 210 kg. It is fabricated on a measure of 1/5 of the B29. The RC plane is huge and can carry three people to soar in the sky.
On October 1965, pilot CJ Stoddard delivered a uniquely shaped bomb onto North Vietnam to commemorate the six millionth pound dropped. This bomb was special because of it's load: it was a toilet bowl :).
Marines went into the plane and put a flag on a soldier's coffin when it came home as the gathered passengers and family gazed on. R.I.P James
It was something from a Star Wars movie before, but now the military is installing lasers in airplanes. These lasers were developed to defend the plane from threats like rockets and missiles coming at the plane. This is just an idea right now, but plans for this are serious and will be seen most likely in 2014.

Flappy What?? Well, Tank Of Course.

I've seen many of the FlappyBird clones out there, but this one must be the closest to my heart. One might think that a flying tank is absurd, but it actually is not. There were many experiments with flying tanks out there, but obviously they were all short lived. Nevertheless, there was one :). Check out how Flappy Tank is played below....

VladiBird: Possibly The Best Flappy Bird Clone Ever

With the crises in Ukraine, it was just matter of time before something like this came out ;). VladiBird is a classic replica of the FlappyBird game which took on the world in a sweeping phenomenon. When VladiBird fails, he lands into a butt :). Very fitting, given the nature of Russia's president Vladimir Putin and Russia's stand against gay rights. It seems a bit easier than......
