This one seems more viable than this one:

Looks more like a conventional fighter.

As it said at the end of the vid, this one still can't do conversion which puts it behind the boeing.

The JSF program that has a price tag of... wait for it... $40 billion dollars.

A fighter jet that will be so far ahead of the curve that it will have no competition to face in the skies. I personally think this will be completely useless in the future small scale conflicts and anti-terrorism activities.

Very apt observation - except as with Indy/F1 cars, the high-tech bleeding-edge eventually trickles down to regular consumer use.

So as wasteful and inefficient as this may be - especially on the weaponization side - there may be benefits no one has yet even thought of...

This plane won the contest, becoming the Joint Strike Fighter known as F-35 Lightning II.

I don't see what benifits this tech could bring consumers. We've had VTOL for years and nothing has developed from that. I mean when supersonic is too expensive to be viable then what would we need this for?

automated stabilization systems maybe, for future tech like personal low-flight vehicles.

  • Would This 16th Century Helmet Terrify a Jousting Opponent? http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Neatorama/~3/itWtun6v5aY/ http://www.neatorama.com/2009/11/10/would-this-16th-century-helmet-terrify-a-jousting-opponent/#comments Tue, 10 Nov 2009 23:00:29 +0000 Minnesotastan http://www.neatorama.com/?p=27415 helmetThis embossed, etched, and gilded steel close helmet is attributed to German armourer Kolman Helmschmid.  It currently resides in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where there is a relevant essay on fashion in 16th century European armor.

    Helmets fitted with masklike visors were a popular German and Austrian fashion about 1510 to 1540. With their visors forged and embossed as humorous or grotesque human masks, such helmets were often worn in tournaments held during the exuberant pre-Lenten (Shrovetide) festivals, celebrations somewhat akin to the modern Mardi Gras. Substitute visors of more conventional type were often provided for everyday use.

    Interestingly, the postulated 1515 date for this helmet would make it contemporary with the “horned helmet” previously posted at Neatorama.
