Generally, I'm a pacifist. But this Department of Defense image of F/A-18 Super Hornets flying over Afghanistan (lit by some sort of flare?), makes mechanized war look as romantic as any chick flick. Meanwhile, this refueling shot is pure sci-fi:
It's like Top Gun reshot by JJ Abrams.
To ride in such a vehicle would be well-worth the inevitable vomiting. Until then, I'll have to settle for my 10 seconds on a jetpack.
