14. The JAS.39 Gripen. This is a small single-seat fighter using the American F404 turbofan engine. This aircraft is capable of numerous missions (point-defense interceptor, ground attack fighter, and even anti-shipping). It is highly maneuverable, and is a worthy successor to the Draken and Viggen interceptors that Sweden has built. This is what the 1980s F-20 Tigershark (an early competitor of the F-16 and F-18) could have been, had it not been stillborn. 13. F/A-18E/F Super Hornet. This is the ultimate Hornet, without the range limitations of the F/A-18A/B/C/D, and with two extra weapons pylons. This fighter is based on a proven design, and has even been used as a tanker with the premature retirement of the S-3 Viking. Sheer versatility – and improvement from the original make the Super Hornet’s place on this list a secure one. 12. F-15C Eagle. This is perhaps one of the last of the single-purpose aircraft. This plane has done one thing for 30 years (air-to-air combat), and done it well (over 100 kills to no losses). However, what is remarkable is the almost-untapped potential the airframe has as a ground-attack platform. The F-15E Strike Eagle has become a superb multi-role fighter. However, the F-15 has gotten long in the tooth for air superiority. 11. Chengdu J-10 - This Chinese fighter is almost as good as teh F-16C Fighting Falcon. Carries the almost same payload (within 300 pounds) of the F-16. Same speeds at altitude and sea level as F-16. 10. F-16C Fighting Falcon. This is a bird that has become a classic. Widely exported, and it has amassed a solid record. Still being built to special order for export customers, it not only has scored air-to-air kills in service with the United States, Israel, and Pakistan, but it is also one of the most numerous modern fighters in service today. 9. Su-27 Flanker. This was built to counter the F-15, and it has become one of the more feared aircraft out of Russia. Highly maneuverable, it is equipped and designed for a dogfight, it has been exported. The wide export market for this plane and its variants (the Su-30 in particular) is the primary reason for the F-22. 8. F-14D Tomcat. This is a plane that had aged like fine wine. Originally designed to face the Tu-22M3 Backfire bomber in protection of American carriers, it has become a carrier-launched version of the F-15E. Capable of long-range attacks using the AIM-54 Phoenix, the F-14 proved it was capable of dogfighting in two incidents with Libya (the U.S. Navy fighters scored four kills for no losses). This is a plane retiring before its time. 7. Eurofighter Typhoon. A low-observable multi-role fighter. It is fast, maneuverable, and carries a lot of air-to-air missiles. It also can be used for attack missions as well. This is a fighter that will be the backbone of at least four air forces (the UK, Spain, Germany, and Italy). 6. Dassault Rafale. Another European multi-role fighter with some stealth built in, this aircraft not only carries out the air-to-air and attack missions, it also comes in a naval version. Its first export order was recently signed – to Saudi Arabia. Equipped with French air-to-air missiles, it edges out the Eurofighter since its naval version could interest other countries who have carriers (Brazil and India come to mind). 5. F-35. This plane will be the new F-16 in ten years. Not only is this replacing the F-16, the A-10, the AV-8B, and some F/A-18s in U.S. service, but it will replace aircraft in other countries as well. Like the F-16, it will be produced in numbers. When it enters service, it will outclass many aircraft. Comes with HELLADS AAM system. Flies vertically like Harrier IIs. 4. Chengdu Super-10 : A stealth, 5th-generation fighter developed from the J-10B featuring a more powerful engine, thrust-vector control, stronger airframe and passive phased-array radar, and much more, according to Russian sources. It is also reported to be having carrier-born capabilities. 3. Sukhoi PAK FA - The PAK FA was designed to compete with the F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Lightning II, the world's first fifth-generation fighter jets. Due to it having the same take-off weight as Raptors; it is basically a clone. It doesn't have supercruise, but it does have afterburner. 2. F-22 Raptor. This is the F-15C’s replacement. Entering service in 2005, it renders every other air-superiority aircraft obsolete. This is a plane that can not only outfly any other plane in the world, outrun any other plane in the world, and it can do so while remaining virtually unseen. The F-22 is a true heir to the F-15, and could do so in another fashion if Lockheed’s FB-22 proposal takes off. Comes with HELLADS AAM system. This F-22 Raptor gets #2, because it has supercruise technology; otherwise it would get #3 and PAK-FA would get #2 1. Northrop Grumman Switchblade - Evolution of the X-29; featured in Popular Mechanics magazine two years ago, this is variable switchable aircraft does exist in blueprints and dates 1999. It has three modes Long wingspan increases lift, enabling slower flight speeds for precision bombing and landing on short runways. Forward sweep provides a good balance of lift and drag; efficient airflow over the wings and control surfaces enhances the fighter's maneuverability for air-to-air combat. Low aspect ratio provides the least drag, enabling the aircraft to speed up to Mach 3. In this configuration the trailing edge becomes the leading edge, a section of the wing root becomes the new trailing edge. Comes with HELLADS AAM system. HELLADS power supply found List of other projects Foreign countries are having high energy lasers for 6th gen aircraft. We have them in 2008! Land version

Yeah, it's a bunch of Sun spots and Sun flares seeping through the ozone and wasn't dissolved in Earth's Atmosphere. Nuclear Power Plants don't affect anything. It's mostly a hoax. The only thing that did affect weather a bit was 70 something nukes going off between 1945 - 2003. Never fear. Ian to the rescue. It goes in cycles. Heat wave of 2003 was the direct result of a sun flare. Technically, there is no truth behind nuclear power plant environmental scheme so everybody can build as many nuclear power plants as it wants; spare the U235 production.

Margaret Thatcher (former conservative party UK Prime Minister) once said:

"The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money."

Senator Bachmann says our very own country is running out of people to tax with a joint income of $100,000+. Maybe Obama should quick do Reaganomics, but he is so insane in charisma and wanting to tell us how bad off we are that we're running out of rich people to tax. Good thing I am not a democrat. We have Glen Beck in our face.



A sensible and prudent national energy policy should have, as two of its primary goals, 1) maximizing the lifetime of our remaining resources of fossil fuels, and, 2) making sure that the harmful by-products of energy utilization (waste heat and pollution) do not exceed the long range carrying capacity of our environment.

We can support a near 500 million population by 2050 if Government apply Gen3+ and Gen4 hydrogen power plants in key locations. Yucca Mountain is mandatory. We can't have several hundred acres of wind turbans. Focusly solely on wind turbans are more crazy than ITER-based (magnetoplasma/Gen4) hydrogen power plants.

US at least needs 30% nuclear with ITER-based (magnetoplasma/Gen4) hydrogen power plants by the time US has remotely near 500 million residents.

One of the reasons why I voted republican was national healthcare is INSANE. Every other country with nationalized healthcare (all the first world nations) is broken right now. WE can be socialist, but not socialist medicine. Canadian healthcare is broken, because there is no motivation and people have to wait in line. USA capitalist healthcare is the best in the world, because we modification people. Other countries governments are so socialist biased, that they can not change to a capitalist privatized medicine. Remember, you Americans don't know how good our country has it with capitalist medicine. It's #1 in the world.

The left is totally crazy in this regard, and will never vote democrat ever. They all belong in asylums. Being medicine to all is an allusion to destory our economy. You can be democrat, but don't change our medicine unless you want a Great Depression II. It is so  expensive when it doesn't have to be, and you know the liberals are borrowing from China and denying that. It's insane! You liberals are all insane for supporting nationalized healthcare

Every other country which done it health care went down the toilet!

t's the democrats fault they're not liberal conservative. Liberal Liberal is a nice term for European style socialism. Socialism isn't capitalism. Luxembourg, Moscow, Russia, Australia, Hong Kong, China, are Japan (2nd largest economy GDP wise) are capitalism

The Green Politics is evil and stupid, because there is photosynthesis (trees breath in Co2 and release oxygen) and we are in dire need of more Nuclear/Hydrogen nuclear power plants. The wind turbans kill so many birds, it's a government coverup. PEDA isn't there to be against it, because they're obviously paid by democrats. We can do both nuclear and green energy at the same time. Nuclear power on the power grid is 19.4% and we need 25% just to stay afloat.
Go man! Wasted money damn right.
This "stimulus bill" is to help permanently lock in a version of liberal economy with damning nationalized healthcare. Our healthcare system isn't broken. It's unwise and stupid.

We can slow this evil communist bill ready to pass down and done much better since 70% of this bill is based on non-essential spending like demolishing the 90% better capitalist healthcare over the socialist healthcare of the Australia, UK, Canada, Western Europe, Russia.

To sum it up we need to keep capitalism + new nuclear power plants + keep private healthcare, and it sure well won't cost $2 trillion

Oh yeah, fear inflation! That's why China is having problems! Don't be democrat for inflation's sake.
