Guys doing some reading on how the house banned the sale of f-14 parts at auction to prevent Iran from getting parts.

Question why dont we circulate parts that we know will fail, bringing down some of their birds. Is this practical?

I bet the stuff they are flying with is older than the stuff we have as surplus.

Plus, you never KNOW what is going to fail.

And if something is probable to fail, well then, the parts they have are older than ours, so they will probably fail sooner.

Just send some cruise missles and be done with the fretting, sell them some brand new 60 series F-16s to replace them, then bomb them as well :twisted:
