If they conflate the two pilots they never have to prove they rescued the one in Iran when they were actually trying and failing to extract uranium stockpiles so now they can parade around the other pilot because the Iran pilot is dead pepe-silvia

That pilot’s name? John McCain.

Get in the F-15 Shinji! shinji-screm

Hopefully this guy gets in planes that get shot down every few weeks forever

This pilot should go on and represent Arizona in Congress.

Maybe the pilot is just dogshit

Your awful spinal problems in later life are not service related.

One has to practice this kind of thing so that when the time comes it doesn't look like desertion. See Orr's arc in Catch-22.

That's USAmerican gusto, "getting back on the ~~horse~~ $97M fighter jet"

To be fair if you put me in one, I would also crash as many as possible

Char Aznable in the USAF, get shot down, keep surviving, get new models of higher tier military tech for each fuck up.

John Mc~~Clane~~Cain 2.0. US pilots are famously shit, George W. Bush was a combat pilot lol. These bourgie kids think they can just fly jets and bomb weddings/hospitals.

Bizarro Ghost of Kiev, instead of shooting down multiple Russian jets, he gets shot down multiple times but survives to fly the next day.

First F-15 Anti-Ace

[–] Chana@hexbear.net 14 points 23 hours ago

Is another F-15 at least shot down? Because that's an unqualified win

[–] MaxOS@hexbear.net 14 points 1 day ago

he just has really bad luck
