If you've got a helicopter that can haul a 70 ton tank please give the US Army a call, currently there looking for something that could haul a 24 ton FCS and have found that of all existing designs only a heavily upgraded Mi-26 might be able to do it.Captain Lennox wrote:

You want to know a funny fact? The mandatory minimum sentence for possession of a kilo of marijuana is equal to many violent crimes, including violent rape. That's right, both crimes carry a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years. Kinda freaky.
