Except the US doesn't have a cheap, easily available source of titanium.
The stuff we used for the SR-71 and F-14 had to be gotten surreptitiously from the Russians.
That's why the Space Shuttle didn't have the titanium heat shield it was designed with and had to rely on the newly invented, much more delicate, ceramic heat shields. Which, it can be argued, resulted in the all of the deaths of the Challenger crew.
Absolutely. Though I suspect that it's more they want to create their own specific fascist leaning messaging.
While I agree they look cool, they're an engineering nightmare and absolutely require titanium to build and that shit is too expensive for very little benefit.
The point of a variable wing was to increase the effective flight envelope and there's no point now that the same thing can be done with modern avionics and materials.
Sorry.
Sometimes a broken clock can be correct.
VOA is a CIA Imperialist propaganda tool, like USAID, and deserves to be removed. But don't take my word for it, read the CIA's own files about it before this administration hides that info as well.

Edit: Downvote all you want. That doesn't change facts. So if you're defending the removal of VOA and USAID you're basically defending American Imperial propganda and the vile tactics of the CIA.
Good luck with those ethical gymnastics.
Dems: snatching defeat from the jaws of victory since 2000!
Reiterating that split days off suck. I didn't mind having non-weekend consecutive days off, but weekends were much better.
Personally I'd take Thursday/Friday off if it's possible because things still happen socially on those days. If that matters to you.
You could always talk to a graphic designer who specializes in font design.
Or if you want to drop down that rabbit hole, there's font creation software that'll let you make whatever you want.
Find something close and edit it in that to get what you want. It's been forever since I did this so I don't even know what apps are available these days to recommend.
Then 3d print it at your local library.
Pretty sure you could get a useful product with a high quality chrome rattlecan.
