Really? "America's B-25G Bomber: The Jet That Used A Tank Cannon"


Recommended Posts

Between this and the SDASM it must be "Outsource your plane identification to the lowest third-world bidder" week.

"... America's B-25G Bomber: The Jet That Used A Tank Cannon ..." A B-25G jet? No kiddin, eh?
B-52G is a jet; B-25G is not.
Spelling counts.

Some of the comments where this article is posted on Yahoo News are entertaining.

That's a click-bait site that will take submissions from virtually anyone.  I mean the first thing in their link bar is literally "Submissions".  The only requirement is a salacious headline. Forty years ago National Interest would have been a tabloid on the rack in the checkout lane of your local grocery.

Probably a "supermarket rag" but not like the old Weekly World News! Where else

could you read of a 90 year old grandmother pregnant by aliens or a French astronmer

discovering a steam locomotive orbiting the Earth? These just don't make it in the "main

stream" media today! LOL jon

They also don't produce their own articles. If you read closely everything one their site is a reproduction article from another source and most of the time it's several months after the original was published. It'll state "this article was first published on xxxxxx website on xxxxxx date" somewhere on their version of it.
