Why do US Air Force planes have tailhooks? As far as I understood, it's only supposed to be Navy planes that have tailhooks, since they also have the souped-up/beefed-up (yummy) landing gear built to withstand slamming those planes onto a rolling, pitching, short stretch of metal in the middle of the ocean. So it seems kind of odd that the last few US Air Force fighters I saw had tailhooks, or at least what looked like tailhooks (e.g., this long hook-like rod thing that's on the underside of an F-15C Eagle, in between the afterburners). Far as I know, Air Force pilots aren't even carrier qualified. So...what gives?

From dehumanization to arms production,
For the benefit of the nation or its destruction
Power, power, the law of the land,
Those living for death will die by their own hand..

Isn't it funny how the best poems come from the worst feelings?
Its hard to be enthused by politics, when all your heroes are dead...
