Leaked pictures of the Merkava IV
Those sneaky Isrealis...

All those pictures you've seen of the Merkava IVs have been fake.  This is the real thing.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I think he meant the debris they would suck up.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

Yeah, FOD is bad enough on runways.
I remember being stuck on FOD duty while I was in cadets years ago. Almost every goddamn time we went to CFB Greenwood.

Surely also a well placed shot to the turbine would cause massive damage?

You can harden an engine against that kind of thing, though. Otherwise the concepts behind the Caspian Sea Monster wouldn't be effective.

It's called ground-effect flight.
