>Missile stuff
Yeah, about that "missile stuff". AF1 often is seen with F16's in attendance (along with F15's and S Hornets).
My understanding is that the F15 was the designated plane for the ASAT.

We abandoned that program, but a variant built on that tech must now be deployed more widely, even to the smaller F16's. We strongly suspect Q is military, and we know he's not giving "classified" info, so there must be some open source info on a serious anti missile missile capable of deploying on the '16.
