    A painted fursona like this would give a radar return, right?

    We’ll just have to settle for our waifu pillow stuffed under the seat next to the uncrustables.

      If you store the uncrustables next to the pillows, they may become recrusted.

      The fursona wouldn’t matter on that specific jet. It also has an onboard microwave. You can paint your waifu AND bring frozen tendies under the seat.

      That would definitely fuck with the stealth of some of the more modern combat aircraft though

        Oh shit, yeah, is that a B-1?

        You actually could make a microwave that’s stealth-friendly, if you got it shielded enough. I wonder if that’s been considered, or even done.

        Edit: Yes, on the B-2.

          Yeah, I’m pretty sure that’s a bone. The f111 looking nose combined with the girthmaster deluxe front landing gear are the tells in this picture.

          As it turns out, aircrew need to be able to eat shit and sleep onboard if you want significant loiter capabilities. That was my favorite part of aircrew banter; eagle crews escorting bones liked to show off how fast and agile their jets are, and the bone crew would show off by flying straight and level for a bit while they heated up their lunch then shit in a toilet instead of a diaper

      Are you fucking stupid?

      Do you seriously think that the DoD forgot to include the line item for radar absorbing hentai plane art?

      JFC get with the times.

    What I really like to imagine is the pilot coming up to the requisitions officer, who gives that long silence and glance of “are you fucking serious?”, then passes the order along all the way to someone in an govt office job who reads “Sexy Loona Decal for Airplanes 2.6m x 1.7m — 200 USD”, sighs and signs the order.
