USA in a nutshell
-
bullshit the US is notorious for canceling projects once they have developed enough to cannibalize the data
the US defense is probably more interested in developing a flying terminator than a flying bike -
interesting stuff what about when a solider flys by accident over the enemy is there some kind of fogging device that creates a smoke bomb type of thing or is that the biggest waste of $20k a pop..

Fuck all this military shit. The bike just looks fun simple as that.
