d00ery@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump Goes on Weird Rant About Military Planes Not Being Pretty Enough14·5 days ago“Sometimes, you know, stealth, they do stealth,” Trump said. “I’m not a huge believer in stealth, because stealth is basically, a lot of it’s the design and the shape. … You’re going to design an ugly plane for stealth reasons. And then six months later, they’re going to figure out this, and then you’re stuck with a plane.”
Trump’s new stance on stealth differed from remarks he made during his first administration, when he repeatedly extolled the F-35’s stealth capabilities.
“You can’t see it,” Trump said in 2017. “You literally can’t see it. It’s hard to fight a plane you can’t see.”

Oh I understand now that I misunderstood.
More than that. One can creep about, or flit stealthily from place to place.

When I’ve been to a driving range there’s someone employed with a golf cart who drives around collecting the balls.
I thought this was a personal ball gobbler and based on the original image it seemed rather impractical, but the big sticky arms makes it much more useful.
