The military always asks for name help with the names then they open up their stupid name book close their eyes and pick one.

I sometimes wonder who comes up with the names the military uses.

LTC (Join to see) Sometimes they get it right. Spectre, Spooky, Raptor, Viking, Intruder, Eagle, Reaper, Hornet all solid. Grumman did pretty good with their cats. Wildcat, Helcat, Bearcat, Tigercat, Cougar, Panther, and Tiger. I may catch a lot of shit for this, but I hate the name Hornet. I know it goes back to the Continental Navy, but why name a plane or a ship after a foul tempered asshole with wings.
