Can you imagine doing this with a modern jet fighter?

I guess you could do it with a Harrier that's more reliable but I doubt you could do it with the marine or navy version of the junk Strike Fighter. Too many computer glitches.

Actually we did! The B-36 was slated to carry a self-defense jet. And that wasn't too long ago...
