3 1/2 Time Outs (Vol... ummm... 1)


It's not Tuesday, but it's not Sunday either, so I'm gonna jump into the raging 3 1/2 Time Outs meme started by LarryD. He also started Fantasy Bishball, and I hope that makes a comeback this summer.

1. Here's an F4F, circa 1942. This was called "Wildcat."
It was armed with .50-cal machine guns and could also carry rockets and bombs.

2. Here's an F4F, circa 1972. This was called "Phantom."

It was armed with a variety of missiles and bombs.

3. Here's an F4F, circa 2012. This is called "Constitutional Defender."

3 1/2. The F4F "Constitutional Defender" is armed with these:

...and these:
...which makes this most recent F4F infinitely more powerful than either of the first two.
