Those moderate Iranians

First purchase with newly released funds?

150 Chinese J-10 Chengdu fighter aircraft, basically a hopped up version of the American F-16.

The Supermarine Spitfire is, in my mind, one of the most beautiful planes ever built.

I have, over the years, collected posters, models, pictures, and books about the Spitfire.  If I were to win one of those huge lottery prizes I would buy or restore one and learn how to fly it around.  One thing I never realized, however, is that it is actually a jet.  Maybe I was fooled by the propellers on the front of the plane.  Maybe I just didn't pay attention.  Today, however, I learned from the Associated Press (via Fox News), that it is actually a "fighter jet".
