The U.S. should declare war on Liechtenstein. Just to see what happens.

Alrighty.
To clarify:
There will be two variants written for the Lynx in the near future. One is the Lynx RC (Reduced Capability) that will be sold to those nations without the funds or needs for the full F-35/86 system, the other is what I'm tentatively calling the K-239 (project name) "Super Tabby". The Super Tabby will become the AS variant.

I just want a punny cat name.
Lavan Tiri
How about the Seeya-Siamese?
Lavan Tiri
Ew Siamese.
But really, I want to keep the "Super ____" style the Tomcat made popular while still keeping it small.

Super Jaguar, Super Margay?
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri
The Jaguar doesn't fit the style I'm going for (it's a smaller cousin of the Lynx (a big cat) and as such has a small cat name.
Margay...kinda does? But it isn't well known enough to be punny. Thank you for the suggestion though :D
Jaslandia, Lavan Tiri, Yukona
Super Duper :P
Super Penguin
Super Mallard
Super Hedgehog
Super Badger
Super Sparrow
Super Crow
Super Stork
Super Merl

Liechtenstein has the best track record in the world. Its only military action ever ended up with it recruiting one more man (in a campaign that started with 80, 81 men came home) and sustaining no losses whatsoever.
Get on Liechtenstein's level, America.
Moral of the story: Dont fûck with Liechtenstein

Unf, this is serious. I need the name, home address, and eyeglass prescription of the man or woman- nay, the goddamn monster- who decided that the pickled cabbage shouldn't go next to the pickled cucumbers, or pickled asparagus, or picked carrots, but right next to the canned carrots and beans two aisles over. Because you know what would fit really well next to all those cans? Some fvcking jars, I guess. Just sprinkled in, like raisins in a goddamn oatmeal raisin cookie.
