    Sell them the designs to Ares I and V and we should see some fire works. Really people talk about them being ahead in the space race but they have yet to actually get a probe to Mars ,their crewed vehicle only seats 3, and their rocket uses hundreds of tons of toxic propellants.

Carrier landings are pretty much a controlled crash and you need something the absorb the energy of the incoming plane. The arrestor system has as many scary failure …
