| Strong Bad Fans
Looks like someone at Lockheed/Martin has a sense of humor. This is a photo from their F-22 information website: http://www.f22-raptor.com/technology/images/weapons.gif

| For once I am with you Inq, so I did a quick search on what the h3ll they were talking about. Strong Bad is a cartoon character that looks like this: http://mikezornek.com/blog/images/strongbad.gif
I will admit that there is a surprised at the resemblance myself although I think that is just the way the artist's rendering appears. The F-22 has an unusual raised console with a large HUD display mounted on top. That and the harnesses and G pad on the headrest do look a lot like the character. You can see a real life F-22 head on here: http://www.globalsecurity.org/milita..._020614_09.jpg and a better cockpit look here: http://www.globalsecurity.org/milita...-22-400206.jpg
It really does look a lot like the cartoon in FTH's picture though so maybe someone decided to have a little fun!

The people that created the StrongBad character are a short drive from the Lockheed/Martin plant where most of the F-22 is assembled. Attached is a zoom-in of the photo; that's definitely StrongBad.

| Luckily for those of you who hadn't seen it, I downloaded it.
Here it is. (Completely unedited, except I cropped maybe 2 pixels off the right side, and made it into a RGB color picture, and saved it as a jpeg, because it was too big) (But mostly the same)
