Angel Wings

*******************************************************

*******************************************************

Who could have thought there is so much beauty in the sky?? A few decoy flares and the show is on.

A (decoy) flare is an aerial infrared countermeasure to counter an infrared homing (“heat seeking”) surface-to-air missile (SAM) or air-to-air missile (AAM). The aim is to make the infrared-guided missile seek out the heat signature from the flare rather than the aircraft’s engines. (Source: Wikipedia)

   Absolutely stunning. Are you shure these things are defensive intended devices? I mean, considering they look like the Lord himself has just descended.

10. Nicolas, on June 5th, 2008 at 9:27 pm Said:

    yes… sure…. “angel wings”…

    Hope you can say the same if one of that missiles hit in your family’s house.

    Great pictures, really… but don’t say “angel wings”.

    and upon his noodly appendage, praise was heaped and splattered, as if it were even the holy sauce, and the people cried Yay in unison.

    Those aren’t missiles, they are countermeasures to throw off missiles being shat at the plane.

17. jeremiah billy bob cognito, on July 26th, 2008 at 11:34 am Said:

    shat…. lol

18. Robin Correll, on August 19th, 2008 at 8:26 am Said:

    For those of you who have the snide comments about the “angel wings”……Look again, these are not bombs they are flares intended to be a decoy for heat seaking missles! This is how the military stays out of harms way sometimes…..Sheesh people!

    God bless our military!

19. CactusFreek, on August 20th, 2008 at 8:00 pm Said:

    i love it… i could do with some of those on bonfire night or to freak out some frail, timid pensioners when i’m feeling naughty. some of the comments on this page are great….. i like the ones where they think that the sparkly things are missiles and not taking time to consider the astronomical cost, tactical inefficiency and the amazing stupidity it would take to unleash 20 of the fuckers off in millions of directions at once… i would say you’d never hit a target and kill scores of civillians but america seem to be dab hands at that anyway. nice pix by the way

27. kay, on April 2nd, 2009 at 3:36 am Said:

    what the heck peoples!? those are most definitely NOT missiles! i’ve BEEN there and seen that before. they’re flares! most missiles DONT light up like THAT. plus sometimes the military uses those planes for military airs shows and display that kind of show. So i say beautiful pics and they DO look like angel wings.

28. §§§, on May 11th, 2009 at 6:32 am Said:

    ……….. Who ever came up with the idea of angel wings was a truly glorified person for god has shown them the light…and BTW 5,10,and 11…priceless

33. Holy Fuck..., on October 19th, 2009 at 5:15 pm Said:

    Yay for signs of GOD!

34. Aron, on November 1st, 2009 at 8:56 am Said:

    Ugh. They’re not signs of God. They whorls are caused by wing-tip vortices. It’s the same reason planes have to wait before take-off at the airport.

    However, the formations are still known as “smoke angels.”

35. Who Knew Missile Defense Could Be So Pretty?, on November 23rd, 2009 at 3:40 am Said:

    [...] We first spotted this cool aerial phenomenon on weirdomatic. [...]

36. Lolll, on November 25th, 2009 at 1:42 pm Said:

    lol at all the morons thinking those are missiles being fired.

37. Bob F, on December 4th, 2009 at 6:53 am Said:

    When your butt is flying right over the bad guys, and they would love to see you go down in flames….

    Believe me, we’ll take an angel in any form or shape it comes in.
