i got a picture of the indian mig 21 bis before and then after upgraded to mig 21 Bison see how much more modern.
yea thats the one i saw the video of it sorry SOC didnt know when was it.
yeah your right i was only just thinking of the mig at as made on the licesne thing hopefully we make some money on that M-84AB1 sales.
Ok, anything what cant fly at least 1.5M is not suited for an intercepter job. It cant control airspace as it cant even catch civilian airliner. So, we are down to supersonic-capable airframes here. Next, you will need cockpit. Modern MFD cockpit is not only better, its vastly cheaper than previos hundreds-dials cockpits. So, its MFD’s. Next, radar. Now, any radar probably will do, but obviosly modern, but not-so-capable radar would be much cheaper then equaly capable old radar. Espeaceally in maintainance. So, we install modern radar. Next, weapon. Any modern radar will be able to fire modern missiles, so we can buy these as well. But, for training purposes or non-threat targets we can also get some old cheap missilles. So, what we get? Indian upgraded Mig-21 is a good example. Another would be varios upgrades of F-4.
that aint bad idea beacuse i heard the mig 21 bison is equlivent or something to a mig 29A version and i heard they can also use the american AIM-9L
i think also for these countries youd need a fighter also that can handle rough condetions beacuse most of the african countries have air ports for the army on dirt or something beacuse they use migs or f-7s beacuse they can handle these kind of fields. Beacuse on ACIG i heard that a mig 21 landed during some african war in a Haze field and when they found it it wasnet even damaged.
And Djink is right does mig 29s are the first ones every built they were used for a coulpe years buy the Russian air force to see how there newest fighter competed and then they stored them and then Serbia was looking for a fighter to stop the gap and the Mirage 2000 was the serbian choice but the probloem was cost and then the russians offered the mig 29 for take off a bit off the debt and we accepted and they just got it out of storeage and refubished it and they gave to us.
yeah i heard about that thats so gay beacuse i wonted to see that its just one crash that happened at that air show in 1988 in a mig 29 and they didnt stop production id like to see a dog fight if that happended.
well there is a SU-37 its updated version of SU-27M but still the americans didnt accept to duel it.
id like to see a dog fight with a f-22 agianst a russian SU-37.
For sure we need to retire these Mig 21s maybe not the roccenisse planes but we could replace the number with upgraded G-4 to G-4M and Mig ATs.
well i live in Austrlia in Perth and i love near this base called pearce air base and its about 10km’s from my house and they have ussuly fly over with PC-9 Plaitus and F-18 Super Hornets its nice when you see they and hear but sometime there really annyoing early in the morning when you hear there engines when your trying to sleep. And also ive been to a cermoney and i have heard there engines at 300meters from the ground or 500meters.
yeah i heard about that beacuse i live in austrlia in perth and we do have the f-18 base close to us but its a bit expenisve i do belive they have the money but it would save a lot more to upgrade all f-18s and the f-18 will come with state-of-the-art radar.
depends on the pilot and the americans if the updated version of the F-18 Super Hornet so pretty much you can shoot it down it always comes down to the pilot and maybe even what jet proboly a mig 29SMT could shoot it down but that would be a tough battle but id love to see F-22 agianst SU-37.
Id like to see if someone has a recording or some link to a video of a A-10 and Su-25 Dogfight or something.
well Iran has the SA-10 and maybe they should upgrade it and there are those radars that have anti-steath capibilty or whatever they call it and you could proboly purchuse one of those but if they only have 1 SA-10 than its not good on its own so id think theyd might need to buy more.
