i think its the zhuk my friend, it would make sense. 🙂
talking about books
i dont know where to post this
its about a russian book, it was translated to spanish as
“la barrera invisible”
or the invisible barrier or something
it was about russian test pilots, such as Alexei Grinchik, and the tests of the Mig-9.
it was a wonderful book
and i’d like to find it again
in english or spanish, i dont care
does anybody knows about?
thanks to all for your time.

hey hyperwarp…:)
man your detail about the APG-77 was awesome, sob! what a radar!:eek:
i wander how much will it cost once it comes into production,
…i also wonder how much does the PERO antenna costs and the Zhuk MSF, sure they arent cheap, but i’d like to compare against the 7 millions price tag i’ve heard about the RDY
man congratulations, hyper. 😉

i believe that the swivel gearbox is already prett heavy, but sure they’ve calculated that…
maybe some more estructural armour or reinforcements maybe to survive AAA or something due to its posible proximity to the battlefield.

😀 😀 😀 it seems to be a stealth gear:D 😀 😀
i love your avatar charlie eco (good old jimmy hendrix) i love “voodoo child” 😎

exactlywhat i’ve said, only in better english
the name of the game is TACTICS and only well trained soldiers can get it. (besides the crappy weapons the argies had)
i’ve met a few argentinian conscripts from malvinas (or falklands?)veterans, all the knew was to march very nice, fire their weapon and obey orders to the letter, good for WW1 or before, but useless on modern warfare
Camaro 😉
the cadillac of modern helicopters.
i believe we got them also here in Canada but i haven’t seen them yet
Camaro;)
lets just remember that alliances sometimes change, for example…
osama bin ladin for ronald reagan was a “freedom fighter” as well as the terrorists called contras in nicaragua, the only diference being, the contras didnt backfired at the us. as the bin ladin’s gang just did. 😡
Camaro
another thing to consider is…
a force of poorly trained conscripts is no match against professional soldiers as it hapened again and again and again
(i`m talking infantry)
what was the ratio… if i recall,it was 2000 britts against 10,000 argentinians, please correct me if i`m wrong.

😮 😮 😮
what kind of secret mission? brazilian intel gathering on peru? non sense, there’s nothing of interest there, unless it was a combined anti-narcotics stuff, i’ve never heard about that, what was it all about? any info? please…:confused:
Camaro.
it also happened between 2 Mig-29 in russia, the man forgot the guns armed (it was a guns kill) and shot his bud, the poor man ejected and the wonderful K-36 saved his life:D
