…including bribery.
These days, the Russians are the best suppliers in terms of available bribes. It is impossible for Mexican officials and officers to extort bribes from American or Western European suppliers.
got proof of these briberies? or is this just speculation?
This is mya favourite:
1Saludo
if it entered service..
but to answered your question:
yes, flight wise it was fine.
but as a v/stol aircraft, it’s thrust for vertical take off sucked.
Ah wells, not like they have too many threats on the Caspian other than Caviar smugglers. Nation wise, Kazakhstan doesn’t have very many issues with any of the other Caspian states except minor border ones with Turkmenistan. The only real issue is between Azerbaijan and Iran, but that’s them and they border each other.
this might have been posted but I thought it was interesting..
pictures of Saira Batool, the first ethnic Hazara woman to become a pilot!

thanks for the pics. Are you from Cuba too?
much ethnic diversity in that pictures and nice clean MiG-29 and 23
F-106X. Supposedly was going to be good for Mach 5 (Hey I don’t write ’em I’m just passing it along).
now THAT’s a good lookin aircraft!
quite honestly, I always hated the look of the Thud, and the Starfighter..
Voodoo is not so bad, looks kinda like the F-4
but by far, I like the the triangular (by every means, even the cockpit) look of the F-102
ukrainian politicians looks far better than berlusconi´s girl
you milf lover
Of course it is.. That is the one on the right..
actually nvm. you’re right. she was cute..but now that i look at her recent pics.. she got fat. nobody likes a fat girl. 😡
Errr, don’t think that is what I would call hot.
that’s not his daughter

anyone got a pic of the galley and toilet on the B-1?
Which fighters have toilets on board? I know many bombers do, for example the B-2, because they have to stay in the air for many hours. But do any fighters have them? The only one I know of is the Su-34. Is there any record of a pilot crapping his pants? It must have happened, when he’s a good distance away from landing but has to go really bad, what else can he do?
I asked SOC that but he hasnt replied 🙁
and yes there was a video of an F-16 pilot crapping in his pants.
must suck for pilots doing long flight hours, like say flying from the US to Baghdad, and needing to take a dookie
er… by the way Berlusconi, should you not change your name and image to Prodi by now….;-)
no way. Prodi is a boring midget of a man. Berlusconi is rich, powerful, influential, and has a hot daughter. 🙂
they’re not going to replace them any time soon.. they inheritted some pretty modern stuff. like flex said.. upgrades will last them for quite some time.. perhaps until the time UCAVs start being practical combat aircraft.
I can see the Su-25 (and if they have MiG-27s) being retired w/o any replacements.. and maybe even the Su-24 (i’m pretty sure there will be many potential customers for those).
To operate Mirage2000 is much more expensive than F-16, F-16 can use missles we have used for years, like AIM-9P4, AIM-9M, Mk-82, Mk-84 etc.
I was thinking of flight hours, i.e data stating the F-15 costs 3k per hour to fly vs the M2K being a thousand less (from some site I read somewhere)
