    News coming from Armenia in the past week or 10 days about a proposal for 8 second hand Gripens for the Armenian Air Force.

    These articles are from 2010, almost 8 years old. No Hinds were delivered to Lebanon.

    No Hinds were gifted to or bought by Lebanon.

    It probably means that if you attach 500 kg bombs on the inboard, your weapons load is full, the outboard can not be used any further.

    I never made it to Axalp, the mountain being too high for someone my age.:( But year on year I have been amazed by the photographs taken at the annual demonstration.
    The Swiss Mirage IIIRS pilots were very good and I think the photograph is genuine as, I believe, does Berkut.

    I thought we were referring to the Lightning photo with the moon backdrop and not the Swiss Mirages 🙂

    It’s not a picture!!! What planet do you come from?

    As long as it’s fake, it doesn’t count as a picture.
    There are photographers who take photos and there are some good graphic designers who make these type of manipulations, most of the time to create good artistic work like this one in particular.

    Wow! The F5 is in excellent condition. Any idea when the pic was taken?

    From that Northwest logo on the 747 and the cars visible in the background, the photo should be at least 20 years old, if not more.

    Completely wrong this time, Etienne

    Is the F-7 still in production or are these upgrades from existing frames?

    The Lebanese Air Force has modified the Puma helicopters with the Aden 30 mm cannons and the Matra rocket pods from the Hunters.

    Why are the Syrians flying the L-39 with to pilots in combat? Any thoughts?
