p.s. Russian “fokkers”? Art…fill me in please!
Every-time you take a dump, it’s not always same, sometimes it’s solid, other times it’s very liquid. Then there are times when it’s Diarrhea from hell and can’t control your bowel movements. So the lesson is that not everything goes the way we want.

I dont want to start a flame war but forgive me for saying
the Russians were the Biggest arms suppliers to Iraq, i guess the
T-72/64/54, the AK-47/RPG’s/Landmines/Hinds/fokkers/foxbats were supplied by the USA and France, please dont put your guilty conscience on the USA and France.Afterall it was the United States that removed Saddam Insane from power, a figure your nation was more than happy to equip during the Iran-Iraq war and then re-equip them in time for the Gulf war.
The French were against the war because they had very lucrative oil deals with Iraq, However the French will no longer theive from Iraq at the expense of the Iraqi people, the United States will do for Iraq what it did for Germany/Britian/France after world war 11
(Marshall Programme), and for south Korea after the korean war.lets compare American helped South Korea/Germany/France with Russian helped North Korea/Iraq/Syria.
Need I go on ?
You forgot to mention Japan, US was the occupying force for 8 years. And look how they turned out.
This post is all kind of lame, because only pilots who get enough training are US and NATO pilots. Those Russian pilots can even afford to get fuel for their planes.
Unless the world have US vs NATO war I don’t think it’s a real competition.
I’ll take my chances with an trained pilot in a F-15 over whippersnapper in a Su-Whatever.
Russians – Can’t even afford to fly their planes
Indians – Can’t seem to prevent themselves from flying into the ground.
China – Have you seen them drive? If that’s any indication, sky will be pretty safe. Unless they cut you off. (Just kidding people, it’s only a joke)
Syrians – Please!
Top Gun trainers in A-4 and F-5 can regularly beat F-14 that just tells you that, no matter how good the plane maybe, the most important thing in the plane is still the pilot.
Before you start to flame me, Don’t take things so seriously!

Hey, don’t be a nitpick, I corrected it. Now delete your post.
Don’t care how many planes Israel buy from US. I just wish they stop selling US technology to China.
Even if it’s developed by Israeli scientist.
Must be running on Windows
FB-22 = FOAS for the Brits maybe?
So USAF can say they have a market already.

of course it is true. The F15 was flown by a PAF pilot. Though I admit our boys at IAF helped him quite a bit, shhoting an AA missile up his ass.
Ridiculous claims like this can only be made by *****. Please refrain from any such claims in the futue. Thanks.
sgupta, I don’t know if you are an Indian or Pakistani, one thing everyone on this forum do know about you is that you’re an idiot.

Thats a falacy (did I spell that right?). Just read IDF-AF combat reports. Close in air combat is alive and well in the 21st century if the last 20 years is anything to go by. Reports of its demise I think are constantly, persistently and wrongly exagerated. Especially when ROEs and politics are concerned.
Sorry, you misspelled it, now take your seat at back of the class. The spelling of the word is FALLACY.
😀
Anyway, you’re probably right, but I think in the future as the technology improves, you will see less and less head-to-head combat.
Planes are getting so expensive its probably not worth taking chances on a dogfight.
Fire the missile and forget it.
But isn’t most of the modern Air combat done with BVR missiles, so dogfights would only happen by chance?
Why the gift? Feeling sorry for invading them to start WW2?

how did it happen ?
The police told the pilot to pull over. They clocked him doing Mach 2 in a Mach 1 zone.
😀
(actually someone sent me that picture, I have no idea)
Well I guess we’ll see if he WM is on the job or not then. 🙂
I guess no harriers on board 🙁
Speaking of camouflages. It now becoming norm again to paint the ships in that fashion. I guess everything stealth is not expensive and latest high tech gadgetry.
They still have the Photoshopped Eurofighter on the website.
Addendum:
My fault, they are pointing out fake J-10 pictures. Sorry
🙁
