Of course, I’d say Russians ar starting to fall behind in a lot of fields, cuz they just don’t have the money. But they are still not that behind.
yes it is
Canada will replace its F-18s with JSFs I guess.
I know one interesting fact regarding different fuels, I know that Russian Su-25s, a very rugged aircraft designed to operate from anywhere, it’s engines can also sopposidely run on some sort of alcohol too.
Doesnt the C-27J use the same engines as the later C-130 upgrades and the C-130J?
Not very advanced and its powered by a turbojet engine actually, the same of the latest J-7s I think. On option, Guizhoi has said that it can wire it for a radar and BVR missiles to exporting countries(the trainer version of course). So you’d have a cheap trainer with BVR capability lol.

F-35 Phantom III
Where is the Hellenic navy the weakest compared to the Turkish Navy and where is it much stronger?
Sad, nothing of the weapons or radar or engine or structural upgrades. Still the same old crappy Mig-29A
