Ha I remember when russia tried to claim black water was helping the Ukrainians
^ never trust Russia

Speaking of which, y'all see the SU-57?
Neg
Competitor to the F-22/35
But it still uses an engine designed by the Soviet Union
Ooooooof brb guys hide n seek time
Imagine investing billions of dollars into advanced stealth technology, only to fuck yourself over by using a 45-50 year old Engine that has a well-known radar signature and no stealth capabilities whatsoever
F
@CatLoverKid I mean the F-35 didn't do much better right?
F-35 is fucking amazing
not at dogfighting
But everything else?
Stealth is really fucking good when you're not using the VTOL/STOVL.
Also depends on what munitions you're carrying
Speed is supersonic (M1.6), so it checks that box
Tracking
data uplink, sensor capabilities, passive radar, AESA radar, etc are all top of the line
I mean I’d pick speed over stealth tbh
F-35 isn't meant to rely on its own sensing capabilities, it uses MADL to share info with other planes, radars, vehicles, ground forces, etc
Eh
nothing can fly faster than a SAM, so best to make sure you're never spotter to begin with
Lemme know when we have ospreys that are worth a fuck
LOL
Or any vtol
well Sikorsky made that ugly as fuck helo with (I think) Lockheed
Huge waste of time (and life)
ALL ospreys are worth a fuck
Look at that cutie
@GranddaddyAnon Russian S-400 SAM top speed is 11,000mph
@snowman imma stab you
Never said it was fast enough, I was just adding to the convo
dont make promises you cant keep
oh oh I see mb
And I vaguely remember a Merican project that actually did outspeed SAMs
When you University tells you to be more diverse and give back to people
some SCRAMJet can, but that's (as far as we know) YEEAAARRSSS from anythin usable
here's that ugly Sikorsky and Boeing (not Lockheed) VTOL I was talking about
