Wow, what a POC.Tell me about it...although, after 6 months, I still enjoy hearing them in the circuit at Hill AFB. Didn't realize how much I missed the sound of freedom.
I thought this was an interesting overview of the state of Russia's aviation industry prior to the invasion of Ukraine.
Why do Russia’s Su-75 Checkmate and Su-57 have visible screws and rivets?
In 1990, the Russian aviation industry was divided into four agencies: Ministry of Aviation Industry, Ministry of Industries, State Committee of Defense Industries and Ministry of Defense Industrie…www.globaldefensecorp.com
Wow, what a POC.
Ha, yes sir. That aircraft is a certified piece of crap.I presume you mean the aircraft?
Have you seen his video of his sound effects?
It's the shortest video in his library. He's also available for weddings and Bar Mitzvahs.
Yeah, My understanding is that the -57 is low-observable from the front, but from the sides has a typical radar profile. Color me underwhelmed.
Chris at MAH has this video on the Russian air service which I generally agreed with.
It's from eight months ago so the opinions aren't colored by events in Ukraine. ETA: the Su-57 and stealth comes up at around 11:35.
I still don't like the F-35. It's too obnoxiously loud damnit!
Indeed. The Su-2 could do that, and with an internal weapons bay that the Su-34's designers forgot.Their 'best' strike aircraft - and it primarily strikes targets with sticks of dumb bombs dropped by Mk 1 eyeball
I wasn't a fan of the X-32 - you got vertigo sitting in that damn cockpit!
I was talking to a guy at the office the other day who was on the X-32 program back in the day. I'm glad I was never on that program.
Hey now, the French aircraft are better than that!So ugly it deserves to be French.
Grandson of
That's why it's smiling.Only because they didn't have any mirrors in the house where it grew up.
Club sandwich ? Wood or iron ?Whenever I am at Hill we curse the 35 because it.
It is nice enjoying lunch at the Hill AFB Golf Couse Club House and seeing them fly around. The only thing cooler is sitting at the Club House at JB Hickam-Pearl Harbor watching the F-22s take off over the water while enjoying a club sandwich.
