Russian military complex and equiment are as inferior, c-rappy POS as well as other products. You are just victim of that propaganda which supposed to make Russians think they are better than westerners. Then there is American military complex propaganda supporting these lies in order to justify crazy military spending out of our taxes. Get it?
Russia lost USSR militatry power.... seems to me it is good. from 2001 to 2009 Russian air force lost 67% of Mig-29 fighters. Putin is too agressive to have good weapon. Fortunatly he goes on loosing it. Russia is not USSR, but seems to me Russia will be destroyed like USSR.
To bad we can't get anyone in charge of ANY country to give a crap about the average person. You'd be amazed at how similar the average citizen is in ANY country, regardless of what political system is in place. ALL government spends money on BS, it just depends on the agenda of the party in charge.
Obviously Jazda ph is back! No man if it came down to a dog fight between Russian planes and western planes I'd be putting my cash on the Russians , have a look at the su37 on YouTube , it can turn mid air in it's own length , nothing in the west can match that even today, inferior my ###, Russian aerodynamic designs are years ahead of the wests , you shouldn't be listening to us propaganda , even in small arms Russian ak47 is king, we tried American m16 etc during the war and they were inferior , English styer too, more jamming crap, don't underestimate Russian technology don't forget they were your only proper enemy during the cold war with equal technology capable of knocking your ### out of it too
Anything no matter what? AK47? MIG? SUKOUI?SAM missiles? BURAN? ( Russian space shuttle capable of ejecting pilots in a capsule in an emergency, would have been handy in challenger and Columbia disasters huh?) Russia also built a supersonic passenger plane where the US failed, think before you insult people!
Soviet regime was very difficult to understand. It was limited concurention inside USSR and if all military things were in competition with US products (planes, guns, off road trucks, tanks...) all other things made for internal market were of lower quality and of cheap versions. and what a reason was for Russians build fuel savimg engines if they sell oil?
I may be wrong but i think you're talking about military engines? fuel saving engines in the event of war is a great idea, British tanks, trucks etc were powered by petrol because petrol was easier to find at the time in case of war Eventhough a petrol engine doesn't last as long as a diesel ! I'm a big fan of Russian weapons, we used them alot in Ireland during the war,
