Even the turks would rather let the s400s they paid for collect dust than risk getting permanently cut off from the f35 program ๐ Russian claims of their SAM performance are completely bogus
It happened in 2017 in Syria to an f35i a more modern f35 than US has.
Your smooth brain probably also forgot in 2009 China got blueprints of f35. Chunk J20 was literally created using f22 and f35 info.
Also to just understand how technically modern f22 is. It was finalised in 1996 and mostly has tech from 80ties. First multi core cpu was created in 2001. F22 also never had true upgrade because it's hard to upgrade and when US was creating/planing those in 1980 US thought by 2010 US would had 6th gen fighters replacing F22.
And you here think F22 is some magic when Chunk can create CPU's today that are similar to burgers processors from 2 years ago.
Even Iranian can do burgers drones despite them being in short situation. Like you forgot how western media did hihihaha on Iranian drones ?
So wake up cutie twink you were supposed to create and flying six gen fighters and not simp on tech your grandpa created
๐๐๐you really think a few stolen documents means the chinks can replicate the entire tech. Holy shit you're r-slurred. J20 isnt even stealth
bro really bragging about basic iranian drones, burger boomers build rc planes with the same capabilites in their garages ๐ Iran had decades to develop their own shit but the most modern jet they have is still the F14A lmao. They literally try and pay people to steal spare parts from museums just to keep their tomcats flying
You again proving having short memory. Iran shot down a lot of U.S. drones and drones that were new when they were shot like RQ-170 Sentinel was shot 3 years after it was introduced in 2007. Or how many global hawks did they shoot down and those cost more than f35.
China of course can replicate because tech moved since 80ties. If f22 was this good Ukraine would had already got them and won the conflict but you know very well they ain't going to do shit
We were talking about iranian drones, now you switch to talking about burger drones being shot down? Do you have adhd? Try and stay on topic buddy
>China of course can replicate
Yea china can replicate tech so well thats why they're seething about the US blocking nvidia rtx 4090 sales. Thats why they tried paying that taiwanese heli pilot to steal a chinook because they haven't managed to build a twin rotor heli despite the tech being decades old, and we're not even talking about tiltrotors.
So funny how people like u love simping for China ๐ Just shows how you have never even been to the country let alone met the people and the culture there
Iranian copied burgers drones so pooping at Iranian drone is equal to pooping on burgers drones.
nvidia rtx 4090 sales
I think I clearly stated they are 2 years behind and US blocked sales of those because China was going to stop buying burgers stuff when the catch up so it was preventive action.
Chunk chips have 5G now so it's giga low iq comparing tech from 80ties with high tier graphic cards from 40 years into future
Imagine bashing the F-22 while simping for Soviet era hardware (only 22 operational Su-57 were built so far discounting 10 testing units, plus they had 2 crashes)
The SU-57 is embarrassing because it's basically just a Flanker wearing a cosplay outfit like some fat weeb at a convention dressed as JoJo. It has the same RCS as a clean F/A-18 or Eurofighter with worse radar and ground attack capabilities
At least simp for actually cool Soviet shit- the original Flanker is pretty cool in that "maximalist everything" way, the Mig-29 is a worse F-16 but is very pretty, and I love the SU-24 because swing wing interdictors are the Chaddest class of airplane. Plus the SU-25 is so cute and practical.
It doesn't mean they are objectively amazing, or even good, but I still like them.
If Ukraine receives 60 f22 Ukraine will have some advantage for couple of weeks. Because after Russia will have an idea what f22 is and how to fight it. Storm shadow have similar cross section as f35 and they are getting now shot a lot more frequently than when they were introduced similar situation is with ATACMS. So if US will give Ukraine its f22 then f22 will at some point lose its gimmick. If US gives Ukraine 3000 f16 and pilot for every of those jets, that will be a lot bigger problem for Russia.
F22 is also getting super hyped, it was finalised in 1996 and people in 2024 think it's like super high tech that China can't replicate.
>a cruise missile is as hard to shoot down as a fighter jet
Yeah no shit stealth doesn't make you invisible. And no, jets aren't some invincible wunderwaffe. Giving Ukraine a handful of better jets than the Russians have won't make any major difference.
And Russians love to zero in on specific facts
>Muh service ceiling
>Muh frontal RCS
>MUH PUGACHEVS COBRA AND HIGH OFF BORESIGHT R77M
The reason the US dominates the air is because of the tactics and supporting elements they bring to play. Sure, an Su-35 might beat an F-35 in a straight up merged dogfight, but that will never happen because the US would never do little 1v1 dogfights. Trying to hunt down F-35s that are sneaking around sharing battlefield info with F-16s lobbing HARMs at ground based AD, F-15s at 40,000ft slinging a dozen AAMRAMs each at targets 60 miles away using AWACS data, with B1Bs launching volleys of cruise missiles at air bases and strategic air defence sites, all supported by tankers allowing constant deep strikes from every direction is something that no country on earth has a credible defence for and anyone who's stood up to it has basically collapsed instantly.
Russians and the Chinese can cope and seethe about how their jets might be a tiny bit better in a few small and meaningless ways than their western counterparts, but none of that matters because in a real war not a single one of them would ever get within visual range before being destroyed.
Also- the biggest indictment on the Russian "muh tough and battle ready" cope is that the only jet that's ever troubled the west was Mig-25s shooting very complex and long-range missiles, before immediately turning and running for cover in Iraq and Syria, which is a game the west has on lock.
Giving Ukraine a handful of better jets than the Russians have won't make any major difference.
That's pretty much my point
Russian air campaign is very safe, they never leave their safe zones. Russian drones have 100km range so Ukraine can't put any air defence closer then patriot range is 150km. Russian uses su24 and su34 a dedicated bombers to launch fabs 80km+ from the front so safe from patriots. Russian cover those sux4 with longer range AD than patriot and mig31 with 400km range AA so to shot an su24 Ukraine will need to enter Russian controlled zone. Polish/israeli mig29 can use all f16 equipment and have info from patriot and they can't fix this.
>but none of that matters because in a real war not a single one of them would ever
If US could had beaten Russia without getting hit back it would had saved Ukraine long time ago. So now Ukraine just got as much aid as all allies during ww2 and is heading for sure defeat. The one who planned this conflict for Ukraine should legit get some medal he is genius from sanction to price caps.
That's also why their air support isn't very effective. The US would open a massive hole and operate with impunity over the front lines. Russia is fighting like the Syrians or Iranians taking potshots from the backfield since they never developed the ability to dominate airspace
