You know, what I find to be laughable is that Russkie fan boys believe the bullsh!t that they spew!! "blah blah blah, our A/C can shoot down an F-22 at 1XX km away with a .22 cal rifle.." The poor believers "wow! I cant believe it! Su-30 blah blah blah is so amazing!" here is an example of fine russian story telling: http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/vancou ... oly,221408

Given the fact that Putin himself is involved only says so much about their credibilty.

In dog fight the Mki holds an advantage, it has true super manueverability.

As does the Raptor, which has higher sustained/instantaneous turn rates, T/W ratios, ceiling, acceleration, etc..

Now when the F-18SH block 2 could get a gun kill on the f-22 i am sure the Mki wont have any problem.

If you'd care to read about that "gun kill" you'll note that the F-18 pilot violated the ROE for the exercise, and the F-22 pilot had already disengaged. Hardly a conclusive outcome to say the least.

I recall vividly when the Su-35 was shown to the public many children on various aviation sites were claiming it could easily take on the F-22 as the Russsians had said it was more than a match for the F-22... Rolling Eyes

I still laugh to myself about it because if the Flanker was so superior to the F-22 than why on earth were they pinning all of their hopes (and dreams) on the PAK-FAG?
Laughing

LOL....wasn't the Flanker supposed to be a match for the F-15....

How about the F-15 ACTIVE vs a non-stealthy F-22? Wouldn't this be the exact same argument? Or how about the F-102/105/106 vs the F-15? Same argument again?

Oh man, I know this is off topic but man, that had me laughing hard!

What the hell is a "Platinum Medal"?!? Plushenko wins the silver medal at the Vancouver Games but somehow he thinks he deserves this all-elusive "Platinum Medal" so he awards it to himself?!?

Vanity and delusion at its finest.
