Have any of you thought that maybe, just maybe in a not-too distant future that technology will catch up with both the F-35, F-22 and the EF2000 making any stealth advantage dissappear? It is after all a known fact that every offensive weapon foster the development of a counter weapon, so also with the stealthyness of these fighters!
You bet! I agree 100%! BUT, 'til it happens, enjoy your advantage...

Sitting and watching these endless discussions and  on which aircraft is better is useless, as most opinions are personal and in most cases it is not up to us to decide which fighter Norway will choose.
These discussions are the reason of these forums. Those with the power to decide what will hapen don't participate on forums and, even if they did, they would never disclose this kind of info here...

The military will make that decision together with the politicians. If you call this politics, well so be it. Its all politics afterall when it gets down to it
In my humble opinion, the last word is always from politics and, most times, they don't take into account the opinion of the military - or take in a way which is better for their reelection. No one could logically explain me why Brazil didn't buy 12, only 12 Flankers, while Venezuela bought 24 of them!! Money? Come on... some Brazilian states GNP are larger than the whole Venezuela's GNP... |
