“Superficial. This is a better plane that the F-15, or the F-16, by far.”
My point was that they stole the F-15 tail section technology and stole the F-16 wing technology with ‘STOLE’ being the keyword. ;-)
Better? Nah, they just overwhelmed with large numbers of tanks.
"Their fighters (after 1943) was were superior killing machines that was were feared by German pilots."
Oh, then why did we have to give to them so many aircraft, for which we have never been paid?
"AK-47 is more reliable and way better than M-16( my personal combat experience).Never underestimate your opponent."
Your personal experience is only one opinion. I know people who swear that the M-16 is superior. Whose opinion is correct? I have heard experts say that those who cannot afford M-16s are forced to buy AK-47s because they are so much more cheap. When one buys cheap, one gets that for which he has paid.
I never underestimate the opponent. The main thrust of what I was trying to say was that they steal much of other people's technology. In addition, their philosophy has always been quantity over quality. Speed of production takes precedence over quality.
Your “experts” forgot to mention that most of the AK-47s today are cheap counterfeits. My personal experience is not an opinion but a fact. Had m-16 for five years, long and short ones, Galil and Uzi for some tasks. Even US special forces around the world prefer Kalash over HKs and M-16.Aluminum magazines for m-16 was a nightmare. liked m-203.
That’s a pile of equine organic waste.
