More than you would think. What concerns me is in a REAL war our city’s and manufacturing base will be crippled, or at the very least our supply lines will be strenuous at best.
Its going to be a lot harder to produce & distribute theses very complex missile systems, assuming we could ever build enough of them to take down an air-force more than 5 times more numerous than our own.
An Iraqi Mig-25 did take an F-18 out with a BVR shot.
There aren't many examples out there. The ROE don't generally allow it.
Are you a zoomie?
