    The guy with the biggest stick wins control

    But to waste so much money on buying these sticks is what gets me. This is why the military got buy with paying $800 for hammers. The amount of money wasted by the Military is staggering. Think of all the military equipment that was left in Iraq when we moved out. They said it would cost more to bring it back home which is BS.

    I would not say that the F35 is obsolete as the pilot training can make the difference in how well one of these planes is flown. But it kills me that our potential enemies already have copies of this jet in service. I get hacked by the someone in China all the time. I use to see all the attempts to get into my computer on my old firewall. Most of them were coming from overseas. I have a relative who was working with the USN Boomers and I think that is why they were trying to gain access to my computer. They are constantly trying to steal information from us.

    you're a **** fool if you actually think the Russians or Chinese have anything that can compete.

    Their radars are no good, their engines are questionable, and the plans the Chinese stole are years old.

    NA......I will take our tech over theirs.....any day.

    I find it AMAZING that liberals have no problem giving money to illegals, and extending SNAP and EBT so they can buy lobster and seafood, and STEAK, and then BITCH about military spending on equipment that actually PROTECTS their sorry asses so they can spout the **** they believe.

    Man, the hypocrisy is STAGGERING.......

    Simply STAGGERING.

    I post a video of a pretty cool airplane, thinking the post is idiot proof......I guess not.

    Later,

    This thread made me think of a few things......When I was in the Army we trained on identifying soviet tanks and we were given stats all the time about their numbers and their newest greatest tank. Of course they have the numbers but we had the bad to the bone technology and equipment. So numbers were just stats that meant zero in real life. A fully loaded M1 with night vision and all the technology could run 45 mph across fields and bumps and decimate enemy tanks left and right. I'm telling you that is one awesome tank and it's even better now. It would blow your mind at how easy it is to handle. I think we proved that over in the sand pits of Iraq.

    One morning while stationed at Fort Hood Texas we get the call to go to Germany on a 30 day training mission so we load up and go. Once we get to the destination we have warehouses full of M1 Tanks ready for battle. We get things in order and start playing war games against the British and their latest tank. Sooooo we start playing and after a few battles we were told to let them win because they needed the training. You see all the tanks had a M. I. L. E. S. System on them...Laser receivers wrapped around the tanks that when hit by a firing laser from an enemy tank would disable the tank and squeal throughout the headsets. Since we were zipping around these slow tanks and firing they had zero chance of training becaus they were disabled. It was pretty funny. We would be told which town and coordinates to be at and since we would get their first we would wait and ambush the Brits! They hated us. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA anyway my point is like George said we hear about others having this and that but I will always bet on the good old USA. Best soldiers, best equipment, best training and a desire to be the best.

    Raptor

    F-35 is a multi role fighter. The F-22 is an air superiority fighter. Combined together they are a formidable duo but in a one on one dogfight the F-22 would be the dominant aircraft. F-22 production was halted in 2011 due to cost and relevant adversaries. The F-22 is predicted to have a considerable advantage in stealth and performance over all other aircraft until at least 2025. Another potential advantage to the raptor is no one else has one except the US Air Force.
