Meanwhile, in real life in the USAF:
>So last year’s average of 150 flight hours per year, just under three a week, means that most pilots are training to a level the Air Force considered not ready for combat in the ’80s and ’90s.
defenseone.com
And in Russia:
>As of 2012, the Russian Air Force operated a total of 61 air bases, including 26 air bases with tactical aircraft, of which 14 are equipped with fighter aircraft. In terms of flight hours, pilots in the Western Military District averaged 125 hours over the 2012 training year. Pilots from the Kursk airbase achieved an average of 150 hours, with transport aviation averaging 170 hours.

Leo Cox
Yeah, that's on a growing curve
>By August 2010, according to the commander-in-chief of the Russian Air Force Aleksandr Zelin (interview to the Ekho Moskvy radio station, 14 August 2010), the average flight hours of a pilot in Russian tactical aviation had reached 80 hours a year, while in army aviation and military transport aviation it exceeded 100 hours a year.
With all the involvement in Syria you're gonna bet it's more nowadays than it was in 2012.

It's been almost 30 years and all you have to show for it is a new jet trainer and 5 prototypes showcasing inferior versions of modern technology (stealth) or your first implementation of 2000 tech (AESA).
You really have to be delusional in order to think your aerospace industry is not in a horrible state.

You are beyond delusional, stuck in 1947, but that's okay. Be stupid, for all I care, I'm not looking out to tread on your ass. What gets me is that you came to a dedicated RUSSIAN POWER thread to brawl with the vatniks

Never forget. Never forgive. A day will come Ukraine will pay for this sacrilege.

Don`t bother. That`s his job after all. Without such "delusional fucks", normal people may realize in what shit all the US is sitting.
Isaac Torres
Meh, what about the couple of thousand nuclear weapons they had/have kicking about that aren't in the inventory.
Luke Long
Who, Ukrainians? They don't even have money to get new tanks so they had to use Chernobyl ones. What nuclear weapons are you talking about, lol.
Levi Reed
source?
Christopher Butler
Who needs AESA when your going for ROFAR?
Grayson Phillips
You can talk about your ROFAR on your hypersonic stealth unmanned autonomous bomber all you want, but at the rate where you're going (still can't produce a fighter on par with the F-22 which is 90's tech), state of the art 2040 tech won't be reach Russian hands until 2080.

How do I become a pilot?
Brayden Morales
AIM-120D are more than enough when the enemy can't see, target you or know they're being targeted.
You're either extremely misinformed, delusional or dishonest to deny that the USAF and USN will maintain absolute air superiority for another decade at least.
Leo Campbell

>russia stronk!
kek, youre a fucking loser
Jace Adams
Sucking dicks.
Adrian Martin
but not AESA sensor warhead technology regardless
"You're either extremely misinformed," You want me to bring up the SU-57 and SU-35 getting GaN UHF jammers in 2014 when the F-35 or EA-18 has yet to apply same shit past 2020? Your talking about air superiority but I just dont see it other than rely on numbers of aircraft.
Adam Smith
Maintenance costs increase exponentially with those.
And since most airframes date back from the 90's...
Alexander Murphy
>says the country that just slaps panels on a design and call it new
>arh are being used on each plane it needs to just like in murica
>making an aesa radar active before the intended carrier is completed makes sense in your eyes
>clearly cause the american planes dont rely on tvc to make them look good right?
Jackson Davis
at least russian pilots are protecting their own borders... unlike US military that only fights wars for israel and doesn't protect their own borders.

Do you really expect Russia, a frozen 9th world shithole full of /x/-tier subspecies (otherwise known as slavs) to appreciate the importance of pilot training? Not to mention that most of their combat aircraft are cold war relics held together by AIDS, iron rivets and prayer.

"a frozen 9th world shithole full of /x/-tier subspecies (otherwise known as slavs)"
Must be the reason the US used ufimtsev's 3d reflection equation off of 3d objects...Oh how come the head designer of the F-35 bob ruszkowski has a polak last name.....Are polaks slavs? Our friendly eastern european jew Soros is flooding with Europe and the US with low IQ spics, nigs and rapefugees. Face it the western world is a dying world. Compared technology than I realized how far they are falling behind.

Yea, that's mainly due to the Obama era budget cuts.
With Trump era budget, being supposedly the highest it's ever been, it's plausible, and most likely, that it'll fly right past that number.

Is that really that bad? Keep in mind that countries that fly MiGs and Sukhois tend to be third world nations.

German national marking being black makes funny things to thumbnail on certain resolutions. Wings, leading edge extension and hump behind cockpit makes general profile of F/A-18 pretty similar to Mig-29 and Su-27 from certain angles.

>I'm BBC
Yes, it does. Mostly at upper angles. The lower angle where that Su-27 was isn't one, but the angle where that Luftwaffe Mig-29 can be deceptive, especially when image thumbnail gets scaled down. Intakes of both Mig-29 and Su-27 go much further forward, but when image gets downs scaled, that black cross can create optical illusion.
Jaxon Wilson
That looks just like an F.18.
