What Are You Thinking About?

They blame it on pilot skill or lack of. It makes sense to me. It's the greener US pilots who need the training a lot more than the experienced ones. In a real war, it's the experienced pilots adversaries will face.

this makes more sense than "hustling" theory [emoji23]

I went to the base to check out some 4k TVs. While I was walking at the parking lot, an F-22 flew by doing some maneuvers. I guess the Israelis are still in town.

This reminds me of a story by an Israeli pilot, who's a very good friend.

It was the Israelis who taught the French how to land the Dassault Mirage F1 plane. Previously there were many crashes on landing, and the Israelis figured out a way and trained the French and their customers on the technique....

Remember the potent Mirage-Exocet in the Falkland War?

i wonder how "bad" it really was. was it because of "advance" 4th gen fighters beating it in dog fights?
i always thought f35 was primarily a strategic bomber not a multi-role aircraft

afaik the f35 was not designed for dog fighting but for beyond visual range combat

Yes. That is correct. It is not designed for air superiority alone like the F22 but rather different roles like surgical strikes and etc.

The F-35 caught a lot of flak in the past like it's easy to shoot down. But, we saw it do a number of vertical maneuvers that left us dumbfounded. One time, it climbed straight up from near ground level. Then, it tapered off the power until it stood still in mid-climb, followed by it very slowly sliding backward and downward. It wasn't very high either, probably 1500 ft above the ground. It nosed down and zoomed away at low level.

I also saw signs of thrust-vectoring. So, there must be different variants of the F-35 present. Anyway, I don't think the F-35 is easy meat. At least, not anymore.

I wonder how it will fare vs the russian s400 air defense system

Beats me. But, I'm sure US Wild Weasel units are aware of the SAM type.

most likely the israelis would know, based on whats happening in syria

Probably briefing their US counterparts on the Russian SAMs. I think there are a couple of reasons for the recent aerial maneuvers. 1. The Israelis. 2. There will be an airshow in Phoenix not far from here. The IDF already have the F-35. So, maybe they're checking out the F-22 even though it's not for sale.

mebbe they're just practicing.
mebbe the pilots don't really care who buys what, but they want to do the right moves and not cause something to crash, to their everlasting shame.
heh heh.

Parang all in one na.

Imagine having to maintain and keep spares for only 1 type of aircraft as opposed to let's say, 3 types.

Air sup, bomber, and recon.

Big savings for them.
