Hey stupid, I just post facts here. I don't make US policy. Fact, Putin miscalculated and it's coming back to kick him in the ass. Fact, that pisses you off. Fact, loving it here.

Incomplete ones. ANY fighter-bomber aircraft can carry tactical nuclear weapons; it depends on the weapon not the aircraft.

But since when does a nation protected on both sides by 3,000-6,000 miles of ocean require a 1,800-mile (max) range jet carrying tactical nukes for "defense"?

When carrying nukes the F-35 is a medium-range stealth bomber, not a fighter jet, for invasions launched from forward bases. So let's be clear about its role.


In any case, the F-35 is outclassed by the MiG-31, which was last produced in 1994 but is still in service

As far as you not making policy ... well, maybe its our generals who have miscalculated and are now having to rely on "last resort" weapons.

Look at the three photos. All the armament you see on your precious MIG 31 means it is much easier to detect. The F 35 will have destroyed the MIG 31, long before it sees the F 35. Same goes for Americas' F 22 Raptor. Both American jets have radar equipment that is not detectable when it is engaged. When the Russians use their radar in an attempt to see what's out there, they become visible. Sorry comrade, no contest.

MIG 31



F 35

Sorry Sigs, this list has your vaunted SU 35 at number 7 behind France, China, the European Union (gotta hurt), and US planes.



==============================



It doesn't have the undetectable radar either. It is obvious they copied our design. Must mean their design sucks.

The PAK FA is a good jet. There are only 12 in existence though. They are a work in progress with cost overruns and a lot of technical issues. Same as the F 35 but Russias' partner in financing the project India, may be thinking of pulling out.

Why F-22 Would Crush Russia's PAK FA in Fight ?

The F-35 is an aircraft still in development, as everyone involved will attest, so comparing an aircraft whose capabilities are as-yet unknown to other aircraft with a long history of performance is a cheat.

In any case, the thing that stuck out wasn't the F-35 and its capabilities .... whatever they are ... it was THUGR's fatuous assertion that they could carry nuclear weapons! As if that was some sort of distinguishing point!

I mean, who grabs for a hand-grenade when a simple sharp retort will do?

I'd hate to see THUGR in a police uniform. With that kind of over-reaction, he'd cause his employer millions of dollars in settlements!

The Pentagon Will have brought 404 F-35 Jets within the Next Five Years. Many of our allies are currently buying them as well. Why do you always lie? And you did so knowing that some have been deployed in Europe as stated earlier in the thread.

"supersonic stealth fighters land in Britain to boost NATO and face off Russian aggression. F-35s can reach speeds of 1,200mph and are capable of carrying nuclear weapons."

US to arm Kurdish fighters against Isis in Raqqa, despite Turkish opposition

The Trump administration has announced it will arm Syria’s Kurdish fighters “as necessary” to recapture the key Islamic State stronghold of Raqqa, despite intense opposition from Nato ally Turkey, which sees the Kurds as terrorists.

The decision is meant to accelerate the Raqqa operation but undermines the Turkish government’s view that the Syrian Kurdish group known as the Kurdish Peoples’ Protection Units (YPG) is an extension of a terrorist organization that operates in Turkey. Washington is eager to retake Raqqa, arguing that it is a haven for Isis operatives to plan attacks on the west.

Russia, Syria fume over U.S. strike on Syrian troops

BEIRUT -- A Syrian military official said Friday that an airstrike by the U.S.-led coalition on a government military position near the border with Jordan had killed several soldiers and caused material damage.

The unnamed official's comments were carried by Syrian state TV a day after the U.S.-led coalition said a U.S. airstrike had struck pro-Syrian government forces that the coalition said posed a threat to American troops and allied rebels operating near the border with Jordan.
