Also the gear is actually good. Like the F35 got memed to hell and back during procurement but people still act like it’s a shitbox and not one of if not the best planes flying atm. A fleet of armatas getting delivered? I doubt they change much.

i missed the f35 demo but did arrive in time to see the entire f22 demo at the langely/eustis airshow last week. it was loving amazing and i have never seen anything, except perhaps a bird, purposefully move through the air like that. it looked very alien and sick as hell

Welp, Russian strategic aviation frequency just activated and two TU-95 Bears took off from Murmansk. Ukraine's in for some cruise missiles it seems. They don't usually send the Bears from Murmansk, I guess they got spooked at airfields like Engels getting droned and the blackjacks there getting toasted

The F-22's got the latest engine tech and power. It allows a supercruise speed that is essentially previous generations using their afterburners.

An F-22 pilot was talking about this scene and how it has some obvious hollywood aspects to it. But he says the reaction is completely accurate. He's been on both sides in a previous generation and flying the F-22 in battle drills where a 5th gen fighter will do something that seems completely impossible and you get shocked into complacency.

I think we do need to acknowledge that Russian air defense is putting in good work today for the speedy resolution of the war.

Some people say you don't gotta hand it to ISIS but in this case we need to abandon our pride and give credit where it's due.

A conflict-laden couped/occupied belarussian military doesn’t exactly seem like they’d really pose a threat to Ukraine requiring much more than what’s already on the border tbqh, more likely they need russian help

If anything wouldn't Luka suddenly dying seem suss as hell to Belarus, a country that already had not shown the stomach or want for war vehemently already?

You might get a full blown rebellion there, one which Russia is not remotely equipped to handle.

If anything Russia's entire sphere of influence is rapidly disintegrating as everyone realizes how old and worn out the Bear is, and all he can really do is growl at you.

I am currently watching early 2000s (summer 2000 specifically, it's Perfect Cell time) Toonami broadcasts and you are extremely correct (i have hundreds of hours of retro tv ripped to my plex server, commercials and all. Audio/visual time capsules basically.)

Today has become a black date for Russian aviation - two helicopters and two aircraft were lost in the Bryansk region . And the Armed Forces of Ukraine today, for the second day in a row , strike at Lugansk with Anglo-French Storm Shadow missiles.

In Bakhmut, the assault detachments of the Wagner PMC advanced 550 meters . In Khmelnytsky, a base for storing aviation ammunition was destroyed.

At the time of writing the chronicle for May 13, 2023, the RF Armed Forces began a massive fire strike on targets in western Ukraine. So far, we have been able to identify only one hit target in Ternopil


mr girkin, a fourth aircraft has been shot down by friendly fire
