    I was not aware of this variant of thecMig29. I thought that Muscovite Naval forces used Sukhoi,s ?

    Edit I just checked and the KUB 29Mig variant is supposed to have quadruple redundant fly by wire controls and better lift characteristics..

    But hey as we say in the USA. these days -TRUMP HAPPENS!

    But it's laughable. Then that means Obama humiliated himself, as if you are not able to control the red line which you draw - don't draw it. Had Putin to abandon his own independent policy simply because... because of what actually? Because Obama is the president of the USA and he drew some "red line"? So what? It's incredible thinking.

    I can remember numerous cases when some people insulted and tried to humiliate Trump - but that doesn't bother you too much, does it? Those people who called Trump a buffon, a clown, a dangerous populist, a racist, a chauvinist and so on and so on. Famous politicians, MPs from the USA, Great Britain, France etc., respectable newspapers, TV channels, journalists, all this MSM. Today many of them are deleting their twits rapidly, the same as FB posts and blogs, but yesterday they tried to bite Trump and used very bad words.

    I expect you to blame those ones who tried to humiliate Trump with the same furiousity as you have shown on Obama's case.

    heh, yeah, it was not smart of Obama to draw that line, I agree, but Putin, wheter intentional or not, did humiliate him.

    all those things you said of trump are true.

    What's up with you and this obsession with running down Russia? Seems a bit pathological.

    From what I understand, Russia made a choice after the end of the cold war, that given their resources they could not compete with the US in a traditional fashion. So they had to be smart and spend limited resources in smart and efficient ways. Since they have no plans to conquer western Europe they needed a defensive force, and put emphasis on missile technology, spending their money there. They needed to modernize their military because of the movement of nato forces towards their borders with no good reason behind it, unless they wanted to threaten Russia. This was after Bush Sr had promised that NATO would not move to Russian borders, and after russia was turned down in joining nato.

    But to listen to some people Russia is gearing up to conquer western Europe, another hitler and Nazi Germany. This is the most outlandish story ever created and one has to wonder why it is being done. What drives it? Is it because Russia will not relent to western elite vampire capitalists? Who are striving for hegemony? Is it because of china and Russia looking to create a competing currency to the petro dollar? AH, that may be one of the reasons. Look what happened to Gafafi when he was working on a gold back currency for north Africa which would be needed to buy his high quality oil. Got a bayonet rammed up his arse and died a horrible death. Which by the way Hillary cackled like a witch when she told the story of his death.

    I just hope americans will not swallow the MSM propaganda about Russia and do some research yourself to find something closer to the truth in regards to Russia. For you are being sold somewhat of a ruse. You do not know the whole story and the different context. Nor even the facts. This yields garbage in, garbage out.

    No one here except other Euros are buying into your Russia bashing. You, Gaius, and notme do provide no small amusement though. My favorite news today was Obama saying that Trump will be staying in NATO. Now why would he say that? Or feel the need to talk about that? As IF Trump is listening.... Hmmm

    Crikey thats a bit of a troll isnt it? We all know Assad defines his civil war opponents as terrorists and that Russia is there to play pansy to Assad. Don't conflate the rest of the worlds definition of terrorism in this context with Assad's LOL. Everyone but Assad and Russia all mean ISIL, and you know it.

    We started this tiff with Russia by butting into their backyard, and since we had very bad leadership they managed to out maneuver us. My position is that we learn a lesson from this, which is to secure a more favorable world position by aligning with ascending nations, not the walking corpse Europa.

    The Al Nusra now would be quite too scared,
    they will not be stricken by missiles/bombs only but also with the fighter plane itself.

    Russian official sources reported that the plane crashed while landing. Cause - equipment failure. The pilot alive and well and this is important. What else is there to discuss?

    It's funny to watch the whining wimps of NATO. The US is still not out and not even talking about it, but euros servants of USA had soiled pants already :roflol: Swede, don't be afraid and don't panic! Russia is not going to crush you, as USA had crushed Iraq or Libya.

    It is important that the aviator is all right. Empire has a lot of aircraft. Do not worry.

    The MIG-29 entered Russian military service in 1982. It's a 34 year old airplane, and despite it's age is still going strong.
    The first F-35 rolled off the production line in 2006. To date it hasn't flown a single combat mission, has failed most of it's reliability tests and is basically a $1.4 Trillion Yugo with wings. :roflol:

    Quite frankly, I don't even care what Trump says about NATO anymore. I don't think we should be waiting around until Trump decides to backstab us. (*)(*)(*)(*) NATO, we should start building up our own EU army.
    and then in four years you elect a democratic president, who reverses course yet again. schizophrenic USA isn't a country that makes a reliable ally, either to the EU or to Russia..
    this particular plane was a new version of the mig-29

    What's happened?

    Well, for the last decade or so what' happened is that the US & NATO have become the agents of perpetual war and destruction. They have become hated in much of the world, as Barack The Gunslinger has spent his entire 8 years in office killing innocents at weddings and funerals with his drones. You might not be sufficiently observant to understand this, but the rest of the world is.

    And in the meantime, as demonstrated in Syria, Russia has become an agent of, to one degree or another, justice. Relatively speaking, the Russians have become the good guys. Strange but true.

    Been to 11 countries in the last 6 months and that is definitely NOT the global sentiment about Russia, nor America.

    Fighters crash all the time. The idea that a country should be embarrassed because something that is inevitable occurred is absurd.

    I do find it amusing that a joker from a country so pathetic that they have set up a "mansplaining" hotline is attempting to belittle a country that could crush it on a whim.

    Swedish women get hotline to report mansplaining
