    Air Combat in Syria

    Yeah, I'm not really interested in going through numbers with you. You're typical of the pro Russian posters here in that you live in your own fantasy world made up of ridiculous boasts/ lies. NATO never invaded Libya, unless you include a few teams of British SAS excuating foreigners, nor has...

    Air Combat in Syria

    So, according to your new statistics there are now 10 strikes a day, not 2-3. You're a bit like Gadeshi, aren't you? Not the pro Russian part, the starting off with a big lie, then making the lie smaller/ getting closer to the truth when you get called out on your BS. Don't bother responding to...

    Air Combat in Syria

    I quote you official data from the RAAF, and you reply with a couple of short clips from RT that makes some "interesting" claims. You haven't given me any info, you've given me a small piece of propaganda. And what on earth was the humorous video... How are Jihadi's funny, and why do you post...

    Air Combat in Syria

    Don't believe you about the 2-3 vs 80. In fact, know you're wrong. The Royal Australian Air Force, which only has 6 F18 there at the moment, did 78 combat sorties themselves in Septmeber. That's 2-3 per day and we only make up a miniscule part of the coalition. Not sure if you're lying or...

    Air Combat in Syria

    Once more, for the Ukrainian who seems to misunderstand simple facts. NATO isn't "my" army nor is my home country or land of residence NATO. Why are the Chinese coming to fight in Europe? You're correct about the US being the major power of NATO. It also has 3-4+ other members who are all...

    Air Combat in Syria

    The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan isn't really a good example for the modern world. But yeah sure, they killed lots of Afghani's. I'm not really sure what you're suggesting. Russia's not deploying ground forces to Syria and the capabilities, and soldiers, of the Soviet Union are long gone...

    Air Combat in Syria

    I've stated many times I'm not Finnish, rather I'm Australian. Presumed you'd have remembered that. But, I've been in Finland long enough to know it's history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/44th_Rifle_Division_(Soviet_Union) Which part of the Ukraine are you from? The same part as the 44th...

    Air Combat in Syria

    Our militaries did their jobs in Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan. They are excellent examples of the level of military capability we can apply. Totally, mindboggling out of your league. I know, roughly, what you have in Syria i.e. ~4 Su30's and ~24(???) Su 25's. You have no AWAC's, no refuelling...

    Air Combat in Syria

    Sure, always sunny all the time in Russia and there's plenty of bread and even butter. Political will, direction and unity in the west may be problematic (/pretty crap and quite stupid) but our militaries don't half ass it. When we go somewhere, we go in strength and we go to win. You're not...

    Air Combat in Syria

    :doh: Put it back it your pants... Russia has, what 4 fighter planes in theatre while the west has, maybe, a hundred. Since when have Russian planes been a legitimate threat to any modern western aircraft? 1950 in Korea, sort of, in Vietnam in 1965?

    Air Combat in Syria

    Sure, there are all sorts of legitimate military reason for the daily sortie rate being whatever it is. That's why the source I linked to, The Telegraph, used exclamations marks "" and words like appear in it's headline. The Telegraph, unlike Russian Insider, is a legitimate media source who...

    Air Combat in Syria

    Sortie rate for Russia planes in Syria drops. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/syria/11934564/Russia-reducing-air-strikes-against-Syrian-rebels-as-intervention-fails.html Russia Insider sinks to spectacularly low level of other pro Russian media sources and the Moderator...
