I wished I could have commented on that, I would have asked if the author had any understanding of what they were writing about or did they just watch Top Gun or something. geez how stoopid.

There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

This "expert" Lockie...hmmm, rhymes with Lackey. Georgia State University Bachelor of Arts (B.A.), Rhetoric and Composition/Writing StudiesThat certainly propels him into the realm of advanced aviation expertise. He should drop a line to Putin telling him they have it all wrong on the SU-57 with it's internal weapons bays. Geez, don't they know anything.

Yes, well, you see...the Russians don't know anything about U.S. aircraft. When the F-22 pulls up next to them and says, "Turn back or we will shoot you down!" the Russian answers, laughing. "With what, you stupid Amerikanski? We can see you carry no weapons! Ha...we fart in your general direction!"

What a goofy mess of an article.
Most regular folks I would think who aren't even military aviation experts know that if an F-22 shows up on your wing it means business and that it can take care of business. And there is more than one F-22.

What gets me the most about this is that a casual reader will read this and believe it as truth.

I wonder if this clown is related (other than a colossal shortfall in military wisdom) to that Nussbaum guy/gal.
