re: #230 goddamnedfrank
We’re also still flying B52’s and C130s, both first flew in the 1950’s.
Really, the only reason that we’re flying F-22s and the Russians are struggling to build their own equivalent is purely down to funding. It’s not that the Russians aren’t innovative, they’ve certainly shown in recent decades that they still have the ability to match or even beat us. It’s just that they don’t have the raw cash necessary to keep up.
