Very impressive.

Pretty looking jet. I wonder how it will look with a Slammer up the tailpipe?

[Streaker]

Much like an F-22 with an AA-12 up its tailpipe.

The Indian Airforce has had great success with its SU-30s. It has kicked some RAF asses last year, and some American (F-15s) asses the year before. It is unknown if it would have the same results against F-22s. The stealth factor is a huge one to consider.

The F-22 has already demonstrated that it is invisible to the doppler-monopulse radar of the type the Adder uses.

Try again.

Yep, the invinicible MiG-29 survived the last Iraq war by being buried in the sand.

Pretty much like the SU-27 flanker with a couple of add ons.

Canada will need to replace its CF-18s. It should get one, and compare it against its counterparts. And purchase the best overall bird.

[Red_Eye]

Theres an Idea. Buy russian made fighters bend the U.S. nose out of joint.I bet it would way cheaper and we could build them better than they can.
The choice at the time was the F/A -18 or the F/A-15.
The F-15 had a better range which was more suited for this country. The choice was made by his truly P.E.T.
Never trust a politician for military needs.
My preferance for the time was the F-14, the latter model was ground attack capable.

Sorry saw top gun one too many times
