How can the US airforce even compete?

>Russian

Actually, that jet is Ukranian. Copy of the MiG 1.44 anyway

The US can't compete since they already won and russia lost this particular race.

By having more than 12 of them

By having much more and much better planes?

>>30163267
By having a plane that performs outside of Ace Combat, which is where your picture is from.

Oh, you mean the jet that the PAK FA looks nothing like but is instead pic related?

>>30163880

US airforce doesn't need to, never will be and Russians know that. Russia and US has strategic nuclear forces to compete. And since PAK-FA will never face F-22 in combat - they build a stealth multirole, machine with a lot of compromises. Not a designated F-22 killer.

>stealth

no

with 2,400 F35s

ameriniggers in damage control mode.

Muh beautiful lady. Never fail to raise my 120mm smoothbore.

To be fair, US has "won" this race. The only way Russian can compete is by developing their radar system and S-x00 project.

>isn't stealthy
>shitty engines
>nothing new in terms of electronics
>so hilariously bad India doesn't even want them anymore
>trying to juggle purchasing them and the caterpillar tracked joke known as the "T-14" when your defense budget is objectively $12, some pennies, and a hand full of bus tokens

You're right, how CAN the USAF compete?

>so hilariously bad India doesn't even want them anymore

India is just a shitty customer.

Also

I think /k/ can all agree that Mig's/sukhoi are better looking than anything else.

Former US airman here. We can't, its all ogre. I got so terrified when I first saw the T-50/ PAK FA that I immediately went to my nearest commanders office and resigned. He understood my terror as he was also terrified, and resigned with me. To this day I wake in in cold sweat at night, every night thinking about this death machine coming for me and my family.

why bother trying to compete with America and NATO anymore, you're reduced to being a 2nd rate regional power. you don't matter anymore give it up ffs putin
