Famously common sights in Canada

AXPs are still a thing. The Ukranians would prefer to use these if they could / had them, if only because of higher capacity per trip and better life expectancy. If if youre extracting off the x on a pick up - these just moves back a step. In the world of 20k dead zones bot a bad thing.

You asserted very wrong data. Loaded vs clean is confusing for you i think? The RCAF alert air craft are launched armed. We aren't going to send unarmed air craft on intercept missions. Why lunch an F35 it is carrying weapons seems like a weird question. While certainly its stealth would be...

There's more F35 in Europe alone than Gripens. The advantage is purely giving the us the finger. We need it to be able to kill other planes both in our air space and abroad. We need it to do that efficiently and at a very high win loss ratio. Thats its job. When we say "less effective or...

I think it was more about driving to have actual armour instead of fake shit on live ranges.
