I humbly disagree. Pax Americana won't stay here for centuries. Not in the dominant form as we see it today. It is true, 20th century was probably the most radical in human history. End of the first cold war and collapse of Soviet union marked the finest triumph of Pax Americana, not only in...

F110 is around $5.5 millions for USAF. Don't know how much they charge for export.

How so? And I am pretty sure a capable fighter will be able to see & track TB-3 beyond 100km. At best I can see its RCS being 0.5m². The big spherical FLIR will contribute significantly at RCS increase IMO.

Tbh, paying 25 billions for 100 F-35 (with full package) is way more worth it than paying 20 billions for 40 F16 and 79 upgrade kit. (With full package)

Right, Anatolia is in Western Europe. The reason why other Western countries mess around with their PKK/YPG policies is solely because of US. If USA didn't had the back of these entities and CENTCOM didn't actively trained them and armed them, you think other European countries would dare...

Good question. But i can't give you source on something that didn't happen yet. Everything is in early stage for KAAN, we can only make optimistic predictions for now. despite having previous expertise and experience in developing 5th gen fighter, it took one and a half decade for Lockheed...

KAAN need to fly first, enter serial production with domestic engine and meet TuRAF requirements urgently. Export is a secondary priority. Besides, KAAN is at least a decade away from reaching F-35's current block 4 level sophistication. Those countries that has F-35s like Italy & Japan, could...

You do make some strange excuses for Israel while claiming to be neutral. In many instances, Israel deliberately killed civilians in order to get Hamas members or even just based on suspicion. If somebody killed one of my family member and then run to some place and take civilians there as...

I think we should refrain from referring to controversial religious texts in a geopolitics/conflict thread. (Besides, the alleged text is specifically about the Jews who would be follower of anti-christ. Not all for them. Which is a whole another matter.)

There isnt any sustainment infrastructure left in gaza.

Let's wait for verification.
