Thousands of V1 and V2 rockets falling on GB did not change anything at all. Attacking GB with string radar equipped air defence would not be so easy. All polits which were shot down would be lost and training pilots for Me262 was very expensive.

Well obviously its not Hitlers fault. Kill ratio is not necessary a decisive factor. When you are doing escort mission your kill ratio will be many times lower than when you are in free hunt mission. Yet you can do much more important job escorting bombers. As I said Me262 was not suited as...

Hitler ordered to divert Me262 into bomber in September 1943. So obviously this decision could not influence what happened in 1942. The main problem of Me262 were engines. Germans could not made them reliable enough and produce in good numbers until 1944. Besides it was 5 times more expensive...

You are wrong on many levels. 1) Me262 could not enter massive service before 1944 in any case. 2) In terms of quality/price there was no any serious advantage for Me262 over piston fighters. Me262 was faster but piston fighters were much more agile. Me262 could stay little time in air and...

According to UN resolutions Lebanon must disarm Hezbollah. So you can't throw stones living in glass house.

I am talking what happened after he attacked Russia. What would happen if he did not attack is mostly political question and too speculative. Thanks to officer experience they knew what kind of equipment they need to order.

They had no chance. Allied advantage in resources and manpower was overwhelming.

When we compare WW2 armies virtually always discussion goes to comparison of tanks. There are thousands of threads and videos comparing tanks, their numbers and quality.... But we should not forget that artillery played not less important role than tanks in the war, probably even much more...

F-35s caught by Hezbollah TV over Lebanon in rare operational flight A photographer for Hezbollah-owned TV station Al Manar tweeted photos of the advanced fifth-generation aircraft flying over Lebanon. By JERUSALEM POST STAFF JANUARY 25, 2021 20:00 Israeli F-35s are...

Very interesting comparison based on pilot experience. F-35 annihilates everyone in terms of RWR and ECM. In radar it annihilates the F-16C and on pair with heavy F-15E. When in comes to maneuverability F-35 is very good at low speeds and close maneuver but somewhat losing in sustained turn...

Namer heavy APC with Trophy APS:

I pay about 80$ a month for Internet + cabel TV (wife watches it) + line telephone (no idea why i need it).

Stealth does not make you immune, it just make detection range reaction time and so on much smaller.

That happened because Americans became overconfident and careless. F-117 was flyng at same route at same time for 3 days in row.
