Alien Tech! That’s why they got minced by Surface-to-Air!
Americans who think their aviation is alien tech compared to everyone else’s are no different from those who think the T-90M would pummel an Abrams any time of day, nationalistic and blind

The american Navy and Air force are with 40+ years more advanced from anyone else
russia doesnt even have a functioning somewhat modern DIESEL aircraft carrier
china blows up their own aircraft engines
America has about 3-4 trillion $ just in the navy ships and equipment, russia would be bought out 60 times over with the money that US invests into its military
they managed to burn half the country down with no effort
40+ years is just wrong

thats reality, china was never good and russia was in an economic depression for 25 years since the soviet union which wasnt necessarily close to overtaking US anyhow
F-4 Phantom also:
- Was brick until Agile Eagle was cleared for use on later F-4Es
- Lacked built in gun (partially solved with SUU-16 [unsatisfactory] and SUU-23 on F-4C and F-4D) until F-4E
US went all in on missiles in Vietnam but it kind of backfired

what do you thin the top tier air premiums could be for the countries that don’t have them yet?
Nobody has verified capable missiles, nobody has an actual naval power, russia’s airforce is in crumbles because they cant fight with third world countries and china is growing but hell knows what kind of quality they have, buy anything chinese and watch it in your hands just become biscuit crumbs in a couple of days
You are hopelessly biased and fanatic.
The US isn’t magically ahead of everyone else, ignoring the capabilities of a rapidly growing sector like China, a VERY powerful and intelligent aviation industry such as France’s, and the consortium that gave the Eurofighter, can match and in some ways surpass their US counterparts

No, missiles worked very effectively considering that they were pretty much the first ever missiles produced and the Sparrows and AIM9s were miles ahead any other missiles
france doesnt threaten US with nuclear armageddon buddy
whilst they may not have on of the strongest economies if you actually knew anything about economics it doesn’t meet the definition of depression especially for 25 years
Looks like you are overcompensating for something with how agressive you are?
Maybe for your lack of skill in game? Of are you overcompensating for your own age?

How many of them were duds?
Early Sparrows were notorious for that
Not to mention the whole Falcon thing on Phantoms (nothing wrong with missile per se, just that Phantom was never equipped with necessary additional avionics)

the russian gets could hardly HAVE any missiles BAHAHA
So? France can make jets that match what the US can, BEAT the US to Network-Centric Air to Air Combat, with powerful Electronic Warfare signatures, has had IR/Radar guided missiles since basically forever, fielded better AAMs for a long time,
In terms of Aviation, France is a good piece of proof America isn’t magically super ahead of everyone else. China is too.
