See, this is your problem. You don’t have to pick a side.
The world is not a white box with ones and zeros, there goes a lot more in answering such a question, hence no point in it.
Mi-4 was literally out the same year bro calm down with your mis-information campaign.
the American helicopter industry was so bad that they had to steal a Hind to reverse engine it to make better helicopters.
1986 KA-50 was leagues ahead in its design, while being not only safer for pilots, sturdier than any other helicopter of the time. Hence why the Russian Mi-24s were nicknamed “the flying tank”
Ok you gotta explain that one, because that is a wild statement.
I mean one side is a media and research landscape made from 32 countries with generally the lowest corruption and highest press freedom in the world the other side is one country with insane corruption and abysmal freedom so i dont really know how someone could not be biased towards one side.
It really depends on how you define inventing. You can throw in early china and Davinci for concepts for vertical flight. The term helicopter is french for a reason. Youve got early italian concepts. The first practical rotorcraft is spanish. The first real controllable helicopter is a Focke Wulf from germany. Sikorsky did the first mass produced. Its really hard to pinpoint exactly who invented it which makes his statemeant all the more ridiculous
I hate to break it to you, but calling someone wrong, doesn’t make them wrong, but please, continue to pull more straws :) it’s very funny
I ask the same of you. You and @H_ngma or @Jεcka couldn’t even confirm a date for dm73. You both pulled different years.
Would they?
Except that isn’t realistic. In that scenario it is likely in favor of Germany for Ground battles at least, the others are a toss up. But there is what 4-5 T-90s per 1 leopard?
They have an even earlier prototype if I recall. @I_MiikaL_I
@MightyBaozi
Can you explain to this man, that THEY haven’t cancelled the procurement of the leo2a8s for Italy? It was literally in the document You sent.
Just as it also says they’re trying to develop their own tank.
If you unironically believe the T-90M is better than the 2A7, or the Eurofighter is worse than the Su-30SM, Then boy do I have a bucket of Ice water for yoh
