Gosh damn, ratling, can you not just take ONE picture like a human male? How in the hell do they meme this guy like he’s Hitler II when he poses like a 17 yo in front of the Civic her stepdad bought her?
(only really interested because it’s going to be the first time we see hopefully competent pilots take the falcon through its paces against its rightful soviet adversaries.)

All those guys talking about how nazi they are and they can’t drag just ONE guy along to sit behind the camera and yell “FAAAAGGGGOTTTTTT” every time zelynkskyyyyyyyyieyeiiiieye starts doing that effeminate smile pose?
Also what’s the HR lady’s callsign? I’m thinking….”Pad“

Last I saw, the uke pilots are only going to be ready to actually hit active duty after 3 years on the brit’s abbreviated course, 5 on the usual one. And that’s just the bare minimum to be able to start an engine, fly a mission, and not kill yourself along the way. Surviving in combat will be something diff.
Hopefully they just send enthusiastic NATO top gun faggots instead, I wanna see a real matchup, gimme the best both sides have. Just like the armor debate, a field of F16’s taking to the skies silences decades of internet debate, don’t want to hear a bunch of “yeah but the ukrainian pilots sucked they didn’t have enough time they would have won if……” for the next 3 decades

@shedinja It blows me away because early on he at least tried to look somber and somewhat professional, every time he was in public he had that gravitas vibe he was aiming for. Now I’m pretty sure this is a shot for shot remake of Malia Obama getting her Bentley for her Bday 2013

@William_The_Dragonborn Russian fighters are a grab bag, a few high points amidst many low. Overall they’re VERY attention-hungry, manual, and cavernous. People talk about dogfighting and energy retention, but the thing that REALLY gets you killed is when you’re stuck with your head in the box fiddling with switches when a guy pops & locks you from behind cover

@SettlerLife I have no idea. I genuinely feel bad at how the propaganda from both teams have just chipped away at the esteem I held for slavs. I know they have a diff. culture to judge propaganda by, but dammit they’re just aliens to me.
On red team you have weird phonk, nihilism, alcoholism, and a cat fetish against HR-lady-with-photoshop-on-her-iphone15promaxxx “mehmme” energy.

@marlin That’s why I just hope they send mercenaries like we’ve been handing to the chinks. Let the retired top gun IP’s take the wheel, I wanna see the falcons manned by the best they can so we get a real show out of this whole thing.
By now, the russians should have their absolute A-gamers ready to go, the field is set w/ SAMs and early warning networks. this is as close to our WWIII setting as we’ll ever get, so let’s see a real PPV-worthy battle

@Paultron @marlin Yeah, I know because I work with them. They literally do not care about anything but the idea that there’s FINALLY a chance to actually dogfight and ride into battle against their fellow knights, and they’re just dying for coach to put ‘em in the game

@WashedOutGundamPilot @Paultron @marlin Does ukraine even have servicable airbases they can fly the F-16 from? Given how ineffective ukie AD is any F-16s are likely to be blown to bits if they take off from ukrainian territory.
The only way they can get these planes in the air without being blown to bits on the ground is if they fly missions from a third party country. I don’t think the people who really run nato actually want that. Maybe they really ARE that dumb, but I dunno. :shrug_yui:
IIRC Russia also had some captured mercs put to death. Would be just deserts if Russia manages to capture some F-16 mercs and put them to death. These retards want to rush off to war to kill the baddies. Are they prepared for being killed themselves? Or are they so retarded from their own BS that they believe themselves invulnerable?
Woggy's Zeonic Frolicks
@john_rando @Paultron @marlin Keep in mind all our combat pilots are STILL pumped from desert storm, they’ll wax nostalgic about how badass they are for “evading” those anti air defenses and “bombing the FUCK outta SADDAM” (i.e. children, civilian shelters). They have a real attitude that if they were the ones on the stick then the russkies wouldn’t be half as deadly in the face of their considerable skill.
Some of them ARE pretty skilled, at least, you paid every cent of tax in your life just to train these guys at one exercise, course, and school after another. They carry decades of dogfighting know-how….in theory. That’s why they’re just raring at the chance to put it into motion.
For most, they lived in the shadow of WWII aces all their life. Boomers were told they’d have their own great war someday, a chance to prove they’re the same stock of man their grandfather was….but that day never came. Now they see a chance and just want to make it happen before they shuffle out for good

@Paultron @john_rando @marlin “NOT A POUND FOR AIR TO GROUND” and whatnot.
Funny how people will constantly talk about it’s “perfect record”, as if there’ve been all these chances for conflict for anything else to go against it. Might as well say the Abrams has a perfect record too, when you count all its battles against toyota hiluxes around the globe

@marlin @john_rando @Paultron I did talk to one of the ground guys scouting targets back then a while back. it was interesting to hear how he described picking sites and locations, warning them about ones NOT to hit, and watching as they struck the inverse every time.
