So the F-22 has an impressive pretend kill ratio.Honestly I simply distrust the military industrial complex in the US.

As far as i can tell training contributes a lot...hope it is the same in USA.

Red Flag exercise usually puts blues in favorite position yet i had been reading that F22 engagements usually make sense if Raptor is at disadvantage.
But hell...with American industrial military complex its wonder why you don't have stealth pigeons.
