This shows it is down to the sheer brilliance of the the pilots and not the actual aircraft. It seems the US is still in its teenage years when it comes to tatical planning and execution of military attacks and based on this I dont hold up much hope of them winning a war against China. Anyway why do most americans feel they have to verbally attack China or any other country which rivals them. The answer I suppose is Fear that they will no longer be the biggest and the one in the lime light. Fact remains that America is a relatively new country made up of europeans, africans, mexicans and oh yes asians, and in terms of starting wars and invading countries, I think america has had troops in someone elses country ever since, well ever since they took america from the native ameican indians and they have the cheek to call China evil etc. I rest my case.

Light, Fast, good maneuverability, and quick reloading time. I myself am more of a shock kinda guy so I gotta go with the Abrams, Challenger, and Leopard. I prefer lots of armor in lots of places, and good firing capability. I like the idea of the leclerc, but at this time I just can't see it unless it's gonna play into the theatre of eastern europe or middle east because of it's need for room to play. all around good tank though. just not my cup of tea. honestly it is to me a good raider’s tank.

Chey-Tac does not build the weapon. They assemble parts that various manufacturers produce. Lawton makes their barrels and dies and they don't meet specs. The rifle sent to me and my neighbor had major headspace problems, 21 thousands off. The dies supplied for reloading didn't meet specs either. When Chey-Tac was contacted about the problem, their response was shooter error or a bad sight picture. They would not even look at the rifle when it was hand delivered to their corporate headquarters in Arco. The excuse for the headspace problem was that the rifle was built loose for the military so that they could shoot it in the sand and dirt. Major pressure problems and the staff couldn't care less nor would they except that the problem was with their product. They pointed fingers at the brass manufacturer. The only bright spot that came out of this debacle was dealing with Jamison Intl.. What a class operation. Arco had been blaming Jamison for bad brass. Arco has no quality control and has no clue how to fix their problems. Jamison Intl. asked for the weapons (2) so they could get a look at them. Jamison milled the barrels and made the weapons tight, no more pressure problems. Then Chey-Tac tried to take credit for fixing the weapons when they made no attempt to even look at the rifles. Then I submitted expenses to Chey-Tac for my trip to Sturgis so that Jamison Intl. could check the weapons. Three months later they send me a check that is no good. So if you want to spend a ton of money and get no satisfaction and get nothing but B.S. from the "factory" at Arco then go for it. Do not consider any product from Chey-Tac.......buyer beware. I can not stress enough just how messed up this company is. Deal with another custom rifle manufacturer if you want to shoot the 408 round. This is only a small part of my experience with Chey-Tac, it only gets worse. They have no concept of customer satisfaction nor quality control. Do not waste your money on this piece of crap rifle.

Of course the US and the latest NATO and French fighters maybe better. But if the quality of the aircrafts are almost even then the biggest winning factor is the pilot.

I found your long comments are quite funny to read and to certain extend, I don't really share your view especially pertaining to what you've mentioned above. Like you said, Chinese people are being brainwashed by the government. Maybe it is truth. However, I believe the Americans also being brainwashed by their government too. What you were saying the US Military engaging a war in the Middle East is due to human rights reason. I found it very difficult to believe. Don't you ever accuse your government did it just for "OIL" reason? Not to mention after the US had bombed the Iraq, most of the contracts for rebuilding the city went to US firms. Sometime when I think about it, it's in fact a very good business strategy for the US. First, the US used up all their almost-expired and some newly untested ammunition and weapons for the war as live testing purposes, and best of all, the Kuwait and Iraqi government pay for every bullet its fired. Second, after the US destroyed their cities, major infrastructures and food sources, and they got the contracts to rebuild it. Third, the new government need a new force to defense its country, so the US provides the military training to its locals, and at the same time, the US can sell them those old and not-so-effective (after the testing) weapons that was supposed to recycle it. Finally, if the new government unable to pay the bill, they can settle it with OIL. What the world call it "Oil for Food" program. OK..maybe I just made up the story. But going to the war for human rights reason, I really need time to digest it, unless.., US is willing to send a troop to Myanmar and rescue this poorly treated opposition leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, which she has been fighting freedom and democracy for her people since the 80's. The fact is that, the world leaders recognized her afford and admire her courage to push for democracy for her countryman. Therefore, for her afford, she won the Rafto Prize and the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought in 1990 and the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991. But sadly, when her and her party's members were locked up and tortured for one reason, Democracy and Human Rights, no nation, including US which has a strong belief in human rights has done anything to help Myanmar's citizens and her. I guess the truth is, Myanmar does not have any OIL field. If US really going to start a war with Myanmar's government, it will not be a good business strategy as it's a zero return investment.

Why bother when you can make money out of them and sell them cheap shit?" a guy is funny Said : "without us china would loose a crap ton of there wealth because who else is goin to buy there crap" Well, many people here like to criticize or making fun of China for making cheap products just because China now has the capacity and capability to produce similar products with lower cost as compare to their countries. My point is that, China never force any American, European, and Japanese companies to set up their production plans in China. All these firms have done so for one simple reason: Lower Cost, Higher Profit. Sadly, the saving on lower production cost did not pass it on to us, as a consumer. Instead, it went to bonuses for the CEOs of the companies. The point is that an identical product whether it is made in China or US, we as a consumer still paying at the same retail price. One good example would be an identical Ralf Lauren's Polo Shirt that is made in China or US or other countries, still carries the same retail price tag (if you don't believe me, go and check it out yourself). You can never find it cheaper just because it's made in China. As for China factories that made that shirt will never benefit in term of dollar on whatever price Ralf Lauren decided to sell. So, for that China factory, it just got a decent paid based on its production cost plus a bit of profit. In another word, what ever profit it generated due to lower production cost is still go back to American firm in this case. So it does not make any sense to making fun of China made products because China can make things cheaper. That's why, before you start saying words like "cheap shit or crap", please think twice who are the one to decide to outsource or set up a production in China and who are the one that kept all the saving to themselves. One day, there will be another country able to produce goods cheaper than China, and I can tell you now, all these firms will shift their production lines there. So what are you preparing to do? continue to make fun of that country? Harry Said : “Also, the Chinese have realised that destroying the USA is a stupid idea.

In my opinion, even though China's economy is growing rapidly, I personally do not think it will able to dominate or overtake the US market. Basically, US and China are completely two different markets. However, I believe China can be one of the strongest countries in the world when its internal economy can be sustained by itself locally without heavily relying on exports.

This perfectly relates to an argument I was having with a friend the other day. We were talking about pistol hunting and the whole general "Concealable Weapon" topic. He started this by saying "Why would someone use an M9 (or any general 9 mm parabellum) over a M1911(AKA any .45 ACP)" I said: "Honestly I would use the Colt but all pistols can kill someone regardless." Of course we somehow wound up debating the round effectiveness of any pistol round. My bottom line argument is that if any kind of bullet can go through you then you're probably not going to come out of it alive. Of course there are pros and cons to using either of the rounds but they will both get the job done. 5.56 IS a lot weaker (based simply off size) than a Soviet 7.62 x 39, but it doesn't mean its any less effective it shoots further, more accurately, with less recoil, and allows for a faster rate of fire. I have never shot anything with a 6.8 or 6.5 round so I cannot say anything about it. Thanks for the great myth disperser! I think this is completely true.

I believe they had some MIG 25s and 29s too. Did they have "air superiority" in the last 2 wars???? Let me answer it for you. NO!!!! Russia makes some fantastic jets, no question, but I am still yet to see a PRODUCTION model capable of competing with the F-22. Don't forget, the F-15 is UNDEFEATED in air to air since it's inception in the early 70's! DOES ANYBODY DO ANY RESEARCH???????? Talk about shooting from the hip eh???? MIG-21?????

It gives us an advantage with the use of electronics and creature comforts. When you need something to distract people and cause rumors and fright at air shows, you send a few Raptors and hover around displaying maneuverability and peeks at weapon bays. Whilst the world is busy deciding how to take in the information and defend against it, you send a UAV, maybe even a Raptor flown remotely by some 16 year old, pimply Flight Simulator Ace in the middle of a hole in the ground in the middle of the US. "Fox one!" and anyone, anywhere in the world is toast. The pimply kid sets an auto return program, which is good, because he has to go to high school in the morning. You have suggested that the Raptor has measures to help protect the pilot, only if the pilot is in attendance. We (The USA) have air superiority. It comes in a hundred different forms all of which are UAV's. From reconnaissance to strafing, the UAV is where its at. Look at the tomahawk, that's 30 year old technology. Multiply that by extreme advances in pitch, roll, yaw sensors, GPS and processor speed and reliability and you come to a very serious advantage for UAV's air superiority. Not to mention saving human/civilian lives. Humans are being removed from the cockpit. We, are the week link in our technology. An F-15 or F-22 pilot is only required to be able to consciously handle 10 G's. All of the Mil Spec componentry is, and always has been, able to handle at a minimum 70 G's. Get the picture? The F-117 has been retired after only 11 years in service? The Raptor is a show of force, not an act of force. Give it 10 years, it will be retired also. The skies will be controlled by UAV's, enemies destroyed by Chemical Lasers floating around in places you wouldn't even expect. Reconnaissance Missions preformed from miles away without any chance of harm to the operator, using devices that are virtually undetectable by the opposition. Then the opposition is surgically destroyed with precision weapons. Guerilla warfare? We've been playing this game for a few wars now. Technology has come to a point where we are going to be able to end this concept. It is a slow process, but, we are determined as Americans. There is not a country in the world we have not proven this to. -Made in the USA The F-22 is the pinnacle of manned Fighters.

The majority of you played video games whit F-22, and OMG IS THE BEST, it looks SO COOL :))) you make me laugh. F-22 is 50% Fighter 50% Bomber.

Su-27 Su-37 Mig-29 Sniper Mig-21 Lancer (is not good in "dogfight" but is one of the best interceptors in the world) Eurofighter (witch is a verry good plane also) And there are allot more.

The F/A-22 is good on paper, but that is all it has going for it at this moment. The 'Eagle' was THE Air-Superiority Fighter of it's time, and still will be in the US Air Force Reserve/Guard for the next 20 years.
