I doubt we need f22s to dominate the skies over Korea. Why do I have a feeling they are still using planes from the first Korean war?

They had MiG-29's in the 1950's? Well that was a well kept secret, even kept it from the Soviets. Kudos to them.

OK then they probably have mig-29's now. Can a f15 handle a MiG-29's?

Ask a -15 driver.

Look at who lives next door to them.

MIG-29 is very impressive in close combat, especially with a skilled pilot (as always). Have friends I went to training with that fly them in the GAF.

As far as what we need, I like to think this way:

All great Empires should have a superior military force at all times. This entails having the BEST and MOST intimidating weapons (available or imaginable).

When you let your guard down (like we are doing some) is when you become vulnerable (China, Kora, etc..).

History is repeating itself. Why did the Greek Empire fall? Ask yourself that question.

I could be wrong, but I am most likely NOT.

I am curious, what percentage of our GDP do we spend on those able but unwilling to work, and what percentage do we spend those willing to give up everything for Freedom?
