[quote name="MOAB"]Think also about the F-15 which was the allcock until the Soviets could stamp out a clone that had enough inovation to supplant it in the mid 1990's. It begun <a href="http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/f-15-history.htm">development</a> in the early 1960's and was deployed in the 70's. While there a better aircraft flying today, those aircraft don't even appraoch the number of F-15 variants deployed and maintained. Kinda like we have 1000 Ferrari's for every Lamborguini they can deploy. (only with baby and innocent only killing bombs that the BAD USA devoloped to prop up all the dictators that we constantly are the sole cause in the world of. Extra bonus fact: The United States invented Cancer and dead pets.[/quote]
