Lots of folks here felate themselves over Russian technology. The Fulcrum was thought to be superior to the F-15, turned out to be propaganda. Yes it has better speed and climbing ability, but is aviontics and weapon systems were crappola and it had a history of maintenance faliures and poor quality which kept it out of the pantheon of great fighter jets. The Russian did'nt get that the days of the dogfight were over. But hate America crowd and defense industry whores kept feeding us the line that Russian technology was superior to our own.

They said that in the skies of Vietnam as well.
