Before we going crying the sky is falling,lets make sure this isnt another Mig-25.If you recall in the 70s we were told that the Foxbat was the most feared fighter/interceptor out there.When Belenko defected in 75?76?with one,we took apart,ran it,took it apart,ran it again,and came to the conclusion that it was a complete peice of junk.If you dont remember this story,Im sure you remember the Kursk,which was supposed to be the best around.It sunk.yeah let's wait to cry until russia surprises us with a nuke!
IMHO that is...

I wasnt advocating the ostrich syndrome.I was merely stating that our friends the Russians have real quality control issues in their manufacturing sector.
