I know. Our Patriots are vastly superior and they are getting improved almost every day.Lockheed Martin has proposed an air-launched variant of the PAC-3 missile for use on the F-15C. Other aircraft, such as the F-22 and P-8A Poseidon, have also been proposed

Vastly superior? That would be almost funny was it not for the fact that the USAF and USN airforces are not particularly laughing. One could be correct in saying the PAC 3 sensors are superior to the S300/400, but in terms of range and kinematics it is a different question. As for vastly superior, that is an overstatement.
