the f-35b seems better than the harrier right now though, the harrier can't break the sound barrier and is 50 years old

if i remember correctly, the harrier doesn't use as much fuel as the F-35, and it's an actually functioning jump jet. the f-35 is still in development and uses a stuff ton of fuel.

lets not forget that planes can be designed a fourth generation plane and still carry some stealth with them. The F-18 Super hornet and the Eurofighter Typhoon are prime examples. They were designed as fourth generation fighters but ended up having a lower RCS than normal, making them a 4.5 generation-esque plane.

wasn't the nighthawk a failure so they just built the f-22 instead?

no the nighthawk was a bomber aircraft, the f-22 was a air superiority craft. in fact there was a failed design to replace the nighthawk with a f-22 variant bombers.

i was driving through the city on my motorbike when suddenly i get killed by a giant object. As I respawned and walked around the corner, it turned out to be a giant loving ferris wheel in the middle of the street. I would have gotten a picture but then I lost internet connection.

one thing i dont like about eurasia games is that im just playing europe having a war with the other part of europe when asia comes in and steamrolls us

it's worse when you're playing South America and someone picks north america and doesn't ally with you. They loving stomp you out of the water with conventional means.

F-22 is a really good plane. still beats out the PAK FA but soon that'll be different. Give it 10-15 years.

90s era plane still being the best currently is something to brag about until it's beaten out. but personally prefer the YF-23. It's the worse compared to the F-22 and PAK FA when it comes to maneuverability. But its stealth beats out both by a fair margin. It's also a large plane and has a larger payload than the F-22.

a large part of the russian and chinese fifth-generation stealth fighters are due to the serbians selling F-117 Nighthawk debris to both of them after one of their SAM sites knocked one out of the sky. this only happened because the nighthawk was opening its bomb bay doors. at the time, it was 25 year old stealth technology. So this is pretty much how Russia and China got their headstart on stealth fighters.

also lets not forget the PAK FA is expensive (1/3 of an F-22), and they also plan to build a ton and export them to various countries such as India, China, Pakistan, etc. this isn't even including the fact the plane hasn't even gone into full production yet and still has some kinks to work out.

lets talk more about the J-20 too pls.

who wants to play a eurasia game?  Looking for at least four other people

I'd love to. Is it in the beginners tab or the main tab? I can't play beginners anymore, rank is too high.

Also, I bought the Blitzkrieg strategy. It allows for +3 movement, and +2 view. so now I can spy on you from farther away, and move quicker. The con is that my defense for all units is weakened by one.

you haven't seen nothing. Played a game once, lost of course, but I came back later to check up on the progress. Three out of ten people left. Two were allies versus one. The two allies were losing and so they gave up and just packed their capitals up to 800 infantry/militia.

the stream of ID's are not as fluidous as you might think. My second key's ID is in the 190K range i believe. Only badspot knows a near perfect estimation on how many legitimate purchases there are. (not including the other 10 keys someone has bought)

Played a WW2 scenario. I was national socialist Germany and my friend Sooky was Vichy France. Anyways, someone played Italy and started a war with Sooky. I promptly sent a stuff ton of Panzers and took him out. I got into a major war with the USSR, Romania, and the UK. I took over the UK and did a push-game with Romania and the USSR until the very end when my ally disconnected. I took out the USSR but at the cost of the US finally arriving and take over my western nations. Romania buttforgeted my capital.

I am always Ukraine. No one can say Ukraine weak.

Poland is much stronk-er. Makes more money. I generally try to start off in the US. If you have control of north and south america, then you're pretty much unbeatable. Unless someone attacks with maines and submarines.
