it's gotten better, you should ask /k/ though not this shithole
Zachary Green
It's not as cool as the F-22 but it's probably better than whatever fake shit the Russians and Indians have.
Have fun bullying your neighbors if you get the balls to do it.
Evan Edwards
>2016 >not MiG's
Hunter Butler
we cant afford f-22 raptors the f-35 is much cheaper quantity > quality
Jayden Ward
It will never be as good as F-15
Kayden Garcia
>P.S Yes this where your money goes faggots.You shouldn't have give us money.We buy weapons with that money.We wont pay shit. You are never, ever getting those marbles back m8.
Jackson King
Fuck you Greece and pay your debts. Where do you need weapons, no one would want to invade you anyway. 1.5 billions what the fuck.
Joshua Ortiz
The only one worth buying is the F35B even then your sacrifcing mobility for vtol. You would of been better off buying F16s
Benjamin Perry
Over priced trash designed for Lockheed Martin to drain the coughers of national defence budgets world wide. I would much rather three su35 over one f35
Jonathan Fisher
>Uncountable decades into the future, long after we have colonized Mars, the military still tries to pretend the project was worth something.
Samuel Perez
Buying guns is probably a good investment when you live next to Turkey. Defense is one of the last things you should cut. Try cutting from social security etc. but don't feel bad about necessary expenses.
Bentley Adams
Why are we buying fighters? Are we fighting the Galactic Empire? Dogfighting is dead.
Michael Ortiz
>implying sultan erdogan is itching for war against us. this is the reason we pay so much money for our army.
Blake Hill
>no one would want to invade you anyway Maybe they want to be prepared in case Operation Marita 2.0 happens. Plus, Turkey is right next door.
Zachary Evans
we just try to be good friends with our burger allies
Samuel Allen
> coughers u wot m8?
Jacob Turner
To take back Constantinople
Logan Mitchell
Phone corrected coffers relax
Evan Brown
what? why aren't you paying denbt instead?
Ayden Myers
How the fuck can you buy anything right now?
Let alone 50 F-35s jesus fuck.
Jacob Wilson
It's not even the same type of fighter as the F-15 you retard. The F-35 is a strike fighter and the F-15 is an air superiority fighter. They do entirely different things.
Robert Adams
Good thing that the F35 isn't designed for dogfighting then.
F35 is an expensive way to get air superiority. Can't really see how it would be a good choice for Greece though because very few countries other than the US has the budget to have enough of them and to pay for the insanely high maintenance cost per flight hour these things have.
For smaller countries it would probably make more sense to have cheaper planes so they could get more flight hours for their pilots and be able to use them without blowing the entire defense budget on meme planes. I think Norway had to downsize literally everything else for the near future because of the cost of F35.
Gabriel Turner
F22s cannot be sold or traded outside of the USAF period.
Look it up.
Aiden Mitchell
...
Asher Ward
russians cant into landing
Christopher Sanders
And even if it could be sold outside the USAF, the government shut down production. Hopefully they chose to mothball the production equipment rather than outright destroy it.
Michael Fisher
Its a must.The mongols next door will have theirs f 35 by the end of 2020.Then we can say bye bye to the aegean if we cant compete
Cooper Gomez
It's worth mentioning that the Russians stick their dicks in Scandinavian air space all the time.
Gavin Rogers
invade turkey and repay denbt
Justin Gutierrez
The F-35 is a strike fighter, not an air superiority fighter.
How do you retards still not know this?
Blake Morgan
Those jets are more valuable than the damn ship that keeps losing them. They should just stop flying until they get home. Time for a redesign.
Well, that's a normative designation. The F-35 is cheaper than the F-22, it still outperforms the enemy's fighters in the air, and it can be equipped with air-to-air weapons.
Nicholas Hall
>whatever fake shit the Russians and Indians have Except the Russians can actually get the PAK-50s working.
Aaron Gomez
This.
This is what our goverment saw and paniced.There were 70 test dogfights between f-16/f-15 and F-35 and F-35 won all of them.
Alexander Gonzalez
Because it's a really fucking good fighter.
Eli Wilson
It's the best, but you can't afford.
Isaac Lopez
I make parts for these as my job AMA.
Julian Reed
It's a scam. Our government has also fallen for it.
Hugely overpriced crappy planes to sell to foreigners at huge profits. While Americans make much better planes for themselves.

>Insane price F-35A: $98 million F-35B: $104 million F-35C: $116 million per unit >Can't fly in close formation >Can't fly in storms >Can't fly at night
Best plaine ever made am i right
Levi Sanders
Trust me.. the only people who will benefit from this are the tax payers
Robert Williams
>to sell to foreigners at huge profits. >While Americans make much better planes for themselves. Meanwhile in real life, as opposed to this user's brain, the US military is purchasing over 1000 F-35s.
Matthew Lewis
It is a new type of fighter for the new age of airspace defense.
A lot of people don't understand this and think it is bad.
Jordan Morris
I bet you make PAO tubes. Go die in a fire.
Jayden Harris
The PAK-FA isn't expected to be in service until 2018 and it's had its own share of accidents and malfunctions during testing (compressor stalls, other bits catching fire, etc.). Fewer documented incidents than the F-35, but then again, the Russians are probably less transparent about this stuff than the US. Plus, it can't really be compared to the F-35 due to their different roles.
Luis Ramirez
Do they need tugboats for those too?
Eli Gutierrez
>falling for ruskie anti f-35 memes
If you don't like them then go buy the "high quality" coal powered stuff the Russians are selling.
Jonathan Price
>Insane price F-35A: $98 million F-35B: $104 million F-35C: $116 million per unit How much do you think modern fighters cost if you think that price is "insane?"
Ever seen what Eurofighters and Rafale's go for?
Adrian Cooper
Why respond to such terrible bait?
Nathan Bell
As the results have shown, it outperforms previous American fighter jets and it's not like you want to buy Russian weapons ever. Guns and planes are the only things we're good at making anymore.
Sorry it's expensive but it's a war machine and if the costs could only be lowered so much.
I'll pump my gas at Shell Oil for the rest of my life and go to Legoland next vacation if it makes you less butthurt.
Julian Jackson
We never expected real countries to pay up, let alone you filthly Greeks. We buy all this shit ourselves and share the scraps with poorfags
Those planes are nice as fuck, but they're a bit finicky
Carson Lee

It cant even compete with the F15. What do you think will happen if it faces the new PAK50
What else did your anti-F35 echo chamber beat into your head?

What's your source retard Only countries that codeveloped can buy it for now Our only hope against the turkadurka is better detection tech Which means wait for china/russia to develop it first
Nathan Walker
There is nothing modern about that thing

the F-15 is/was a strike fighter you fuck. hence the name Strike eagle
Kevin Myers
Well, we built these fuckers for a reason.
Lockheed Martin engineer here.
Logan Nelson
We take their money first and then we buy tanks with that money from them!
Infinite value!
Nathan Mitchell
Wrong. The F-15 is called the Eagle and it's an air superiority fighter.
It has a strike VARIANT called the F-15E. That is called a Strike Eagle.
This is literally wikipedia shit. Learn to read you fucking mongoloid.
Bentley Jackson
which factory?
Adrian Phillips
I fucking hate the F35 so much
William Rivera
Thanks for proving my point and killing yours genius lel
Brayden Diaz
It's a cute airplane, OP
I like how you're buying yourself something nice!
Isaiah Price
The f-35 isn't worth it, first off hilary wasn't elected so we shouldn't have to worry about a major war anytime soon. Second the f-35 was designed as an attack plane so its at a disadvantage in any sort of dogfight due to its slow turning speed. If any thing they should put more into the F-22 which can easily compete with the su-35s, but once again we dont need to be spending on that right now. the planes we currently have are still perfectly fine
Samuel Sullivan
>russia shitting their pants that the USA and its allies is going to have 3000+ stealth planes that beat every plane easily except the rare and expensive f-22 and su-50 >create le propaganda meme that the f-35 is shit hoping the west will cancel it >poltards repeating it like they repeat everything their russian godemperor tells them to as the useful idiots that they are
Grayson Brooks
Everything you said is wrong.
Cooper Ross
Stop wasting your money on war toys. You can't compete with us. We are Level 3 partner and planning to buy 120 of them including STOVL versions for our carrier.
Leo Morgan
So your point is that you are too stupid to accurately distinguish between two separate aircraft?
If you intend to post and out the F-15E then you should learn how to write F-15E buy something tells me you were unaware of its existence as a separate aircraft until I just told you.
Kevin Cook
modern smoothskins are shit aesthetics. Prop planes are god tier
Luis Moore
Just keep the A10, F16 and F18 and you are fine.
Ian Murphy
JSF isn't a fighter, it's light bomber. It's meant mostly to replace the USN F-18 Hornet. Comparisons to fighters are stupid, JSF name notwithstanding.
Josiah Wood

Jackson Foster
I like you. Pls take more money from Germany and the EU to buy shiny American weapons.
Isaac Nguyen
Surprisingly accurate. Does that mean windows 7 the plane will be amazing?
Thomas Thomas
PAY. YOUR. FUCKING. DEBTS. FIRST.
Zachary Collins
Greece Bro,
Please buy M1 Abrams

Christian Adams
Awesome, but overpriced.
Luke Mitchell
Richland, Washington. Me made the nukes, too.
Eli Cruz
There's also less than ten PAK-FAs. They're still testing and slowly making new ones.
Gavin Smith
Hopefully. The trend seems to be going unmanned for everything though.
