I missed the competition? Those results don't surprise me that's why my post at the top of the page is relevant talking about the
Harrier and
A-10.
Poland honestly would be much better off buying the
Gripen NG and keep pushing to join Germany and France in building the "EuroLeo". The 4th GEN +++
Gripen NG is just as capable as the
borderline 5th GEN
F-35, much cheaper to buy, operate and maintain and any road would do for a runway.
Poland needs quality and numbers in jets and tanks to hold back an aggressive resurgent Russia for deterrence and not a handful of Squadrons or less of
F-35 fighters. Canada this goes for you to,
you both need to get your GRIPEN!?!

(I can find more like this, a very easy reading comparison between the two. The GRIPEN NG is even
faster then the F-35.)
USAF better barracks,
tents with AC, prettier bases and supply airlines with pilots.
Big Deal!!
On Saturdays we woke up with a drill and had a Field Day, Sliders (Cheese optional.) for lunch, Pizza for mid-rats and on Sundays Prime Rib or Steak and Shrimp all at
hundreds of feet beneath the Ocean!!
The USAF ain't got nothing on us!! Can't do that flying a
Whoopi-d-do jet!

Anyway my USMC buddy is derrnnn right!?!
Well that felt good!
