Воинственные европейские лимитрофы очень хорошо устроились за спиной умирающей Украины. Тявкают оттуда что-то воинственное. Прямо очень хочется чтобы русня нанесла по ним ядерный удар. Заебали, злобные пинчеры.
Если СССР был такой отсталый, почему вы его так боялись? До сих пор с ним воюете. Ничтожества.
We studied the Russian MiG; we had several MiGs test-flying over Area 51. We knew what the SR-71 could do and what the MiG could do.
Did you know that... On 6 September 1976, an aircraft, a MiG-25, appeared out of the clouds near the Japanese city of Hakodate, on the northern island of Hokkaido. It’s a twin-engined jet, but not the kind of short-haul airliner Hakodate is used to seeing. This massive, grey hulk sports the red stars of the Soviet Union. No one in the West has ever seen one before. The Russian Lieutenant Belenko, a very bright man, felt that the Party leaders in his country had been lying to him his whole life. He was right.
The pilot climbs out of the plane’s cockpit and fires two warning shots from his pistol – motorists on the road next to the airport have been taking pictures of this strange sight. It is some minutes before airport officials, driving from the terminal, reach him. It is then that the 29-year-old pilot, Flight Lieutenant Viktor Ivanovich Belenko of the Soviet Air Defense Forces, announces that he wishes to defect!🇺🇸
Belenko and the Foxbat (written by Butch Sheffield ( Ohio to Supersonic book)
The Russians had a Mach three fighter called the “Foxbat.” For many years, the Foxbat fighters had been lurking around the borders of Russia, waiting to take a shot at an SR-71.
One morning, as I sat at the kitchen table having breakfast with my wife, Rosie, she had the news on; I saw an aircraft landing in Japan on TV. I cried out to Rosie, “That’s a FOXBAT!
The USAF needed to see and inspect a Foxbat MiG-25 to help us defend our SR-71 and all our other American airplanes. The next best thing would be to talk to one of the Foxbat pilots.
By the time I got to work, we started early; Buck Adams, who worked for me as the SR-71 Program Element Monitor (PEM), had already been at work getting us the authority to talk to the pilot, Belenko ( Buck Adams was an SR-71 pilot known for breaking the record speed run from London to Los Angeles)
Needless to say, every intelligence agency and intelligence officer in Washington wanted to talk to Belenko. When I heard Buck’s plan to speak to the pilot first, I wished him luck but thought it would be impossible.
Buck made the impossible happen. He was the first person to talk to Belenko, an SR-71 pilot!
After inspecting the MiG-25 in Japan, the Americans were surprised to learn they had overestimated the Russian aircraft's capabilities. In 1976, we learned the MiG-25 could not intercept an SR-71.
The Russians lagged in Metallurgy, particularly in exploring titanium, which, although extremely expensive and complicated to work with, is very light, strong, and heat resistant. The Russians built the MiG out of steel alloy (which tended to rust). They lacked the technology to work with titanium. Plus, they used vacuum tubes instead of transistors. The aircraft was very heavy.
At the same time, the Russians were clearly struggling with technology.
The United States was importing titanium from the Russians. How did they do this? The CIA made up fake companies and bought their titanium. One company said they needed the titanium to make pizza ovens. The CIA used titanium to build airplanes to spy on the Russians: the A-12 and later the Air Force SR-71.
Victor Belenko has been told his whole life that the Americans were “Dark Forces,” that America was full of crime, and that we were poverty-stricken. They used old videos of the 1930s depression as proof. They also used pictures of gangsters in Chicago as further proof of our crime problem. This was the propaganda they taught, and most people in the Soviet Union believed it, but Victor did not. That is why he defected to America. Update* He died in a small town in Illinois in September 2023 at age 76, while in a nursing home.
I highly recommend buying and reading MiG Pilot by John Barron; it might be hard to find. I ordered mine on Amazon.~ Linda Sheffield

Он решил не оставить выбора ни Трампу ни Путину?
Немыслимо. Россияне на переговорах сказали, что их начальник зол и хочет продолжать удары
Зеленский раскрыл, что проихсодило за закрытыми дверями в Абу-Даби.
Оказалось, что в ответ на мирные предложения по прекращению огня делегация Мединского лишь мычала в ответ и говорила,

Я так и не понял, как уход Украины с остатков Донбасса, отведет НАТО на границы 1997 года.
Путин переговорщикам США: давайте глобальный мирный договор. Не минские писульки, не пасхальные перемирия. А мир вечный, навсегда по договору.
Зеля: давайте перемирие и дайте мне денег и оружие... Верните всех украинцев с ес мне в армию.
Пздц...

А помните те сказочки, что нам рассказывали про НКВД и "массовые" репрессии? Ужас что было. Хорошо, что Украина свободна и у нас такого нет.

Пиндосы занимались разрушением Украины еще со времен "Украина без Кучмы", поддерживали государственные перевороты, разрушали общественное спокойствие, а теперь такие: "а шо такое? а кто это сделал? посмотрите на этого негодяя!".
Вырожденцы проклятые, жертвы имбридинга.
Zelenskyy Ridicules President Trump on Same Day Trump’s People Trying to Mediate an End to Ukraine Conflict
This guy is a real piece of work.
How does Zelenskyy think this antagonism is in the best interest of his country?
I guess Zelensky and his handlers in the EU fear losing money if peace breaks out.
