i know US jet is much better. how many of best russian jets could one
US jet take on at once? i'll bet the best US jet can shoot down at
least 5 of russia's best jets before going down.

Perhaps. Check out what happened at Cope India '04. F-15C vs Su-30
Vanilla (as well as Mirage 2000, MiG-29, MiG-21). Predictably the
Yanks were murdered in WVR while they dominated BVR engagements.
Weather this is significant will emerge only as the ROE and other
details of the games become available.

The carefully leaked USAF:IAF loss rate of 4:1 was a win-win for both
the parties involved, for very different reasons.

Why should we believe anyone who doesn't know the difference between whether
and weather?
