Picky Americans... are there picky Russians, too?

Until there is one aircraft from each country not everyone will be satisfied. Even then you'll get people saying, "OMG!?!?! why THAT aircraft when THIS one is SO much better BECAUSE of x, y, z"

 

Am I alone in thinking that it would be interesting to see ED make a 2 fighter aircraft pack, where their flight models arn't quite 100% accurate but they are still better than the level LockOn is at? Because at the rate of 1 very accurately modeled aircraft every 9+ months its gonna take a long while.

The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Lemmie get this straight... and forgive me for not knowing all the history...

 

The US Army is using Russian programmers to create combat training materials that simulate US equipment engaging Russian equipment on the field of battle?

 

I mean, lets face it, the last 40+ years of miltary doctrine on both sides has been based upon a conflict between the two super powers on the stepps of Western Russia and Eastern Europe.

 

Quite the irony.

You might be able to call that the "800 pound gorilla in the room" around here, but that would imply that it is being avoided and should be addressed somehow. I'm don't really think it needs to be. Maybe I (and you too) are the only ones who have taken the time to realize how odd this is in hindsight. Its enough to say that it is certainly bizarre but wonderful at the same time. :)
