@@Dronescapes Yes, we used F-86F against India in 1965 and 1971 indo-pak wars it is a fantastic aircraft, They performed well against indian Hawker Hunter, Pakistan airforce had F-104 star fighter which performed well against MiG-21 in 1965 war.

Yes Fayaz, and the Mig had greater power as well. Our F-86 needed canons and much more engine power. Al-salamü ‘alayküm, brother. 🇺🇸💛🇵🇰

The MiG-15 was most impressive indeed but the F-86 had the radar ranging gunsight and later versions with the “flying tail” IMO totally outclassed the MiG. The MiG was really badass tho.

At the time, Polikarpov had designed the I-185, far superior to anything else in the air at the time (once the engine was sorted out), but backsbabbing and corruption, especially from Mikoyan, killed the project.

The MIG 15 and the F-86 were both introduced in 1949. So no "until".

@matheuscerqueira7952 5 ай бұрын

The "until" is because the MIG-15 was deployed first in Korea and the US had then to rush F-86 there. In the mean time, the MIGs dominated the air

The UK gave the USSR a working De Havaland jet engine . So much for UK politicians. In my opinion, that was treason.

This is what makes me ticked: The Russians had their frontline fighters _and pilots_ openly fighting our jets in Korea, so why don’t we have our Top Gun pilots and F-15’s openly fighting in Ukraine?? The Russians did it _again_ in Vietnam! The U.S. government seems spineless. 🇺🇸💛🇺🇦

Times have drastically changed, I doubt it is about 'spineless' pilots. American, for example, helped afghans against the Russians, etc. Those were different times. Today globalism has much larger repercussions

Well, Europe, or the rest of the world is not much better. Everyone is too intertwined with Russia, one way or another. you can say that everyone is scared of rocking the boat. They are all guilty of appeasing, complimenting and dealing with Putin. Look at Germany's stance on Russia. It's a fine line. Don't forget that there is Covid to deal with, also China, climate, etc. It's not a good time for the planet.

@Dronescapes 8 ай бұрын

Whittle’s engine , the British genius, and inventor of the turbojet (and not the Germans as too many people wrongfully think). It was copied by the Soviets after they trashed the utterly flawed (copied) German engines. Interestingly the Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star that initially had to face the MiG 15 was powered by the same British invention. The first jet flight in the U.S. in 1942 was powered by Whittle’s engine, shipped in great secrecy to the United States in 1941, together with the British inventor. It also powered the first U.S. jet fighter, and became the first jet engine for both General Electric, and Pratt & Whitney’s. When people say that the U.S. copied German turbojets, they could not be more wrong, they were very British.

It figures thats the story Stalin told about how they got the engine its actually not true according to what is recorded history the British decided to give them the engines the MIG people never showed up and Britain it was the other way around there was a phone call the British prime Minister decided to gift the two most advanced engines we had as a sign of good faith after the war that we really were allies now it helped to get rid of some of Stalin suspicion.
