Germans are orderly and hard working, Russians are drunk and hardly working.

Russian ran out of Germans to do the work for them.

once the b2 was announced one of the horten brothers said "hey guise look we designed the 229 to be stealth we were so smart xDDD"
it was bullshit btw

Then explain this: >>28030701

>>28030767
You mean a soundless slideshow that doesn't actually convey any information?
Or the fact that a fucking tiny aircraft has a small radar signature?
Or even the fact that static models only prove so much?

Granted, the test did show a significant (almost 40%) decrease in detection range, but only against Chain Home. And even then the large formation that would be needed to do anything more than minor damage would be easily detectable ANYWAY.

Come on, thats unfair anon. They had the latest cutting edge AA technology at hand.

And even then it was due to circumstances that are pretty much unrepeatable.

can you be more butthurt, just admit that your hundred billion stealth tech is shit against anything other than pakis with handheld RPGs

>>28031125
>F117 flew the same fucking route every time
>AA was using a modified radar
>Attempted a second lock when ordered not to

That everything?
>>
>>28031149
they got the f117 with the bay doors open, i forget if it was luck, good timing by the serbs or a mechanical failure that stuck them open
>>
>>28031149
Bomb bay doors were open.
There were spies near the base to tell when aircraft took off.
>>
>>28031149
Oh, and of course it was a first generation stealth aircraft.
>>
>>28031163
so let me see if I understood you right

AA battery which had a very limited timeframe of a dozen seconds to turn on a radar before the aircraft in the air got a lock on on it was able to, due to "spies", deduce the very ten seconds out of a 15 or 20 minutes long flight the aircraft took

>>28031185
>aircraft has always flown the same route at the same speed

slavs are stupid, but even they can do that simple math

>>28031292

You know that 0.1-1 RCS is the official Sukhoi claim right?
>>
>>28030346

>Ho 229
>Stealth

Not even discussing the fact that the Ho would have been shit as the fighter they had initially planned, that is a meme naziboos make.

>>28030346
What I want to know is what the Russians did for prototypes and special experiments during WW2...
>>
>>28031432
COMRADE WHAT IF WE OF SUPERGLUINGS WINGS ONNA TANK

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonov_A-40

tl;dr mostly weird mashups like that, frying boats, enormous transport aircraft etc. nothing nearly as interesting as what nazis did.
>>
>>28031399
come on how can you straight out dislike and dismiss discussion of that? aircraft looks fucking phenomenal, I always wondered how did those american soldiers who walked into germany or whever and found that one prototype of it inside of some hangar react. even today it looks like something out of a scifi movie or comic.
>>
>>28031459

>Interesting

If by "Interesting" you mean "Who cares if it's impractical and unreliable, it's awesome", you are correct.

Slav aviation, particularly in the 30's (albeit with a little boost from cooperating with Junkers during the 20's) was insanely good for its time.
>>
>>28031338
If you are so sure about his knowledge of RCS then why don't you use the RCS numbers he was saying about Murican planes as well to compare it to. Coming from the same source we'd know we have the same definition of RCS for both planes, otherwise it'd be quite pointless as we would just be comparing apples to oranges.

>>28030346
>stealthy
>good
>cheap
pick only two
>>
>>28030346
Because russians are good at SAMs and ... Nukes? Everything else is shit tier.
>>
>>28030346
Russia can build one.

Maybe a dozen.


Then they'll run out of money and stop.
>>
spend 100 million on 1 stealth plane

zerg people with thousands of cheap migs for the same price.
>>
>>28032765
Pilots aren't free.
>>
>>28032765
kekeke

More like spend 85 million each on 2000 stealth planes and zerg 400 migs with them.

Or spend 120m on 200 F22s and zerg 5 PAK-FAs with them.
>>
>>28031776
Damn you vatniks are trying hard right now.
>>
>>28031085
This shit again
>You are now aware the Serbs had to launch a salvo of missiles at the 117 on hand modified systems.
The Pilot was never caught and was extracted earlier that morning by PJ's.
