F-22 and MiG 1.42

[EngTechno]

Can you imagine the air combat between F-22 and MiG 1.42? Who do you think will be winner?

[Tom Mattson]

The better pilot.

[drag]

Nope, it's the 21st century out there, pilots don't matter
much anymore. It's the one with the better missiles and
countermeasures. :wink:

[Clausius2]

It depends if the film is american or not. If F-22 is driven by Tom Cruise, surely he will be the winner, and he will defeat the comunism.

[Allah]

Yea, Mig 1.42 does seem cool, but the f22 is evenly matched and I doubt any will be built by russia.

I think the best plane is aurora if it exists....

[LURCH]

I think it would go down pretty much like the old classic battles between the F. 86 and the Mig 15. As was the case with those aircraft, the Mig has a slight advantage in maneuverability, but the American fighter has a better weapon system.

THe F-22 is pretty much just a boondoggle
