Dear commenters, I live in Florida, so I know a lot of people from Venezuela. According to them, they hate Hugo and the governenment, and I heard terrible things about what the government did to their families. Thats why they moved to the United States. Please correct me of anything.

[Suyamu]

@theloopholeisntaahol

there are lots of people from Venezuela who like Chavez and stay in Venezuela. :)

I don't live in Venezuela and can't comment on their situation but I know first hand how media bias can paint a totally different picture than you'll find in reality.

Don't buy too much into propaganda which tries to tell you most countries in the world are fubar and totally need your country's involvement to get better.

That's just politicians creating opportunities to get (even more) rich

[fulcrumize]

Salut Chavez!  Salut Castro!

[bsnighteye]

Every day I see brainwashed comments on YouTube in military theme about western technology supremacy... BUT... Why whole Europe and USA armies were scared a lot when just 2(!!!) "swans" took a light flight to Venezuela? It made a lot of noise. Why they are scared when it's "No reason to worry - we have the best airforce and missile systems"? I do not understand. It seems USA have more propaganda than any other country.

Oh, by the way, greetings to all Venezuela people!

From Russia with love.

[hipolito6661]

YO LO VI VOLAR CUANDO TRABAJABA POR SERCA DE LA BASE DE PALO NEGRO LIBERTADOR Y TREMENDO MOTOR !!! CUANDO DIO LA HUELTA YA ESTABA MAS ALTO Y SE VEIA QUE ERA MUY RAPIDO MAS RAPIDO F16 POR TAMAÑO ESTABA LEJOS PERO SE VIA!!! QUE Q ES SUPER SONICO!!! NO JUEGA CARRITOS!!

[dnlcast2]

I hate to admit it..but Russian planes are better than our american planes! The B-1 Bomber is nice, but this black jack TU-160 is just awsome!!! Its almost scary how powerful and how much better it is than our B-1 Bomber..Russian engineers are the best in the world!! hands down!!

уго братушка!!!!!!!!!!

[Sukohing]

tengo entendido que el TU. 160. es el mas rapido del mundo. y en un documental explica que este bombardero puede escapar a los radares del NORALL que es la gran defensa del norte de canada. el bombardero invisible de los EEUU conocido como el B-2 no estan efectivo pues puede ser detectado por los radares; el polimero que usa para ser invisible se cae con la lluvia probocando que los radares del enemigo lo detecten no es de extrañarse que en sus misiones los realize si el clima no presenta lluvia

[erikclay2003]

T-160 EL MAS RAPIDO SI, TIENE MAS CAPASIDAD DE BOMBAS SI, Y UN GRAN ALCANSE PERO TIENE UN GRAN PROBLEMA LOS RADARES LO PUEDEN DETECTAR POR RL TAMANO Y SUS GRANDES MOTORES Y ESO LO HACE UN AVION QUE SOLO ES UTIL PARA UN PAIS DEL TERCER MUNDO. ES UNA GRAN TECHNOLOGIA PARA LA AVIACION PERO NO MILITARMENTE

USA sucks!

Viva Venezuela y Latinoamerica libre!

[AZURA888]

USA is a dangerous country and Venezuela has a lot of oil. Brasil will buy 36 Rafales and 5 submarines next year because its new oil reserves. Venezuela's economy is growing from 93000 million $ to 380000 millon $ like others South America economies. Now if we want we can buy even the Tu160 to protect our soberany and the future development.

[6308281]

USA is a dangerous country watch "why Comunism Fails" and see whos who - you have no idea of what you talking about - but then anybody who supports a Dictator like Chavez the Clown what do you expect

mclavery1 is the most stupid american girl,i have ever seen,nothing to add)

[mclavery1]

I dream of the day that Russia makes a move...wait and see what happens you fucking commie fag. You all think your so bad ass...Your Military is collecting dust and rust while we here in the US are polishing our warheads...Idle words from a small mind, we are still cleaning up your mess from your failed attempt in Afghanistan...always taking out the trash...God Damnit I Love America.

[LexSullivan]

look at this (surely) obese McDipshit with a little-pistol-in-the-pant complex who thinks that american can win afghanistan (hello its vietnam for everyone not just the soviet) first you payed the terros to cripple the red army again red army didn't needed to be payed a fortune to be good soldiers (in contrary of the american army that have to pay a salary and education to soldiers its a real joke for an so called powerful army...) again using warheads his cowardiness

[LexSullivan]

in missiles (no tech) bombers are way more classy and representative of power...

[LexSullivan]

who financed the terros... yess man you're good : U.S.A, who paid rockets for afghans to bring down the soviet Hinds in the war, yess yoU're a genius, U.S.A, who was friend with the notorious terro "OF THE WORLD" (oh and and the US) OSSAMA BIN LADEN and who brought USA to its knees yesss we got a winnar!!!! its GEORGES W BUSH!!!! well done McSlavery, McStalin or McWhatever you won the evil empire prize of the most shameful idiot earth may hold, keep it up and you may earn the Darwin awards...

[LexSullivan]

and after he says USA are here to bring freedom democracy (mostly the as-time-shitty neo-liberalism theory but its another story) and to clean the supposely soviet mess in afghanistan... wow I think I'm lmao...

do they even clean the still on fire soviet helos or tank debris... oh I forgot its a battlefield and anyway warring conservative doesn't care a fuck about earth they don't even think about driving an hybrid SUV for fuck sake! I don't see any soviet mess here...

[LexSullivan]

oh yea you're not eligible for D. Award fucktard you're not dead yet... ah whatashame...

[rot1000]

all the world now is time to united against the most terrible empire humanity has known.

USA and his England puppet

[Talkatif]

mclavery1 almost every country treats their people like dirt, SPECIALLY US, it's what you call 'normal living' & most of Iran's laws are resourced from forms of religious restraint for ethical purposes, if US imposed some laws Iran has to keep their way of order there wouldn't be OPENLY prostitution, drug abuse, criminal activity, openly gay society, GAMBLING, corruption etc (long list), the world including me wants BUSH impeached, there are much worst people around, US is buddies with some -_-'

[jamzva]

paises como rusia son un balance para que USA no se apodere de todo el mundo como siempre lo tratan de haser,espero que mas paises latino americanos salgan de la oprecion que USA les a impuesto

[oswaldo208]

tipos esta locos , muchos es dictadura de chavez

[msperling]

Russia is a very important country in the world, because it creates a balance of forces. The latin-american aproximation to Russia is of great interest for latin-america, in order to keep peace and soberany.

[luiseduardo586]

WOW...se fueron sin escalas!

[ursa41]

And how! Those Iranians are full-blown religious fanatics, just like the rest of their kind. The word "rationalization" does not exist in their dictionary...

[ursa41]

I stand corrected. An aviation book I purchased in 2002 had the designation down as "Su-37"; recently, they revised it to "Su-47". It's supersonic, OK; typing too quickly. Still, I would not be surprised if they improve on it and mass-produce it. It's actually based on an experimental design developed by Germany in late World War II. Grumman had a similar aircraft, the X-29 with same reverse-wing config. Don't know what happened with that. But, don't ever underestimate your rival!!

[mclavery1]

I dont underestimate Russia one bit, Russia Could destroy the world 100 times, and the US can do the same...its just a war of words thats all, neither is dumb enough to fire nukes first...now Iran is another story...

[KOSTIAN242]

All planes with reverse-wing config Had the big problem with durability of a wing, at such configuration wings did not maintain overloads and collapsed. In SU-47 this problem is eliminated, the structure covered at 47 consists of thousand super-strong nano-strings

[aviomaster]

--- GO RUSSIA ... USA get the fuck out of SERBIA ./.. KOSOVO is SERBIA .. FUCK USA ..

[BGSoccerMagic]

Guys this is not a frigin computer war game. So chill out and start thinking globally. Peace.

[SFLegacy]

I am sorry to say but US ABM system is not capable of shooting down SS-18, SS-27, SS-NX-30, RS-24 missiles. The last 3 types of missiles are the first of its kind in the world. They have the ability to change flight trajectory during atmosphere re-entry and normal flight.

[tarasov12]

correction: they has paid 20 000 000 000$

The population of Poland is 40 million. America has paid us 20 000 000 000 dollars

for the deployment of a missile defense system. The life of every Pole has been valued at $ 500. Thank you America.

[NBg45]

your life will be valuated with russian ballistic missiless u retard.poland is stupid country,nobody told them other side of story,they will be first hitted with russian bombs after this shit with americans...

[Schwoorf]

USA should stop that new colonialism

like in Bolivia..east Europe etc

[mclavery1]

Yes, until 2040 Because it works, and it is cheap to operate...The USA has around 100 B-52s compared to Russias 65 TU-95s...They just cant compete with the Numbers the The USA has, and we havn't even talked about the B-2 Stealth...

[Schwoorf]

yeah its about numbers..those 2 can destroy almost all big cities in usa

USA can do same crap 3 times more

/sarcasm off ^^

[mclavery1]

Im not being sarcastic, im just stating a fact...they are all made to kill. 2 Tu-160s can do ALOT of damage...but i would hope for Russia's sake that they are smart enough to not make a move...would be the end of Russia and the USA, and dont forget Switzerland, that would be a shame, its a nice country...

[Schwoorf]

i know that all is dumb

but looks like usa started cold war again..because their puppet in caucaus get slapped in the face

bad movie

[mclavery1]

Yes, it is VERY dumb...My government has a way of starting some(alot) stupid shit...But Russia has been saying some pretty stupid things as of late, and as far as im convinced, Medvedev and Putin are just flexing their muscles...either way, it wont ammount to more than a war of words, Russia cannot afford(literally)to mis-behave.

[Schwoorf]

Russia isnt an angel too

but in this case they look a bit better then USA

from that conflict will profit only 3th side..muslims ..they will be armed again by Russia and USA .

[KOSTIAN242]

One TU-160 carries 12 nuclear rockets with range of start-up of 3000 kilometer. On the military abilities 1 TU-160 replaces 3 B-1A.Even experts of the NATO recognize that TU-160 the most powerful strategic bomber in the world

[mclavery1]

It may be the most powerful, But Its russian, they probably spent this years budget for the aircraft flying it to Venezuela. B2 stealth is the Most Powerful Bomber in the World...

[KOSTIAN242]

MYAAAHAHAHAAA S-400 Will eat your triangular rolls with meat in cost billion dollars

[kibabiba]

B-2 sux))) it's too light to carry serious weapon like tomahawk, it's not super sonic, it has little range and shitty airdynamics. Morden SAMs see stealth like simple plane.

Sorry.....))))

[mclavery1]

The B2 wouldn't carry a Tomahawk regardless...it is fired from sea usually. The B2 has an Unlimited range when re-fueled Mid air, and Modern(Newer)radar may see "it", but, "it" for sure wont look like a B2...maybe a bird...

[kibabiba]

it depends on radar. For short waves it would be like a bird, for long waves like a B-2))))

Ground SAMs like S-300 uses different length of waves at the same time. Short waves are more accurate, long waves see stealth.

P.S. F-22 is so cool, because fiters like Su-27, F-25, Mig-29 cant afford long waves radar(it very big)

[mclavery1]

kibabiba

I know long wave radar is more capable of seeing stealth...But I promise you that what ever your radar sees, it wont look like an F22 or B2 that is flting over your back yard.

[kibabiba]

*fighters like Su-27, F-15, Mig-29

[tarasov12]

The American army can not defeat even the peasants in Iraq and Afghanistan.

America to shame fled from Vietnam.

Not to mention that the savage tribes won the American army in Somalia. The outcome of any war decide ground operations in which the American army always loses.

What's the difference how many America has missiles and bombers. Mutual destruction in the war with Russia is still guaranteed. The extra hundreds of missiles and bombers simply do not need

[mclavery1]

Let us forget the Russian Failure in Afghanistan in the 80s...

You think Russia is tough because they went into Georgia? That Country has 4.5 Million people...My home STATE of Wisconsin has more people than that...When Russia goes into a country that is bigger than my little finger then we can talk...

PS We are building a missile defnce system in Poland...Sorry to say, You will be the first ones off the map.

[tarasov12]

A missile defence system in Poland will be in 40 km from my place. I am upset. But this system can do nothing with russian strategic nuclear missiles. How this system (several missiles) can defend US (and Europe too) from missiles on submarines, Satana, Iskander (maybe I am mistaken in the names of these weapons). And dont forget please about

radioactive contamination around the globe (I dont talk about Poland, it will be eleminated first and many of us are against this defence system

[akbulyakov]

mclavery1, and you will tell us that we can't send bombers to Latin America? After you just treating us to delete our country from the map using Poland? Who is the aggressor in this case, huh?

[mclavery1]

The US is not targeting Russia From Poland.

The United States is (with Polands permisson)using land in Poland to defend western Europe, and other American Allies from rouge state with possible nulcear and non nuclear weapon abilities, such as Iran and Syria. The fact that a modern nation such as Russia makes allies with such bad countries is sad. Honestly are any of you Russians pround to know that your country if allies with Iran and Venezuela? These countries treat their people like dirt.

[mclavery1]

And worse, they support terrorism. I have NO problem with Russia defending their borders, or trying to help defend the world...but when you fly your bombers to states that are not freindly to the USA its not good. Russia and the United states need each other...Best 2 countries in the world, and 99.9% of all americans have NO problem with Russia. But your freinds are are our enemies...Not good. There is an old saying, The Enemy of my enemy is my friend...Think about it.

[ewah786]

The american media has got to you guy. How can you call Iran a bad country? They have a rapidly expanding population and place top 10 in world mathematics competitions. They are not shit and are not treated like shit like your media tells you, to support indiscriminate bombing of them.

I live 100 miles from Venezuela. They never interfered with no one. NO ONE. How can they be an enemy??

Its because they are full of oil and US is full of greed. Thats where all the world problems start.

[Robert111]

ewah, there are educated people here in the U.S. (like myself) that realize that the U.S. is the most dangerous country due to the stupidity of our masses and our weapons of mass destruction. Thank heavens that Russia is present to prevent us from attacking and corrupting more places in the world. The U.S. should become safer if we are able to elect Obama. See statistics that educated people (with university degrees) vote for Obama. Bush was voted in by corn pone states.

[KOSTIAN242]

mclavery1 You argue as the idiot!! Strategic multimode rocket carrier TU-160, It is intended for defeat by the nuclear and usual weapon of the most important objects in the removed geographical areas and in deep rear of continental battlefields.12 TU-160 can destroy all AMERICA it is the FACT

[mclavery1]

Maybe so, But when those fat Birds are being shot down one by one, Our Stealths will be sailing Smoothly over Moscow!

[tarasov12]

The population of Poland is 40 million. America has paid us 20 000 000 dollars

for the deployment of a missile defense system. The life of every Pole has been valued at $ 500. Thank you America.

[kibabiba]

Read something about stealth before posting suck a bullshit. If radar uses long waves there is no metter: stealth or not.

[SFLegacy]

LOL

"Our Stealths will be sailing Smoothly over Moscow" you are having a laugh?

B2 spirit, F22 or a cruise missile can be detected by russian by 1L119 VHF radar. With B2 flying at subsonic speed, it is not a problem for S-400 missile to shoot it down.

[mclavery1]

Russia "claims" they can see stealth...they claim a lot of things...they didn't take stealth seriuosly until Desert Storm...Stealth has come a long way since then, I will admit, Russia does make pretty damn good radar systems, but where is their stealth tech?

[ursa41]

Ever hear of the recently-commissioned Suhkoi Su-37 Berkut reverse-wing hypersonic stealth fighter? There's your answer!

[mclavery1]

The Suhkoi Su-37 Berkut reverse-wing hypersonic stealth fighter? your kidding....Its actually the SU-47 Berkut... It is not stealth. Its listed as experimental, and Russia has 1, just 1...im sure they are working on it though right?

[mclavery1]

Oh, and it sure isn't Hypersonic, its supersonic...

[SFLegacy]

I think that guy got it wrong, :D hypersonic, i mean dam, mach 8 su 47, I wonder what would happen to the pilot at that speed :D

[mclavery1]

I know that if a pilot were to eject from the SR-71 at top speed, mach 3.3...the Air friction would be 450 degrees!

[SFLegacy]

Yeah su 47 and Mig MFI or 1.44 were used as test beds for 5 generation Russian PAK FA fighter, which will be shown to public in 2009. They were purely experimental aircraft for testing new avionics suites and other technology.

[SFLegacy]

"Russia claims they can see stealth". Claims is not the right word. Scientifically stealth aircraft can be detected.

The whole concept of stealth was created by Russian scientist Pyotr Ufimtsev, who later was a senior engineer at Lockheed Martin on the B2 project.

When he was in USSR, he studied how electromagnetic waves diffracted from complex shapes and produced many complicated formulas for working-out shape dimension.

(cont)

[SFLegacy]

The concept of stealth falls into to attributes Radar Absorbent Material and airframe design that will not reflect the transmitted signal back to the receiving station but will diffract it in the different direction in a controlled way.

Using multiple VHF beams with engagement radars placed at different coordinates, it is possible to peak up the reflected signals and using Elbrus-3M computer to track the flying object.

(cont)

[SFLegacy]

Russian Academy of Science in the 80s and through 2000 to 2005 conducted large number of experiments based on altering the airframe of the aircraft, and using current stealth airframes used by US air force. (cont)

[SFLegacy]

(cont)

In simple terms, the conclusion was that is not possible to create a complete stealth aircraft just on altering shape characteristics because it is not possible to create a shape that will have 100% perfect Raleigh regime and Resonant Regime scatters centres for all wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum.

(cont)

[SFLegacy]

(cont)

Russia and China are the only countries that use Very High Frequency Radars today. Many military engineers predicted that these radar systems in the countries around the world will be mad redundant, with microwave frequency bands instead. In the case of F22, F117 and JSF the stealth design works effectively at attenuating induced currents in the skin and diffracting the transmitted when microwave type radars are used. Therefore reducing RCS dramatically. (cont)

[SFLegacy]

(cont)

But the problem with F22, JSF and Nighthawk is that Russia uses VHF AESA radar with wavelength of 2 meters. This type of electromagnetic wave will carry more energy and upon the impact, first RAM will not be able effectively attenuate the induced electrical currents in the skins and leading edges, second the size of the components on the airframe of these aircrafts will not effectively diffract(scatter) 2 metre band waves.

(cont)

[SFLegacy]

The components I am referring to are nozzle and junctions between fuselage, stabs, nose and inlets,

[mclavery1]

And im sorry to say, If we can shoot down your missiles, im damn sure we can take down your bombers...You do not have the numbers to compete...FACT!

[kibabiba]

Tu-160 and Tu-95 maximum range 15000km and

can fire nuclear cruise missle Kh-55 at 3000km

They can fly near USA and wait for order to fire from long distance. 16 cruise missiles each. It's wery difficalt to entercept such a missiles.

Only morrons don't understand that. Don't eat shit from your TV.

[Schwoorf]

"The Air Force intends to keep the B-52 in service until at least 2040" from Wiki

lmao

[mclavery1]

Not to mention the fact that Russia has only 16 TU-160's haha, flexing your little muscles...Russia is nothing more that an annoying little brother to the USA...and Venezuela is still a dirt hole on the world...

[Schwoorf]

they are strategic bombers

they have like 3k kilometers range of their rockets

they arent old junk your b -52

[mclavery1]

They may have a larger range, But the USA has more B1 Lancers(Strategic Bomber also) in reserve than Russia has active TU-160s, 16 active TU160(wiki), the usa has like 65 active B1s, and another 25 reserve, its not about speed or range, its about numbers my friend...numbers that russia cannot compete with.

[rot1000]

so what is happening with your powerful army in Irak and Afganistan (so dont try any stupid move against Russia)

[mclavery1]

Why not try? Are you going to attack us with you old rusty military eqiupment? Maybe one of these bombers, Better be careful with them, Only 16 exist. Or did you sell it all to terrorists to feed your poor country. Spare me the Bullshit.

[rot1000]

a simple answer you see too much tv , homer hahah

[Gstyle1]

OMG shut up fucking bitch

[mclavery1]

O my god, 2 russian bombers in the western world? Give me a break, afraid of 2 bombers, they would be shot down before they got anywhere close to the US...2 bombers, haha, you better send 1000 if you want to make a stir...

[kienri123]
