Following my video on China's MBTs, I decided to delve into Soviet tanks. You know, the ones that all look exactly the same. In this video, using images from the Ukraine conflict as a reference, we learn how to distinguish the Soviet Union's tanks from eachother. The T-54, 55, 62, 64, 72, 80, 84, 90 and 14. How DO you tell them apart?

The F-35 is the final product of the Joint Strike Fighter program.

    Even though it’s only a footnote at the very end, the Ta-183 is a very interesting aircraft. It may not have ever flown and was only drawings and models, but its design is very familiar. It is thought that the Ta-183’s design inspired that of the Mig-15, the SAAB-29, the Dassault Ouragan, and the F-84. All of which have suspiciously similar appearances. Perhaps in Operation Paperclip some Nazi scientists were scooped up by both sides and their atrocities were ignored or pardoned and they were pressed into service on both sides of the Iron Curtain conducting research for the looming Cold War and the arms race and space race that soon followed.

    The further back the gun the more the tank has to expose itself to shoot and the longer it takes to fire whether from elevation or from a corner, some tried to do front mounted turret like the Char 2Bis or TOG2 but it always result in a ridiculously long tank or a small gun to balance the heavy front

    The F35/JSF could have been a 35 million USD 5th gen multirole single engine aircraft without all these issues, and only slightly inferior in air to air to the F22. If only they had ditched the idea to also have it take off vertically or launch from a carrier. All they had to do is hire some MSc students to use aerodynamic software to design an airframe that is both a good performance as an aircraft, and has some stealth. And then make a very reliable cheap aircraft that can give a pilot a lot of flight hours. Instead, they tried to create an overengineered abomination that on paper can do everything, but in reality can't do anything. The US is lucky that allies are still buying the F35, else it would have been more expensive than the F22. With all our simulation software, it is extremely easy to design an aircraft that is maneuverable, is fast, and handles well. With the F35, they failed on two of those. And the stealth doesn't match the profile of a cheap multirole aircraft that US allies can use. Why do they need a plane that can penetrate deep into Chinese radar and then throw two bombs? Doesn't make sense. On a carrier, you need a large wing double engine fighter. WTF are you even considering a modern semi-stealth multirole fighter for a carrier role? Doesn't many any sense. STUPID!

    "Second only to F-22 in Air Superiority" None of these fighter ever peted against any opponent of any generation. F-35 saw only a few bomb runs over poor and war torned nations like Iraq, F-22 saw a few order of magnitude more action in Hollywood than all of it's patrol duties combined. Given the poor aerodynamics, large maintenance cost and poor readyness ratio, the superiority claim is probably another "myth".
