We need to triple our defense spending immediately.

[QUOTE=booster;34032197]ok[/QUOTE] "HUHUHUHUHU IM TRULLING"
Every thing I've seen has led me to believe that Russia's military is pretty damn good already. I mean sure, a lot of what they are using is the same or slightly updated stuff from the cold war, but that's because it still does it's job well (AK platform, the Mi-24, the T-90). As long as I have not been mislead, I would say that that money would be better spent fixing some of Russia's [i]other[/i] problems. [QUOTE=Recco;34032057]Fat Americans invaded this thread saying "lol russia fuk u nubs usa is da best xD". I'm not surprised.[/QUOTE] Come on, fat? You can do better than that.
This is the Cold War in reverse, they're trying to get us to up our defense spending until we go broke. Well, broke-er.
It's funny, because a big factor of the USSR failing was that a disproportionately large amount of money was spent on Defense while infrastructure and other things were left behind. I guess history repeats itself.
no doubt some russian politician somewhere is now a billionaire because of this.
Inoffensive little Baltic nation represent. :saddowns:

[QUOTE=Paravin;34030313]They could rather use the 600Bn to root out their god damn corruption problems, repair/create infrastructure and fix the problems in their society. But no - put more money in the war machine so you can jam your military penis in the neighboring countries.[/QUOTE] You're asking a corrupt government to spend money on itself to root out its corruption.
[QUOTE=billyjohn86;34030993]Russia's Su-34 is superior to the F-18 [/QUOTE] You're comparing a ground attack plane to a multirole fighter? [QUOTE=billyjohn86;34030993]Oh and the M1, [b]F-18[/b] are both cold war tanks. [/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=RAG Frag;34032618]You're comparing a ground attack plane to a multirole fighter?[/QUOTE] Well I referred to the F-18 as a tank so no.

[QUOTE=GVG-Vit;34030958]T-90 was developed in USSR, not in modern Russia. Their military is all soviet and they could not develop something new for 20 years. M1 is ok. Does it's work. F-18 is ok too but don't forget about F-22 and others. There is no Russian competitor here. Su-47 isn't discounted, it's under eternal "development".[/QUOTE] You are wrong. T-72BU was made under soviet union by Uralvagonzavod in Tagil that is located on [I]Russian[/I] territory now. In 1992 it was accepted as T-90, that was [I]after[/I] the fall of the Soviet Union. Currently Russia have T-90A version which features [I]upgraded[/I] electronics and sights and a new turret. To my knowledge , Ukraine has only outdated T-55s,T-64s, T-72s and only 10 modern T-84s in service. Talking about military budget.
[QUOTE=V12US;34030379]Excuse me Princess, we're talking about Russia here. Not the US.[/QUOTE] [I]Yeah[/I] silly, Russia doesn't have "infrastructure", and individuals in government can only be corrupt if their is someone in government isn't corrupt, so Russia doesn't have that either.
[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;34033224][I]Yeah[/I] silly, Russia doesn't have "infrastructure", and individuals in government can only be corrupt if their is someone in government isn't corrupt, so Russia doesn't have that either.[/QUOTE] Did you understood what you just said? Because I didn't. [editline]3rd January 2012[/editline] Also it's "there" not "their". You've got English as your primary language, not me.
lol oops For there to be an infrastructure to repair there has to be an infrastructure, and for there to be corruption to fix there has to be someone in there government that isn't corrupt. Also English isn't my first language but that's a shitty excuse so whatever.
Implying that Russia have no infrastructure is retarded. A single road from place A to place B is already infrastructure. Implying that Russia don't have a single non-corrupt politician is just as retarded. Without it, Russia would fall apart. inb4 snarky comments about how Russia is falling apart. It's not. Russia is a fully functional country, not particularly good but functional.
Relax bud it was a joke in response to a joke good god.
after Russia's failure in Chechnya i can see why this would happen

It was not fucking union like EU, it was a country, one solid country with one government. After fall of USSR everything went to shit including education. In 90s there was massive immigration wave, many engineers immigrated from post-soviet countries to US, Israeli and some to Europe. Everything made in USSR was much better compared to anything made nowadays on it's territory. Soviet engineers left Russia and Ukraine and there is no one to develop anything new. PS I hope Ukrainian army will go to hell soon. They even don't have fuel to run tanks. :v: [IMG]http://www.apacheclips.com/boards/attachment.php?attachmentid=1131&stc=1&d=1249936160[/IMG] <3
Our two tanks are russian tanks found in a god damn swamp. Beat that.

[QUOTE=Paravin;34033889]Our two tanks are russian tanks found in a god damn swamp. Beat that.[/QUOTE] Nope, we have 3 tanks: -1st tank can shoot, but can't drive. -2nd tank can't shoot, but it can drive. -3rd tank neither moves or shoots. :v:
