Aquila, I'd like to introduce our newest member, WO 2 Mario "Poker" Stahan from Croatia. Mario saw us on ACS and decided to apply. You have have noticed him around the recruit area where he has been checking us out. He has the legacy series of games and does not have PS3 or XBOX.

Welcome Mario!

Anyway, FG, you forgot to give me permission to the "family" part of this Wing.

Nah, we all can choose what we like.

No, seriously though, it's all about the Eagle. :P

You two are wrong, It's all about the HAWK! :woohoo:

LOL, kidding.

There are some good Russians planes that are in my "favorite" list(the Su-37 "Terminator", MIG-1.44), but still there are more American planes that I like(like F-15C, F-16, F-22, F-18).

Only Mig-21bis. There are very old, almost 10-15 years old. Nothing to be jealous, really.

A few interesting tidbits on the MiG-21 from Wiki-

Quote:
 

* The fighter has the distinction of holding a number of modern aviation records; it is the most produced supersonic jet aircraft in aviation history, the most produced combat aircraft since the Korean War, and it had the longest production run of a combat aircraft (1959 to 1985 over all variants).

* Two MiG-21s were shot down by U.S. Air Force B-52 Stratofortress tail gunners, the only confirmed air-to-air kills by the B-52. The first was on 18 December 1972, downed by tail gunner SSgt Samuel Turner, who was awarded the Silver Star for his feat. The second shoot-down took place on December 24, 1972, when A1C Albert E. Moore downed a MiG-21 over the Thai Nguyen railroad yards, also as part of Operation Linebacker II.

Two days after the second shootdown, a VPAF MiG-21MF flown by Phạm Tuân over Hanoi, North Vietnam on 26 December 1972 was responsible for the only claimed air combat kill of a U.S. Air Force B-52 Stratofortress in history. The B-52 had been circling above Hanoi during Operation Linebacker II.

* Croatia acquired three MiG-21s in 1992 through defections by Croatian pilots serving with the JNA, two of which were lost in subsequent actions - one to Serbian air defenses, the other in a friendly fire accident. In 1993, Croatia purchased about 40 MiG-21s in violation of arms embargo, but only about 20 of these entered service, while the rest were used for spare parts. Croatia used them alongside the sole remaining defector for ground attack missions in operations Flash (during which one was lost) and Storm. The only air to air action for Croatian MiGs was an attempt by two of them to intercept J-22 Oraos of Republika Srpska Air Force on ground attack mission on 7th of August 1995. After some maneuvering both sides disengaged without having fired a single bullet.
