The arguments here are predominantly between Putin bots on one side and cold war fantasists on the other side. We quickly go off topic regardless of the meticulous nature of Tyler’s work. It is essentially a ‘my country better than yours’ shouting match.

I know that, you know that, Putin knows that, but speculators don’t.

I think this is a good assessment. It was becoming pretty apparent that the regime was starting to get a bad case of victory decease/dreams of revenge; their recent comments on negotiations can be paraphrased as “Why talk when we are finally winning”? It’s clear that Russia had no desire to back Assad’s bloody,…

So what you’re saying is while everyone was playing checkers, Putin was playing chess all along. You sure Putin isn’t SoFlo?

Wow, a country that uses creative strategies.

Honestly at this point any resolution to the atrocities going on over there is welcome, regardless of who brokered it.

Even if it’s just the Assad regime and the rebels coming to an agreement it’ll end some of the issues and then maybe they can focus on the ISIS. I won’t hold my breath though...

I meant it as a postive differentiator in this case.

I honestly don’t know for sure. I think it might have been a post about autonomous cars and I wrote a long rant about how we’re all going to be tracked by the government. It got like 200 replies and turned into a big flame war which I mostly stayed out of. Like, I didn’t log in for more than a day and I saw 150…

Yeah, ditto. Jalopnik in general has gone to shit (and not just because they demoted me to a grey commenter). FA and Black Flag are pretty much the best sub-blogs they have going. I also enjoy The Garage with Tavarish occasionally, but it’s not as good as I thought it was going to be when they launched it.

Well done Russia. Well done.

I don’t mind the articles, but that was pretty damn funny.

The Flankers have a shitton of range, mostly through brute-forcing more fuel onto the jet - The -27 has almost as much fuel as the Eagle does with two bags! That doesn’t include huge centerline fuel tanks like you frequently see on the Su-34.

Foxtrot Alpha is unavailable for comment at this time, it is to busy fapping on Russia and A-10s.

I know right? It’s laughable, these different cultures and tastes.

Your credit card number and the deed to your house. Also, your daughters hand in marriage.

Might be why their birth rate sucks so badly.

Well, you could see why people that grew up with this shit would get confused ...

Why does it bother you so much? There are plenty of shitty articles popping out on Jalopnik, so why do you people keep whining about some good, quality and informative journalism that Foxtrot Alpha is (70% of the time, but ultimately better than 70% of the stuff on Jalopnik)?

God, the Su-34 is a cool plane. Little awkward in the looks department, but I don’t mind it.

So long, suckers!
