#8  The S-400? When served by highly trained Russian technicians, it ignores Israeli bombers. When served by anyone less trained, it ignores being turned on. Design specs and actual performance are not always the same thing.

AKs, on the other hand, always do exactly what they are supposed to do — shoot fairly well under all circumstances, no matter how badly the user abuses them. Or so I’ve read, not having ever seen one in real life.

And Mexico is a beautiful country full of wonderful people... who sadly have never found politicians capable of running the country properly — which is why Aca Joe claims to live in the expensive part of Malibu instead of any of the prettier parts of the country he claims as his own. It is not we who insist that Mexico is inferior to the U.S., but demonstrated by his own actions.

#7  The Turks know very well, that the S.400 has a certified history of reliability and success for the price.

Tell me about it!

What a bleedin' anarchist farce,
this State of Mehico, land of sparse.
The Spaniards were lax in laying axe,
to the root of this horrendous tree
that grew outta Huitzilopotchli's arse.

#4  ^ comes from Mexico? I did time in Korea in the late 80s. The place was leveled by the war, without any natural resources, very limited farm land, small population, about the size of Kansas and yet today they're a major country by GDP. Mexico on the other hand sports vast natural resources, vast agricultural land, a much larger population and is yet three positions back from South Korea in GDP.
Go clean your own country up you windbag before passing judgement on others. It's why millions of illegals move on to America rather than hang around Mexico. It's utterly corrupt like your opinions.

#1  Wonder if the Turks got a discount as performance demonstrated so far hasn't been up that mentioned in the brochure.
