Russian radars can detect and track every aircraft in the US arsenal.


As much as no aircraft is undetectable, there are aircrafts that would have long gone before the S400 detect it was ever there...

These are state of the art stealth, tested and trusted aircrafts..
1. B2 spirit
2. SR71
3. F22 Raptor
4. F35B

These aircrafts are engineering marvel..

Let it be known the US refused to sell the F22 Raptor, infact Congress made a law banning it's sales because of its sophistication...

Ignorance is indeed a disease.

The same China that copied about 80% of all Russian aircrafts, missiles, military equipments and submarines?

China that buys fighter jets, bombers, submarines, heavy engines and industrial plants from Russia? Lmaoo

Russia is currently building nuclear power plants in China. And Russia also helped China build their first nuclear bomb.

Russia is far ahead of China militarily. This is why the US always talks about competing or going to war with China but NEVER with Russia.
don’t mind them most of these kids In nairaland don’t know who ussr is, all they know is America well I blame the media

And it will be shot down as well.

Russia has the top 2 best air defense systems in the world. No country on earth has anything remotely similar.

Why do you think Turkey bought the S-400 despite sanctions from the US & NATO?
Were where they, when Ukraine attacked parts of Russia? Una jokes too funny abeg

you know better than the u.s ??...Definitely no aircraft is completely undetectable...With the naked eyes/sound it easily be spotted but thats for low range fly by...When the air craft is up in the sky, is extremely difficult to detect the B2 spirit.
You also know a lot about aircrafts undecided
Re: Russia Shoots Down US F-16 Fighter Jet In Ukraine, Pilot Killed (Photos) by Ibime(m): 5:36pm On Apr 14, 2025
F16 has been flying for months and this is the first one shot down

Russian plane dare not take to the air over Ukrainian skies, that's a sure death sentence for the pilot. Once they sight them, they light them without wahala

From that, you can determine how superior F16 is to any Russian plane

This Battle will be between US and Russia.
Putin is smarter than the west. He knows Trump is trying to play on his intelligence

How w do you stop a war and your soldiers will remain in Ukraine because of Rear earth? Meanwhile Putin said he does not want any foreign soldier on Ukraineer soil because it violates the truce they had after ww2

It is a US F-16 just as your TV is probably Korean TV or Chinese TV...lol

In the military insignia is very important.....reporting that a Ukrainian F-16 was shot down is true and very different to US F-16.

Because weapon manufactures are very few....the world knows F-16s are US technology but many countries have bought F-16s sometimes with specific requirements. All F-16s are not the same.

The headline is wrong...it is Ukrainian F-16 that was shot down not US F-16
USA donated most of these weapons and planes to Ukraine recently as a result of the on going war, not like Ukraine bought it from USA. So, it belongs to USA

Plenty story no dey full basket.

After all that long talk, it still remains a US aircraft. Supplied, operated and maintained by the US.
You're now alleging the pilot a US pilot. Any proof?

Re: Russia Shoots Down US F-16 Fighter Jet In Ukraine, Pilot Killed (Photos) by Danmisra(m):
I'm just thinking what's going in the minds of F-16 Ukrainian pilots.
S-400 can track F-35 this is why US is afraid of Turkey, check media sources to verify to his fact.
Some Russian billionaires stake money or price for any person who shots down F-16, check to verify.
F-35 have a lot of problems, like high maintenance, operational cost, spare part, upgrade, about 500 technical issues and very expensive this is why other nations are abandoning it for other fighter jets.
If truly F-35 is invincible, US would have given it to Ukrain.
F-35 is just effective against countries that have no S-400

👍🏻 Like for Russia-Putin, share for USA/Nazi/NATO
The world, NATO, Europe, UK, Ukraine, US have not seen anything yet.
Putin is not yet ready to play or reveal his hand.
He is keeping all the aces to himself.
If he wanted to run over Ukraine quickly, it would be a smooth ride in at most a matter of months.
But he is smartly playing a game of hide and seek.
By the time Russia reveals herself in this game of war, those seeking to see too much will hide their faces in shame.
Long live Putin!
Long live Mother Russia!
