Xbee007:Spare me that BullSh1t, why didn't the Colombian government win the war? The signed a truce because both sides became war weary, if not for the truce, the war can go on for another 50 years, which will make it 100 years of fighting, A well placed RPG shot brings that bird down. Keep on gloating about mere scraps. What happened to the Chengdus or Sukhois from China and Russia? |

deomelllo:I wish you posted the beginning of the Wikipedia page you culled this image from. I know about Jets more than you do, I even wanted to make a home made jet engine, only that money and time are not my friends, but I have been gathering materials, especially old turbo chargers. |

the Super Tucanos, sensors, training and support, is valued at $564 million $564 MILLION FOR 12 PROPELLER TRAINER AIRCRAFT? That cost only $9million a piece in the real world. Only Nigerian Govt will pay so much for so less, and thump their chest. 9 months from now they will be rotting at NAF Zaria |

Jbfranklin:What you guys don't understand is that every aircraft has a purpose for which it was built. Some aircraft are Trainer Aircraft, Interceptors, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, Long range bomber, transport aircraft and logistics, Close Air Support, Ground Attack, Fighter Aircraft, Air Superiority Aircraft etc... Some aircrafts have combination of these capabilities hence they are called Multirole Aircrafts. Others with single capability are called Single-role Aircraft. What if I tell you that the A29 Super Tucano is better than an F16 at what it does? 1. It is used for reconnaissance: it can stay over your head monitoring your movement for several hours without you knowing. It can fly in all whether even at night. 2. It is used for CAS: Every soldier's morale will be boosted knowing that there is an eye in the sky watching over them. They can call for airstrikes within minutes. It is very necessary in war against BHT. We all hear tales of soldiers battling terrorists for several hours without any Air support. 3. It is very cheap: Do you know how much it cost to keep a F16, Rafael, or SU35 in the air per hour? A-29 doesn't even need a standard runway to fly and land. It can land on your village road and remain intact. It average speed is 323mph. 4. It fields modern avionics: It FLIR pods allow it to fly comfortably at night and can see every warm blooded animals with its infrared cameras. 5. Countermeasures: It has countermeasures against incoming threat such as RPGs, guided missiles etc. It is exactly what we need. 2 Likes

You guyz foolishness aches and painfully, you all go proud about it like it's nothing to birth some sleeplessness. Let this be known to you that I AM NOT A DEFENDER OF ANY GOVERNMENT FROM WHATEVER PARTY FOR TO ME, THEY ARE ALL BUNCH OF USELESS HUMAN ENTITIES. I commend what worth commending. Nor b me cause una tribal and religion differences so load your problem for head like cargo and stay off my mention oga. |

Xbee007:I do agree with you when it comes they affordability , they price is a wow!.. but you overestimated it . you said something about they YF-16 well I don't practically agree with your comparison between they super tuncano and YF-16 (well a debate per se) ...YF-16 or any turbo jet driven aircraft is highly and largely greater than your normal propeller driven jet especially they "Tucano" in stealth and all they points you laid out in especially air combat trainingthis quote.. I totally agree with you when it comes to affordability cause that shit cost millions of dollars atleast (34.9mil ) from my last check , an then they maintainance fund screams a fortune I am an aircraft fanactic flying is my hobby , I love they air .... even though I don't have they opportunity to fly I still pursue my dream... I like your interest in planes and would like your advice cause am trying to build one... |
