All taken in the Almaty area, enjoy!


Mees

That does not look even remotely like the B-1.

Is it supposed to then?

Is it supposed to then?

the russians are like microsoft, never had an origional idea in their life (a few exceptions but you get what im sayin )

Exeption: AK-47?

Mees, not that I dislike these shots but I know you can do a lot better!

She is a beauty though

Straying a little, but you must be mad!

B-1B
Tu-160

Top down/underside views are virtually identical!

Tu-160 looks better, anyway. 8-)

The tupelov is more complex, twice as fast and holds a lot more payload than the B-1. The B-1 was introduced in 1986, the Tupelov in 1987. I doubt you can call it a "copy" as such (its a bit hard to copy a complete aircraft within a year  :P)

As for Russians copying technology, Russian fighters have had 3D jet vectoring for decades before the US even attempted 2D thrust vectoring, I wonder who's copying?  :P

By the way, that first and last shots are absolutely stunning!

Cheers

Exeption: AK-47?

Nope.

Mhmm, MP44, But which one of either is more widely used?

I do believe he was being sarcastic.

The russian language is pretty original (i.e. infuriatingly complicated). I should know. I just started learning it.

I do believe he was joking.

Who was joking?

I really have started to learn russian!! I can't get a russian alphabet on this computer but I can type in english;

strasvooytye

means

hello

pronounced;

stras - vwie - tye

There you go. That's quite enogh brain excercise for me today.
