Why is everyone so surprised that a Russain company made the American planes suck?

then we are done with this thread, because that counters all your statements.

So the P51-B sucks, the P51-D sucks and the B17 falls out of the sky by simply looking at it funny.

YET

The IL-10 is for all intents and purposes invinicble and has a rear auto gunner like a sniper on steriods, the YAK's can out turn even small birds.

And all of this is a simple accident and has nothing to do with a bit of bias?

How I wish I could live in the blinkered world too!

Edit - Exactly when dd they fix the P51? As at today its still slow and wing overs if you apply even the smallest nudge on the rudder and stalls at anything under 300mph?
