      It is necessary to "cannibalize" it (in American terminology), that is, to use it for spare parts ... There will be less in the ranks. Or write it off altogether.
      The pilot is alive, but the hardware has been spoiled a little - there is zero tragedy in this news, and there is reason for optimism!

      But ... Dreams-dreams. Will restore. Although it has a special coating, and the racks may no longer be produced. In his sediment tank!

        Damage to the fuselage is minimal there (judging by the photo, most likely only the fairing). The cover will be restored, but nothing has done to the rack. Most likely it didn’t stand on the lock and broke (not to be confused with broke off) IMHOhi

      Hard to tell. Judging by the photo, it may have landed for a long time. In general, the figures are optimistic - out of 250 built, 125 in the ranks. I wonder where the second half is?))))

      The old man B-52 over Europe had a pair of engines out of order. The plane circled Britain, producing fuel, and then made an emergency landing at RAF Mildenhall. They are going to scare the Russians, yeah ... First reach Davis-Monsen

    The belly is scratched, nothing will be sealed with electrical tape, it will fly as good as new. Another thing seems to be how all the raptors have recently been modernized, isn't it a mistake of the "modernizers"?

    In the past, the Americans offered many green candy wrappers for hijacking our MiG-15 (although they had their own good Saber), offered for the MiG-21 (although they had their own Phantom), offered for the MiG-25 (although they had their own excellent F- 14, F-15, SR-71), and received. Can the "responsible" persons of the Russian Federation organize something similar in relation to the F-22? It will be cheaper than cutting money for AL-31/41 ... Pure neighing. Let their amerskie anus strain!
