That was screenshot I made and saved (when I was creating thread ) but I didnt save link.

Search on google ,why do you need link anyway ?

Link is required to make sure that it's from more or less reliable source and that it is not someone's opinion in a blog post.

Lack of creativity ! Japan has superheroes, America has Superheroes, England has 007, every damn country has superheroes, only russia doesnt , They cant create fiction figures, what makes you think they can create bombs.

It is because Russia has real superheroes like Putin.

Besides that there was literally a comic about captain Russia in an alternate universe and comicbooks about superheroes are typical American marvel and dc. Why would they make superhero comics about Russia and besides that pretty sure Russia got their own shows and comics. It is just that you can't speak Russian and make dumb comments like this since you can find Russian comics too

American tank pic above got changed for Russian tank during the vietnam war by the americans themself. That says enough right?

I see M16 in the pic but I don't see tanks. And source/link, stating that they changed American tanks to Russian tanks in Vietnam and that the primary reason for that was that Russian tanks were better?

Do you really think that I or @ Filosoofis make up those claims . I read news about this stuff everyday you cant expect from me to save each link.

I have heard of that what Filosoofis is talking about and I know its true.

Assuming that the link provides accurate data, USA is 1st and Russia is 2nd in current military capabilities and available firepower for 2016. However I often see people hyping it up to be best in the world i.e. better than US.

They were face to face with USA back on the days of Cold War but after Soviet Union fell USA took the upper hand but they've been coming out of it after Putin came to power even though they ranked 2nd that's some military power they've .

I cant find original but I find different link with same statement that Satan can destroy new york state

Moscow’s primary deterrent weapon is the mighty SS-18, a single one of which can destroy an area the size of New York – the state, not just the city. To get an idea of the destructive power of the SS-18, just look at the nuclear weapon the US used to destroy the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. The Hiroshima bomb was a primitive 15 kiloton warhead and yet it wiped out a city of 70,000 in a few seconds. The SS-18 – code named Satan by NATO – carries 10 warheads, each having a yield of 750 to 1000 kiloton). Some of these missiles carry a single 20,000 kiloton warhead – that’s 1333 times Hiroshima.

Both of you guys seem very pro-russian, therefore I have to take your words with a pinch of salt.

Sounds reasonable.

I cant deny that but that doesnt mean that we talk BS.

I didn't say you talk BS, but I need proof.

It is obvious they lack conventional military superiority. Their dire conditions of economy is not helping to overtake NATO in every aspect. That is why they boast their nuclear arsenal. When it comes to nukes those disadvantages wont matter.

Truth is that the only thing being outdated is the tale of Russian Military being outdated. You could have been right in 2002, or even in 2008, but I can assure you this is not the case. We already discussed about it.
Actually, when Russia attacked Georgia in 2008 their equipment was still pretty old, as stated from United Nations observers. But go watch what did NATO think about the equipment Russains used in Syria this year.

Meanwhile NATO activated missile defense systems in Romania and encircling Russia.

So scared of a country which uses such old weapons? This is not like that, modernization is a fact now. Could I ask you where do you get your information?

Basically every other news website
Videos of syrian operation on
Liveleak
RT
Russian Ministry of defense
Why does a source of information matters to see former superpower using it's cold war weaponry on snackbaring fanatics.

Because it's a current superpower using modern weaponry ;) or maybe you believe U.S. Armed Forces only use super modern weapons.

Old? Not really. F16 was made in '70, does that mean that F16 in US army are old? Russians are using some really good equipment in Syria.

And Poland. And as a polish citizen I dont like it at all. We are only making ourselves a target for russian missiles, nothing more. A war between NATO and Russia would destroy both sides, there would be no winners. There is no other option.

They are, compared to the Su-30s. even raptor is very older. Well fighters go modernization stages in their lifetime. The point is, Russia used many of it's cold war bombers, which was logical since there is no air resistance but in a war with US or other country that would not be the case. But there is nothing special in it, as I said before former superpower using its cold war weaponary.

Missile defense gives forward warning plus Russia will have more targets, while US will have to target only Russia. I dnt think there is any good way to the countries which are in border with Russia. It is hard to not to become *****es of one of the two players.

Planes are upgradet as the time goes. F-16 are astill very, very good planes. We have F16 Block52+ in polish army and they will be in service for a long time.

It seems that some idiots in US really believes that nuclear war can be won.

There is. For example, Hungary prime minister Orban is doing really good job in that regard.
