Excuses



P.s. Malaysia is like budak kecik always complain why need follow mama papa rules. Sedangkan fama yang provide sara hidup. Ada hati mau berdikari, get out there and fucking do it, tak payah nak cakap banyak. Tak larat then sombong tu simpan skit, diam2 je lah makan gaji

point is they are there

it's not utterly, completely, irretrievably useless - eg 1979 Iran Revolution, IrAF F-15 combat record is when?

also, I'm not just making a point about one single item or even solely in defence industry

songlap

more different product = more supplier = more agent = more commission spread out to more crony, same story with us, and better still if change more equipment more often

buying from UK instead of US is pointless since they are each other's closest allies, 1 embargo the other sure follow. as the Argentinians learned in 1982

end of the day, if we want to go independent, just go and prove ourselves. but if we are forced to beg people from help, don't muka hitam, don't need to talk so much cock and bite the hand that feeds

if Malaysia benci sangat can just give back those Scaneagles

oh sorry

black market parts and LOTS of cannibalisation. also debatably still in service now - from 80 aircraft plus spares can't be more than maybe 10-15 operational now.

but they did great vs Iraqis

Lolwut

Firstly, records of embargoes are published and easily accessed, you go see if India has been embargoed

Furthermore US India defence relations have been climbing since at least 2005 and now are at an all time high

Madey is telling half truths

Yes control is limited

No it doesnt mean you can't use it to attack US or US-made assets

You may have partly limited functionality and you will definitely incur their blacklisting (no shit!) if you go against their interests

But it's not UTTERLY IMPOSSIBLE. Hell if it's physically impossible then there will be no such thing as blue on blue!

Those "sources" you read are to be blunt bullshit

Boring still has to go through US Govt strictly speaking

Depends what model

Ours have been quite well-upgraded
