      Everybody is pretty like "Oh ok that's cool I guess" until they realise the f-22, the deadliest non classified fighter in service, was made in the late 80s. Around 40 years before that jets were extremely primitive, imagine what they have now.

    nothing ever last forever
    everybody wants to rule the world"
    freedom finally came crashing down and even the soviet union didnt last forever like everyone expected
    "holding hands while the walls come tumbling down"

      The thing is, the freedom won`t be forever as well. Because of, yet again - Everybody wants to rule the world. One tyrannies disappear, making space for future dictators to appear.
      Free countries may be easily corrupted to the wishes of an oligarchs, autocrats, since they would easily forget in 50 years what they fought against back then. What walls had they brought down. What ideals they helped to rise. What value carry democracy and freedom for the people...
      USSR collapse wasn`t expected by most. To reform, to transform into a confederacy, to throw away communism? Perhaps, but not to completely dissolve. Because of it, we allowed half of newly-independent states to embrace anti-democratic regimes, as in Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine (2010-2014), Turkmenistan... And thats even ignoring putin!

      @jlight7346 10 місяців тому +9

      @@m.damarsr9863Oh it’s definitely less than one hour of actual combat per mission. Probably close to 10-30 minutes total depending on what the mission is. The rest of the 2-8 hours is just flying around. Now this is really only representative of lower intensity conflicts or something like the Gulf War where it was such a stomp that you never really saw much retaliation. In a full on world war between major powers, I’d imagine the amount of combat time per sortie would go up.
      I’d also like to point out that I’m not a pilot. However, I do personally know several and have played my fair share of sims.

    Welcome to your life there's no turning back
    Even while we sleep we will find
    You acting on your best behavior
    Turn your back on mother nature
    Ev'rybody wants to rule the world
    It's my own desire, it's my own remorse
    Help me to decide, help me make the most
    Of freedom and of pleasure
    Nothing ever lasts forever
    Everybody wants to rule the world
    There's a room where the light won't find you
    Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
    When they do, I'll be right behind you
    So glad we've almost made it
    So sad they had to fade it
    Ev'rybody wants to rule the world
    I can't stand this indecision
    Married with a lack of vision
    Everybody wants to rule the world
    Say that you'll never, never, never, need it
    One headline, why believe it?
    Everybody wants to rule the world
    Of freedom and of pleasure
    Nothing ever lasts forever
    Everybody wants to rule the world
