Also, did you also know that USAF pilots have to spend a maximum of 4 years in the services. Their first year, they don't even fly, and so that is 3 years of flying. Russian pilots cannot leave until the Air Force lets them go. Their training is too expensive and too precious. The average Russian pilot has been flying 12 years, with Mig-31 pilots averaging over 20 years and Mig-29 pilots around 8. The average Russian pilot has had more time in a combat aircraft then 3 average USAF pilots. This is despite getting less flight time per year.

Don't spread information that you don't know. This is completely WRONG! You mean it's the other way around. Most of the US air shoot down was not by Air-to-Air, but by ground SAM and AAA. I have posted in the forum link to stats website about this. Unfortunately I have also not found anything from the USSR side.

I think you got this totally wrong. I watched alot of Discovery TV, what you mean is that the NATO would have all their air plane shoot down in 17 days! I remember hearding something like that. This does not mean they have LOSS the war. NO ONE has ever said that NATO/USA would lose the War in 17 days, that would just be a stupid statement.

Totally wrong! Look at the Vietnam war, Afghanistan war and the Iraq War. You still have to take the ground and control it.

As for the statistics from Vietnam; they are solid, they are taught to US fighter pilots and this is largely due to the fact that the Vietnamese airforce was that small that US pilots would very rarely engage a Vietnamese aircraft. Most who were shot down had spent their entire career escorting bombers without incident. Meanwhile the Vietnamese pilots were flying better planes and usually were only sent in when they had a better chance of winning. The ratio was 4 to 1 and while this includes US bombers, transports and helicopters this hardly makes up for the fact that the US lost more in aerial battles then a tiny nation like Vietnam.
