  1. Shows up to the battlefield
    Hotboxes their tank and doesn't participate in the combat
    Refuse to elaborate further
    Leaves.

    Iconic.

    Also the sheer overwhelming force of American air power never ceases to amaze me. We have more 5th gen fighters than most of our contemporaries have aircraft period. Wild.

  2. History must never forget that USA created ISIS, that USA destroyed Syria and stole their OIL.
    Bashar al-assad and Russia was the good guys while the US and ISIS was the bad guys.
    Before USA destroyed Syria it was a prosperous nation with highly educated people.

  3. Americans are so weak and pathetic and have 0 historical heritage to be proud of that they need to invent stories in their head to cope due to russians being just naturally superior in everything.

  4. So just to get it right. Russia basically green flagged PMC/Syrian move. Promised cover and then just handed them over to US air power from minute one… Russian Geo politics are some kind -2 D chess

  5. You know "The Kid" (F-22s) was up there wishing a MotherEffer would… Meanwhile Buff gets to stretch his legs and turn some desert to glass.

    "Just give me a reason… I'll even let you take the first TWO shots!!! I'd intercept me…"

  6. I think that the fact that we can tell one soldier is handing the other, an offbrand, Snickers is severely overlooked. Think about that for a minute and what that means about our technology on the ground I just finished the video but that piece it’s really sticking out for me right now.. Now realize that the F 22 the greatest flying ship we have on the news, was built in the 90s 30 something years ago. I don’t think people understand what types of technology are real out there in the world and it’s awesome but also terrifying.

  7. Awesome video TOR — fascinating to think about how direct combat can happen between major powers if it is deniable (similar instances in Vietnam, I think?) Can't wait for more!
