If you want to get enlighten them good.
But here is my point, the said Aircraft was bought for insurgent war like someone said, which is not a problem, but argument here is that if it was for conventional warfare with Mig-29 or F-16, it stands no chance.

Because those have powerful radars compared to Tuc.And can Dec text and struck from a great distance.

We buy weapons to fight ourselves. The manufacturers of these weapons never develop it to fight themselves. Only in Africa and Arab nations will you see Nations buying arms to kill their fellow citizens in d name of peace - ...and do you know what we have in common with the Arabs? Extremely Religious people.

Quote me anywhere, If you want to know who funds and sponsors terrorism in your country, then look no further than the group of interests who come to pressurise you to buy their arms. If you refuse to buy their arms? Then watch Lord of War to know the consequences of refusal.


If you have watched Nicolas Cage as the arms dealer in Lord of War, you will realise why gorilla warfare will never end in 3rd world and Arab nations and thereafter you will have a rethink.
Sell legally to the government and collect cash, sell illegaly (By private plane drop offs etc) to the terrorists and collect raw materials. When both sides end up destroying themselves, do you know who Inherits the earth?


Arms dealers shall Inherit the earth was the last sentence in that movie.

Naptu2, I’m just laughing as I read through this thread. Wasn’t it last year you schooled some people here about the Tucano Aircrafts? People just like displaying ignorance at every given opportunity.

Racoon:
Tuscano jets being produced by the US? I trust you.It must be something interesting.Fingers cross.

naptu2:
Before you make a comment on this thread, first try and find out about these things:


1) The difference between a turboprop and a jet.


2) Counter-Insurgency Operations (COIN).

3) Ground attack aircraft

4) Loiter time


5) The difference between a Tucano and a Super Tucano (so that you'll know why it was bought from the US and not Brazil).

6) The history of the Super Tucano (so that you won't say that it's a World War 2 plane).
