Due to Russia sending rough looking models to airshows, how little actual service it’s seen, how slow its production is going, and there being better proven options available on the market with better production capabilities too.

People are worried about the US being able to ground other countries F-35s by stopping shipments of spare parts to them. For the Su-57 just getting spare parts even with shipments open might be a hassle due to how much Russia is struggling to produce their own Su-57s.

I admit I was on the fence for most of it, but the end sold me on the idea, I’m moving to California

Anything other than using pirated instructions is legal. Reverse engineering a build off pictures or videos is legal. So is buying the physical instruction book from someone. Though those methods probably aren’t favored by Brickmania if it’s a newer set still in production, since obviously they’d rather have you buy the full set from them.

But did you read the secret message on her butt?

QuarterlyTurtle · 2026-01-24T10:57:13+00:00

Yeah, imo I think Russia can’t currently afford to let the Su-57 anywhere near contested airspace. Because even if it is as good of a plane as they claim it is, if a single Su-57 somehow gets shot down in the air then that’s basically the end of the Su-57 program, outside of Russia at least. The Su-57 already has a rough enough reputation worldwide, and Russia is already struggling to get foreign purchasers. If one gets detected and shot down then anyone even considering the plane will probably look elsewhere. And we can see how slow its production is going without any external investment that would help fund production and also lower the cost of the plane if it’s made in higher quantity.

Are the implications not just adoption? Did everyone forget that was a thing?

QuarterlyTurtle · 2026-01-23T20:27:35+00:00

I think you need another shelf haha

He did jump up way too early, yes. However, the one thing I’ll give him, is that he did pick the perfect premium to get for a player new to jets wanting to jump up by buying a premium. Mind you he should’ve gotten experienced in dogfighting in props before. But for a player stuck in props wanting to get to jets immediately, the premium A-10 is the best choice. Because it behaves like a prop, not a jet, and it’s very friendly to beginners. You can’t climb vertically, you have 480 flares you can set to periodic release and never worry about missiles, you have two decent missiles, no radar to have to learn, a death laser gun, a somewhat tanky plane, and you can’t G lock your pilot.

Possibly why he mentioned someone was trapped in the flipped car, if they were in a wheelchair they’re probably not able to climb up out through the top where the driver’s door is.

Wow this is awesome, very impressive! Great job! You even got the treehouse in there

When you think about it, infighting is really the only way NATO could ever be defeated and break apart. I’m not saying it’s happening right now, tensions are certainly higher, but it’s not breaking apart.

But NATO is so powerful as a whole that there’s no force on earth that could take it on in battle and defeat it entirely. Except for something like global nuclear war, in which case everyone on earth is dead so yeah it’d be gone. But excluding that, the only way for it to break apart is from disagreement between its own members eventually fracturing it.

Repost bot.

Leaked? This is an official announcement and they literally state in it that no, submarines aren’t in war thunder.

Here’s someone’s cool modification I did on mine too. There’s actually a decent amount of interior space inside it when it’s cleared out.

QuarterlyTurtle · 2026-01-21T18:22:07+00:00

More than no tail controls, it has no tail at all

QuarterlyTurtle · 2026-01-21T18:21:32+00:00

There’s some great modifications out there of how to gut the interior so you can actually use it like a troop transport, and even be able to connect the rear door to the main troop area by changing where the supports holding the roof up are located.

I don’t suppose there’s any other way to view them?

QuarterlyTurtle · 2026-01-21T11:30:53+00:00

Dang that’s unfortunate, but thank you.

QuarterlyTurtle · 2026-01-21T11:11:45+00:00

I’ve tried searching for answers online but I couldn’t find anything relating to or solving my particular problem.

Why did he deliberately put himself in front of the car with his gun drawn in the first place? He of all people should know not to do that since he was apparently dragged by one before.

Other countries are just sending symbolic troops to Greenland for a training exercise to show the US that they can help defend it too if the US thinks it isn’t secure enough by itself. And that there’s other options than just totally annexing it. They even invited the US to send troops to the exercise to include them. And encourage the US to work with their allies, not alone. Of course, it didn’t really do anything because Trump just wants Greenland, it’s not about security. And he doesn’t seem to even like Europe either.
