Hey Guys,
whenever i see american F-14s, F-15s or F-18s , why do they look so similer to SU-27, Su-30 etc?
why do i get a feeling that either one of these countries have copied the basic airframe characteritics of the other like air intakes, vertical stabilizers twin engine styles etc.
i think Russians Sukhois are based upon american aircraft airframe designs, and there could be a possibilty that USSR might have poured into this technology in 70s through KGB and it would have further been suplemented by an example or two volutarily given or in exchange of some weapon systems from USSR to Iran after Iranian revolution.
what do u guys think of this idea?
