Why Serhebia is buying all these planes to fight its neighbors such as Kosova,Montenegro,Croatia, Maqedonia, Bosnja, Sllovenia or against NATO . History repeat itself, Ballkan people fight each other and then outside forces come to our region and take over. Those planes can be taken easy by missle system. Remember Kosova has Bondsil Base Meaning USA the most poerfull army in the planet. Albania , Montenegro, Croatia and soon Maqedonia will join NATO, serbia is surrender by NATO.Peace is better more prosperous make trade no war.

How funny reading the anti-Serb comments, attempting to downplay the significance here. Firstly, we dealt with NATO in 1999 and they went crying to Russia for a deal so we got UNSCR1244, which confirmed Serbia's sovereignty. Secondly, we shot down a stealth bomber with a missile system far more primitive than the S300. The NATO cowards then could only bomb civilian infrastructure and civilians from 10000m high.

Just what is Serbia's strategy either you be on the Path of NATO or you become a Russian sister state and that means a big shift in what you say and do not to mention being prepared to be confronted by the US can Serbia really do that on its own no flipping way.

How do any of you know this equipment is neglected and rusty? Belarus has negotiated new mig 35 jets and the purchase of some older su27 jets. Russia has intetest in providing belrus with modern air defenses because it is basically going to an extension of russias air defense. Belarus no longer needs these jets, and honestly probably has less of a need for jets than serbia. They are allied with russia and very close to russia, they will be protected. There is no air force in the world that will tell you s300 is dated junk that they do not fear, absolutely 0, it has a nearly 90% kill rate once locked onto an aircraft. The modernization allows for integration with buk and kub systems, which serbia has. Same goes for modernized mig 29s. Zhuk radars and hotas make it a plane to be taken seriously. These are all gen4+ weapons. The only two countries playing with gen 5 weapons are usa and russia, so serbia is getting with the times, and is WAY ahwad than they were just last year.

So then that means F117 stealth attack plane was downed with 60's soviet "rusted" technology. That's pretty embarrassing then. After this, american contractors were furious because they lost lots of future orders, no one wanted to buy these "high tech" planes.

Don't be so sure. btw, Russia is in great economic distress. One reason is the price of oil is too low for Russia to make a profit. Belarus selling aged and rusty military weapons to Serbia that Russia gave to Belarus is not very brotherly.

Where did you get information that Russia is in economic distress? out of a packet of Cornflakes? If the price for oil is too low to make a profit then Exxon is about to go belly up? Because guess what Exxon does for a living?

Well did you know that the mighty US air force has to cannibalise other aircraft just to keep some of their fighter jets in the air due to a lack of spare parts? No? The F18 is a 1978 design and it was supposed to be replaced by the F35, that is if it can ever take off the ground.

@ Watcher,

Sorry to inform you but I am not Albanian or from the region.

I did however spend lots of time in Bosnia, Croatia and just a little time in Serbia in the early 1990's for work. I did have the opportunity to learn a little bit of the language and culture I just like to stay in touch with what is happening in the region and to see if any of the attitudes have changed. Unfortunately your post answers my question.

Do you know amything at all when it comes to this subject? How old do you think the average f16 is? Are unaware the the usa and allies modernize 30 year old jets all the time? Do you know what modernizing a war plane is? Second, what missles do not use corrosive fuel? Fuelis corrosive by nature. None of the other countries in the balkans have air defenses that are as potent as what serbia currently has, let alone a s300 system. None of the other balkan countries have anything newer than a mig 21 and most do not even have that. None of the other countries in the balkans have a world class arms manufacturing facility like zastava. Id say Serbia is doing all they can amd doing well with modernization of their military considering they are a country of 7 million people. Lets not forget the best weapon they can have, backing of vladimir putin. As far as belarus wanting to get rid of this equipment, you are right, they do. They are in the process of being modernized by the russians as it is in russias interest for belarus to have a adequate military. I know you hate serbia bit you spew total b.s. on this site instead of using your brain.

If its old equipment why are you so worried? But on the issue of NATO yes that is true 20 planes are not enough, Serbia never plans to deal with NATO because we will leave that to the Russians who at present strength can walk over NATO in less than 48 hours in the Baltics and about a week to disable the rest.

We need them to deal with Albanians, Croats and Bosniaks.

If living standards are getting worse in Serbia then I’d hate to live in Kosova or Croatia because no one has even opened a can of soda there let alone any industry.

What do you think poor broke Belarus that Serbs are the Balkan fools. That you haven't maintained that junk for decades. Just the S-300's are about to burst with the very old corrosive propellants in them. You are trying to get rid of them or you will have a ecological disaster or worse. The pilots that have to fly the old MiG's will be shitting their bridges scared to death. Hoping they can just take off and land never mind anything else. Theirs enough Srb pilots given there life's flying the stolen Yugo old depleted junk they don't need more. Unless you can strap Vucic, Dacic and Vulin the test drive dummy's. Fly them remotely around then the Serb pilots would be fore the excellent deal.

After the S300 and Mig29s they will start to buy medicine for the hospitals and fix the schools.
That is only after they spend the money to upgrade them. The dialysis machines and MRI’s can wait to be upgraded.

It was evident from the very beggining. Belarus is an important component of the Russian defence and we cannot afford there S-300 and Mig-29 with the ssme transponders. Meanwhile level of military threats in Serbia is much lower. None of your neighbors hve such arms today.

How do any of you know this equipment is neglected and rusty? Belarus has negotiated new mig 35 jets and the purchase of some older su27 jets. Russia has intetest in providing belrus with modern air defenses because it is basically going to an extension of russias air defense. Belarus no longer needs these jets, and honestly probably has less of a need for jets than serbia. They are allied with russia and very close to russia, they will be protected. There is no air force in the world that will tell you s300 is dated junk that they do not fear, absolutely 0, it has a nearly 90% kill rate once locked onto an aircraft. The modernization allows for integration with buk and kub systems, which serbia has. Same goes for modernized mig 29s. Zhuk radars and hotas make it a plane to be taken seriously. These are all gen4+ weapons. The only two countries playing with gen 5 weapons are usa and russia, so serbia is getting with the times, and is WAY ahwad than they were just last year.

What do you think poor broke Belarus that Serbs are the Balkan fools. That you haven't maintained that junk for decades. Just the S-300's are about to burst with the very old corrosive propellants in them. You are trying to get rid of them or you will have a ecological disaster or worse. The pilots that have to fly the old MiG's will be shitting their bridges scared to death. Hoping they can just take off and land never mind anything else. Theirs enough Srb pilots given there life's flying the stolen Yugo old depleted junk they don't need more. Unless you can strap Vucic, Dacic and Vulin the test drive dummy's. Fly them remotely around then the Serb pilots would be fore the excellent deal.

Yes SJ and in Serbia they dont get to be either king or lord but prime ministers? Lol. And yes Serbia could spend all their invested on some old planes. Who will they attack? And the lie about its only for protection. From who are they protecting you? Nato, if Nato wanted to attack you some 20 mig cant help you much :) but thats what works for the serbs to keep them from complaining about their living standards and rights getting worse fair enough.

After the S300 and Mig29s they will start to buy medicine for the hospitals and fix the schools.
That is only after they spend the money to upgrade them. The dialysis machines and MRI’s can wait to be upgraded.

Do you know amything at all when it comes to this subject? How old do you think the average f16 is? Are unaware the the usa and allies modernize 30 year old jets all the time? Do you know what modernizing a war plane is? Second, what missles do not use corrosive fuel? Fuelis corrosive by nature. None of the other countries in the balkans have air defenses that are as potent as what serbia currently has, let alone a s300 system. None of the other balkan countries have anything newer than a mig 21 and most do not even have that. None of the other countries in the balkans have a world class arms manufacturing facility like zastava. Id say Serbia is doing all they can amd doing well with modernization of their military considering they are a country of 7 million people. Lets not forget the best weapon they can have, backing of vladimir putin. As far as belarus wanting to get rid of this equipment, you are right, they do. They are in the process of being modernized by the russians as it is in russias interest for belarus to have a adequate military. I know you hate serbia bit you spew total b.s. on this site instead of using your brain.

Don't be so sure. btw, Russia is in great economic distress. One reason is the price of oil is too low for Russia to make a profit. Belarus selling aged and rusty military weapons to Serbia that Russia gave to Belarus is not very brotherly.

Where did you get information that Russia is in economic distress? out of a packet of Cornflakes? If the price for oil is too low to make a profit then Exxon is about to go belly up? Because guess what Exxon does for a living?

Well did you know that the mighty US air force has to cannibalise other aircraft just to keep some of their fighter jets in the air due to a lack of spare parts? No? The F18 is a 1978 design and it was supposed to be replaced by the F35, that is if it can ever take off the ground.

Why do you think the US abandoned Syria? Stick to playing tick tack toe.

Stinks like St. Petersburg troll farm here. Oooweee ... 90% of “serbs” leaving coments here smell like Russian anti US-ally agtiprop. Poor Serbs that cannot and don’t want to shake this cancer off their backs. Focused anti-albaniansms for everything. Too bad, your economy is going down the tubes, dear Ruskies, and you still trade in those US dolla dolla billz y’all

"rusted"

So then that means F117 stealth attack plane was downed with 60's soviet "rusted" technology. That's pretty embarrassing then. After this, american contractors were furious because they lost lots of future orders, no one wanted to buy these "high tech" planes.

How do any of you know this equipment is neglected and rusty? Belarus has negotiated new mig 35 jets and the purchase of some older su27 jets. Russia has intetest in providing belrus with modern air defenses because it is basically going to an extension of russias air defense. Belarus no longer needs these jets, and honestly probably has less of a need for jets than serbia. They are allied with russia and very close to russia, they will be protected. There is no air force in the world that will tell you s300 is dated junk that they do not fear, absolutely 0, it has a nearly 90% kill rate once locked onto an aircraft. The modernization allows for integration with buk and kub systems, which serbia has. Same goes for modernized mig 29s. Zhuk radars and hotas make it a plane to be taken seriously. These are all gen4+ weapons. The only two countries playing with gen 5 weapons are usa and russia, so serbia is getting with the times, and is WAY ahwad than they were just last year.

Why Serhebia is buying all these planes to fight its neighbors such as Kosova,Montenegro,Croatia, Maqedonia, Bosnja, Sllovenia or against NATO . History repeat itself, Ballkan people fight each other and then outside forces come to our region and take over. Those planes can be taken easy by missle system. Remember Kosova has Bondsil Base Meaning USA the most poerfull army in the planet. Albania , Montenegro, Croatia and soon Maqedonia will join NATO, serbia is surrender by NATO.Peace is better more prosperous make trade no war.

Serbs have already started to fix and renovate their hospitals and schools.
Ask your Albanian relatives that pay to use them. Besides, 1 private American hospital In Tirana, that all the Albanians and Macedonians have at their services , otherwise welcome to Serbian hospitals. Again,ask your relatives that Serb doctors save their life that live in the Balkans.

Like I said in my other post I am not Albanian or from the region.

I just like to observe what is happening and correct errors in comments which are clouded by blind nationalism or are posted by Russian trolls who have their own assignments to complete.

How funny reading the anti-Serb comments, attempting to downplay the significance here. Firstly, we dealt with NATO in 1999 and they went crying to Russia for a deal so we got UNSCR1244, which confirmed Serbia's sovereignty. Secondly, we shot down a stealth bomber with a missile system far more primitive than the S300. The NATO cowards then could only bomb civilian infrastructure and civilians from 10000m high.

@ marki - Is this why you Albs come to Srbija for health care? Your own can't take care of you?
Regardless, when a man cannot debate back about something intelligently or is cornered, his first line of defense is to attack the "others" interest!
Markie - stick to your problems in your stillborn "kosova"...Srbija is doing just fine...always have, always will! Why?? read Serbs - Gaurdians of the Gate...only then will you understand who we are and why we will never "recognize" your abortion project called "kosova".... Sorry, facts are facts!

@ Watcher,

Sorry to inform you but I am not Albanian or from the region.

I did however spend lots of time in Bosnia, Croatia and just a little time in Serbia in the early 1990's for work. I did have the opportunity to learn a little bit of the language and culture I just like to stay in touch with what is happening in the region and to see if any of the attitudes have changed. Unfortunately your post answers my question.

Just what is Serbia's strategy either you be on the Path of NATO or you become a Russian sister state and that means a big shift in what you say and do not to mention being prepared to be confronted by the US can Serbia really do that on its own no flipping way.
