I have done countless search's to try and find out how many planes the likes of Russia, America & China have. Also detailed one to find out how many of each typer of plane they have.

If anyone has some reliable links they could post, could they do so.

Thats a really good site thatnks !

But does anyone have .... I dont really know how to put it ... but I'll give and example.

America Russia
F-22 - 200 planes Su-37 - 200
F-18 - 300 planes MiG-29 - 450

So .. you know what i mean ... does anyone have any links to a site that shows this type of information

Thanks alot thats exactly what I was looking for

Looks Like Russia is still more than a match for the USAF.

Hmm, but I don't know how many of their planes are really ready for combat.
But I found another interesting fact: they had only 90 Su-27 at the end of cold war. I thought they were much more powerfull, in case of conventional conflict their 90 Su-27,540 Mig-29,and 200 Mig-31 would have hard time beating +/- 400 F-15 and 2000 F-16. Not to mention naval F-14,f-18, AWACS advantage and the NATO allies (especially France with their Mirage 2000)

Do you have any stats on the USAF, so we can compare ??

it's a very secetive thing cause I can't find it anywhere

i only know the USAF has 3,000 + aircraft in total plus a few hundred navy/marine aircraft and few hundred more in the air national guard.

I like the Mig-23, it has stylish variable sweep wings and with updated sensors and latest tech missiles it can be a decent fighter/attack aircraft. When i play as any of the eastern european countries in the computer game "superpower" i always build large squadrons of them and they have served me well. If nothing more it looks good

The nose and wings looks good, but the tail is really ugly.

russia might have 6784 planes, but they say that only 1 in 3 are actually active and serviceable regrettably, so that comes out to=approximately 2261 aircraft

Thats site excellent, one of the best i've seen, you should join the forums on it Dima !
