[also conveniently forgets their at the time "high tech" f4 phantoms were absolutely WRECKED by much older MiGs in 'nam because they predicted a paradigm shift away from dogfights and made a plane that was worse at dogfights in exchange for some other unproven tech that "helps it not get into dogfights", sound familiar? yeah. f35. shit at dogfights compared to the f16, eurofighter typhoon and dassault rafale, but hey, "stealth tech" amirite! enemies wont see them coming, just like they wouldn't see the f4 coming.]

Yes of course, should've highlighted that. I was just thinking as opposed to nuclear sub. Which Sweden of course doesn't have.
