Meanwhile Russian Air Force ...

 ... which as we all know loses 150 combat planes daily and never gained air superiority over 404, continues--magically, I guess--exercise this air superiority over the battlefield. But what do I really know about it. 


These are the guys from the "Singing Squadron", which harks back to a legendary Great Patriotic War squadron of Vasiliy Emelianinko (in Russian).

But it became immortal after the Leonid Bykov's cult Soviet classic which hits as hard today as when it came out in 1974--Only Old Men Are going to Battle. And the "Singing Squadron" still flies into battle today. And yes, times changed and pulsating Motley Crew's track (one of the best in Glam Metal) fits perfectly--it is a jet age after all.
