Because ONLY IRAN has Tomcats.
Because ONLY IRAN has a desire to still try to acquire nuclear enrichment for weapons (Russia already has it)
And While Russia has the Felon, it's not beyond reasoning that in the near future that Iran may get some from Russia.
And Iran does have green woods and snow capped mountains. it isn't all desert.
It says they are Su-57s right in the film, great detective work there.

"And the long list goes on and on and on and on and onand on and onand on and on."
like your mental illness
GOP wants nothing of the sort, how about you stop with your false strawman bullshit
damn you are retarded. "Long live {insert whoever}" is not unique to Nazi Germany.
"The Queen is dead, Long Live the King"
We Conservative Hate the Nazis with a passion. We hate just as much the false accusations from the left of being Nazis even as the left keep acting like Nazis.
Hell AntiFa is practically the left's Sturmabteilung.
It's a common thing seen across multiple professions.
Law Enforcement hate most police dramas, but love Reno 911 and Supertroopers.
Nurses and Doctors hate most Hospital dramas, but loved Scrubs.
Navy hates The Last Ship and Last Resort, but love Down Periscope.
A Drama takes itself seriously, so when they get things wrong, especially when they get things blatantly wrong... It stands out as bad to those in the profession.
A Comedy doesn't take itself seriously and isn't expected to be realistic in every respect, the humor then often accentuates (in an overblown caricature of reality) the truth of things that are known to those who've lived the life.
some, mostly no.
Mostly he was spot on.
Taken in general, not specific to the situation of the film... just generally speaking regarding A Military Serviceman vs some bitching civilian whining about the military... He is exactly right.
<blockquote>"Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lieutenant Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom.
You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall -- you need me on that wall.
We use words like "honor," "code," "loyalty." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line.
I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it.
I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand the post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think you're entitled to!"</blockquote>
As far as what happened regards to Pvt Santiago... he was completely in the wrong.
Trolls gotta troll
Have you seen Kelly lately?
Times hasn't been kind to her in the Hollywood looks department.
She looks her age.
Tom Cruise would look like he's making out with his grandmother.
The real dead giveaway isn't the nuclear enrichment plant... But the fact that there is only one country in the world with flyable tomcats remaining.
Having personally known a number of TOPGUN grads to include a former TOPGUN XO....
Your opinion is not based on reality.
"The example you put, the USS Borie proves my point. When the U-boat surfaced for action it was already damaged by the destroyer's depth charges. Not so in the movie under consideration."
Wrong, exactly the same. You cannot know it only by the trailer but the sub in the film was forced to the surface by previous depth charges. This just goes to show your ignorance and arrogance on what you are discussing.
Also regarding the guns missing. The sub was in too close and the guns could not depress low enough to hit. They were intended as anti-aircraft mounts.
Fucking retard.
Who the fuck are you talking about?
The alteration to the title should have been your first clue there Quasimodo.
The story is Hansel and Gretel, not Gretel and Hansel.
You goin to start adding 'hana' to the end of every sentence again troll?
No it really doesn't unless you are one of those overly sensitive fear mongering chicken littles screaming ignorantly about catastrophic climate change.
There are no IMDb boards. They were shut down years ago.
Both yours and the OP's premise is false.
No one guilt trips you for not liking the film claiming it means you don't support the troops. We guilt trips you for talking shit about the troops.
Guess who one of the biggest haters of many military films are?
THE MILITARY!
No one claims we don't support the troops. We ARE the troops.
When a Military film is truly bad, you'll find no greater haters than among active duty and veterans.
So lay off the lame excuses for the grief you get for hating on a great film.
This film is not intended to be a hollywood blockbuster. It isn't and never tried to be. You and the OP are lambasting it because it is not.
It does do what it was intended to very well and thus it is a great film, and that is to honor the fallen in combat. Thus criticism of the film is taken as criticism of the military. Of the fallen.
The OPs comment is especially egregious because he suggests it would be better if Lt. Col Strobl (He couldn't be bothered to get his name right, calling him Strobe) had questioned the war. No the film would not have been better by injecting leftist bias. This film is not about the war, any war, nor any reasons or justifications for any war.
It is about those that fell in combat regardless of which war or the reasons for it.
You want a bad military movie? Look no further than films like the recent Midway remake by Roland Emmerich, or Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor. Or the Hurt Locker or Behind Enemy Lines.
All four of those films were horrific and roundly panned by nearly everyone in the military or who has ever served. But then, you and the OP probably loved them because of the fashy CGI eyecandy.
If that's the case, I would respectfully suggest that neither you nor the OP have the understanding or experience to know what makes a good military film or not.
My head's not in my ass.
You however still don't know WTF you're talking about and are just spewing crap.
