News / Modern F-35 bought by Poland. Good decision? [288]

Poles (according to earlier posts to this thread) already very busy looking for nukes to load on their new wunderwaffe, and deciding what is first - duty or pleasure (you should know that joke). ;) Nobody take care to calculate total cost of ownership yet.

I can only wish good luck to polish pilots, who have to fly on that super high-tech coffins and must believe that they are invisible mans. ;)

... unless this F-35 will not be used just like Javelins is used by Ukraine - storage in a well guarded warehouse only, without any usage in the field allowed. ;)

Drones are much cheaper and more practical.

Yes, if used against some third world country. Use of "global coverage" drones against country that already have means to destroy or damage comm/control satellites will be problematic.

This does not make F-35 purchase by Poland more reasonable, though. ;)

Memo to Poland: cancel that order

Impossible. Because this is not the regular order, but the way to pay pizzo to US.

Polish politicians probably forgot, that pizzo is sized to be affordable, but has to be paid regularily, it is not one time payment. ;) Next time it will be huge lot of spare parts for that F-35 (absolutely neccessary to protect Poland from Russia, and overpriced just like jets itself). Then hundred of new updated helmets, custom made for each pilot. And again... And once more... And...

There is good thing for Russian developers that F-35 will be regularily available in the air nearby, to test advanced realtime "destealthing" software updates for S-400. ;)

Maybe if Poland gets too annoying, it might get a new smolensk moment? Who knows

Smolensk moment was due to internal stupidity, not due to outside annoyance.

But stupidity can be very annoying as well, and cause much more problems that sudden career growth for a large number of politicians....

Poland ... poising a mortal threat to Russia.

Who said you that BS? Poland by itself does not pose any threat, because even while completely brainwashed, Poles still care about yourself, their children, and the land they plan to continue to live in future (just like Russians). Threat is NATO bases that is de-facto controlled from large distance by someone who does not care at all about both polish people and the land.

Let's name things by their own names. Trump said that it's time to "fari vagnari u pizzu", if you sell russophobia to the world, you have to pay their share to the masters who made this item sellable to a third parties and who offer their advertising support. United States have problems, and funding of Poland from EU is also coming to the end, so now it is time to pay something to "big boys", supporting their economy and taking away some of monetary losses, linked to F-35 program. Later it will be harder to find money to pay.

We all know the reality - some clunky 80s Sukhoi

Then why Polish politicians need such large loads of fresh diapers once they hear the word "Russia"?

Russophrenia - "a condition where the sufferer believes Russia is both about to collapse, and take over the world."

(including taking the huge damage that stealth Raptors are able to cause

... in your wet dreams and in a manufacturer advertising booklets. Maybe F-35 is little bit "stealth" to 1960's style soviet X-band radars that is used by African countries, but you have to be very lucky to sneak into russian airspace hoping to be invisible to all overlapping systems of different bands.

Can you tell me, why there was panic once Turkey tried to have S-400 and F-35 in the same hands?

News / Nuclear Power in Poland? Yes, please! Absolutely nobody disagrees! [73]

To what degree ?

Depends of reactor type. In any case, a lot of uranium still there, but cannot be used further safely after some point, set by reactor designers.

"Most" is the key word here

Most active - short lived ones who give huge activity and strong heating first months after unloading. It is why such rods stored in a pools with water near reactor for cooling. After short lived nuclides decay and heating decrease to a level that can be managed by transport containers, rods can be transported to a long storage near reprocessing factory, for years. After activity is decreased further due to decay, rods will be disassembled and remaining uranium and some other valuable elements (including some transmutated ones) extracted. The rest will be treated as active waste, dried and fused into glass blocks to be buried for millennias.

If memory serves me correctly, if you buy your rods from Russia, you have an option to get a "full lifecycle" contract. You receive fresh fuel, and rods is taken back after they depleted and sit for necessary period in a station fuel cooling pools to let most active nuclides decay so rods can be transported.

Work / Business ideas for Poland [63]

invent a mouse flavored cat food.

Invent a cat-proof container as well, otherwise you will be unable to transport your product to retail stores. ;)

Off-Topic / Social Media - who uses Facebook or similar? [45]

Facebook is a private company. Using Facebook is optional.

FRS is private "company" as well. Can I avoid use of their "products"?

because hes a Democrat.

Democracy is a power of specially trained Democrats (from a good families, as well). ;)

History / Why Poles love Russia [105]

Look at families of CheKa/NKVD/MGB upper officials, and answer will come by itself. ;)

BTW: Feliks Dzierżyński who was responsible for initial Cheka/GPU activity was Polish .

News / Polish diplomat Zbigniew Brzezinski has died [53]

Zbigniew was also pretty caring about their milk cow. Time to time he directed her to where she could plun... oops, graze. But cow was experienced in this stuff and without Zbigniew, so he make just very slight correction to their own way.

News / Should Poland made an energy bridge deal with Russia? [122]

Put a pipe through other E.U. Baltic states?

No, thank you. Governments of that "paper tigers" compete who is barking to Russia louder, looking to a master on other side of Atlantic, so there is THREE potential sources of conflict, while current NS route have ZERO.

News / Do we finally see that Russia doing something positive for Poland, by successfully resisting to EU ? [57]

A sick experiment with some of the highest living standards in the world - certainly much higher than in Russia

Now compare national debt of Russia and national debts of parts of "sick experiment". If Russia will get somewhere and spend 26,556€ per person (current stare of finnish debt) on a infrastructure and public utilities, it will be quite a nice place to live. Especially central and northeastern regions, that is already not so bad...

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [945]

Know anyone who has actually fought there?

Yes. Many. Yes.

My gf is born and grown in Torez, so while I'm in Russia, I often used (and abused) to put together that endless "humanitarian aid" boxes for friends and relatives that currently live in Donetsk and Torez. And someone come from there time to time, so I can ask live people about what is really happening.

So, while you are trying to make lives of people in Donbass as worse as you can, we counteract. And God will sort it out later, who was right. God is not a stupid, and not prone to be fooled by propaganda. Also, your wishes to other people will be taken into account.

but his participation would have exposed

If my grandmother would have penis, she would be my grandfather. ;)

Electoral base of Navalny and Sobchak is really the same people. If Navalny would participate - he would split current support of Sobchak in half, and maybe cut another percent or two total from other "minors". But Navalny will not participate in a foreseeable future - due to a well known legal reason.
