Are you saying the Ruskies will take it?

Would inspire yanks to take it if they showed some interest.

The Russians already make them, small ones are for fun for rich people.

862767 2010-03-01 20:08:00 The Soviets have everything, they don't need to steal anything (except superbowl rings). And everything has an integrated autocannon that will cut down armor.

They are the one team I don't wanna mess with.

The commies are gone burger from government.

862769 2010-03-01 20:15:00 After a bit of experience and a few headlines with the German ground effect things in USA, the lawyers would have any new arrivals high on their opportunities list.
Consider what happens when trying to turn at high speed; the things go sideways quite a bit; any engine failure then causes spectacular carnage since manoeuvring and stopping in a hurry are simply not in the beast's repertoire.
This doesn't mean they are not fun, but when two or more are gathered, problems seem to arrive regularly.
