Despite biggest amount of the US bases in Europe and Asia, a group of Saudi fanatics seized US civil airplanes and rammed WTC and Pentagon HQ(!!!). Despite biggest amount of the US bases around the Globe, mexican illegal immigrants freely pass south borderline of the USA. Biggest amount of the US bases still can not prevent iraqi insurgents to kill American military personnel.

I'm not sure how you meant it. But I don't throw up a smile emote if I'm talking about Chernobyl or Beslan school.

But that does show part of the reason why we're so involved in the world. Despite SS here's conviction that democracy will "always win" things like democracy and freedom are actually rather vulnerable.

For example if China had a problem with some type of foreign terrorist they could nearly prevent reports of what happened (or not depending on what they want), and they could clamp down on a religion/race as much as they wanted. And while Americans are getting shot trying to create democracy in Iraq Stalin would probably have the region clamped down by now under a puppet dictator. There just might be a million or so less Iraqis by this point.

Thats impossible...if stealth doesnt work, why would they make anti-stealth technology?

But if you have any actual evidence of this anti-stealth technology, feel free to post it. I'll be sure to hold my breath, heh heh

So far all we have seen is a mock up...which could be anything. Maybe they are trying to perfect their own stealth (by copying us...which would be typical for the Russians).

New S-400 Triumf air defense missile systems will be put on combat duty around Moscow in late August, a senior air defense commander said Thursday.

"We are expecting to receive S-400 systems in July-August, and put them on combat duty to protect the airspace around the capital at the end of August," said Colonel-General Yury Solovyov, commander of the Air Defense Forces Special Command (former Moscow Military District Air Defense Command).

The S-400 Triumf (NATO codename SA-21 Growler) is a new air defense missile system developed by the Almaz Central Design Bureau as an upgrade of the S-300 family.

It has been designed to intercept and destroy airborne targets at a distance of up to 400 kilometers (250 miles), or twice the range of the MIM-104 Patriot, and 2.5 times that of the S-300PMU-2.

The general said that the system could be also used for limited purposes in missile and space defense, but that it is not intended to destroy intercontinental ballistic missiles.

However, he said the system is highly capable of destroying stealth aircraft, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles with an effective range of up to 3,500 kilometers (2,200 miles) and a speed of up to 4.8 kilometers (3 miles) per second.

The Russian Air Defense Forces currently deploy more than 30 regiments equipped with S-300 missile complexes, which will be gradually replaced with S-400 systems.

So far all that shows is what they are claiming. The only actual evidence of it's capabilities was the intercept of a ballistic missile.

You can always send dome stealth planes to Russian airspace and check out whether S-400 works or not
