Ah yes, the Russian SR-71.

The Russian Moon landings.

The Russian Space Shuttle fleet and missions.

The Russian stealth bombers and fighters. (Must be really, really good, no one has ever seen one.)

Course we all know that the Russians exceeded the sound barrier way before George Welsh did in an F-86.

That the TU-144 flew before the Concorde has nothing to do with the US.

And the first supersonic Bomber was the Russian B-58 Hustler.

Dang clever them Russians.
