Basically, I am finding this whole discussion to be rather irrelevant.
There is a lost of conflicting information about Mig and F series
planes. But it doens't really matter, ESPECIALLY IN THE REAL WORLD!!
Have we all forgotten that the "Evil Empire" has fallen? The chances
that our best fighter planes and pilots will go up against Russia's best
fighter planes and pilots is slim and none, and Slim just left town. In
this post-cold war era, it simply will not happen.

PS: Yes, my thinking does include minor powers such as Syria, Iraq, Iran,
and the members of the Commonwealth of Former Soviet States.
