F-86's were sometimes painted with F-80 markings so that MIGS would come down and engage.
Mig-17's rewl
I doubt the accounts of both sides as far as K:L ratios, but I do believe the US did have a distinct advantage over the MIGs in the conflict. Why? All US pilots were throughfully trained, most MIG pilots were not. That there was a crack soviet squad or a highly skilled US squadron out there chalking up kills is possible, but the fact still remains that MIGs were not always piloted by average-skilled pilots, when the US in comparison, had highly trained pilots in all their planes.
"Are you trying to say the US never landed on the moon"
It doesnt matter if they did or did not. The USSR was the first in space. I am glad a dog was first in space too (LAIKA).
Why doesnt it matter if they did go to the moon or not? With current tech we can anyway, so to heck with conspiracies and stuff

Matter of fact, im quite surprised we dont have a habitat on the moon now (heck maybe there is but we aint being told. wee!)
Maybe the IJN beat us to it and those $#@$# n1k's have been up there making rice cakes and dancing with the rabbits
