Yes, they should have held on to their Migs. That would be intelligent and interesting to you.

Depends on the type of MIG.

The Mig-29 Fulcrum is more capable then every fighter in our public service inventory at medium to close ranges. The F-22 is not really in active service yet and would be a better aircraft then the MIG-29 even without its low visibility capablities.

The SU-35 is probably one of the most capable non-stealth aircraft in existance today.

As far as I know it is the only fighter in the world capable of doing a double Immelman from take off. The F-22 might be able to do one, I think it has the power at least, but I have never seen one do it. I have seen a SU-35 do one at the Paris air show a few years ago.

Sure they probably had older less capable MIGs but just because a particular weapon system is made outside the US does not mean it is inferior. We bought the Harrier from the Brits for years and also bought the Canbera medium bomber back in the early 60's.

Perhaps Syria can go against Israel again and we can get a true test. I'll bet on Israel.

Most of the Arab planes were destroyed on the ground before they even had a chance to fight.

That was just poor intel and support not poor fighters.
