At this point there is no support for the idea that US weapons have superior precision. The Russian campaign is showing the opposite.
- ethbr0 4y agoO_o A) NATO's air campaign in the Kosovo War (1999) certainly scared the shit out of Russia. B) That Russia is currently bombarding Ukrainian cities with repurposed surface to air missiles doesn't inspire a lot of confidence in their ability to produce sufficient quantities of precision missiles for even a moderate scale conflict. C) The majority of Ukrainian platforms at this point still aren't Western, and thus incapable of firing NATO precision ordinance.
