WRONG!!! USSR had all their own equipment, just not a lot of it to begin with, but by the end of the war, their arms production had far exceeded that of the USSR.
Seriously, go look up -
- T-26 and T-38 light tanks, T-24, T-28, T-34, and T-44 MBTs - Illyushin fighter planes of WWII - oh yeah, let's not forget the infamous Nagant rifles they used to get some of the highest sniper rates in WWII - far better riflemen than US troops for the simple fact that to defeat the germans, one rifle had to kill more than 30 enemy troops - and they came very close to that rate.

Your ignorance and blindness depress me and clearly you know nothing about economics. Let me guess: Romney voter?
The whole world is tied together now since globalization. Globalization is exactly what the multinational corporations you are leaping to the defense of wanted! The very people right wingers ferociously defend are the same people that took their jobs and sent the US economy into a toilet. And the wingnuts do it because they hate intellectuals and "hippies," and they're more than willing to take marching orders from a television.
Newsflash: Who do you think invented computers? Who do you think invented computer science? Who do you think programmed this game? HINT: It wasn't belligerent American rednecks and rabid anti-liberal nationalists.
It isn't the 19th century anymore. You think we can survive without them? They go down, we go down. You want to see a country that's going to survive into the 22nd century? Germany. You want to see one that isn't unless we change our direction? Us.

USSR did reverse engineer a lot of things during the war, after all it was from supplying them better equipment and technology that they were able to make good things.
Not that I am discrediting their feats, to say that USSR did it all by themselves with no outside help is simply not true. |

They were able to do it because they completely nationalized their education and science structure. Anybody smart enough to hack it got a spot and their ideas were followed. Unlimited funding for engineering. The AK-47 is a permanent, enduring testament to Russian engineering. No one can deny that. A gun you can drop, drown, let rust, and fill up with sand and it still shoots straight, year after year after year.
A Russian college professor invented NMR as part of his quantum mechanics class during the cold war - NMR is the predecessor of MRI, and it's used everywhere in science today. He never got a Nobel Prize. |

The USSR had the most advanced tanks on the planet during WW2. 100% Russian engineering.
FYI, German scientists copied the Soviet tanks, and still the Tigers and Panzers were outperformed. TEST Alliance BEST Alliance |

From what I've found it was a Galician-born American Physicist Isidor Rabi:
"Nuclear magnetic resonance was first described and measured in molecular beams by Isidor Rabi in 1938,[1] and in 1944, Rabi was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics for this work.[2] In 1946, Felix Bloch and Edward Mills Purcell expanded the technique for use on liquids and solids, for which they shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1952."
The AK-47 heavily based upon the STG.44 which was the world's first assault rifle. You only need to look at the designs to see the striking similarities. the difference was that the AK-47 used a shorter version (7.62 x 39mm) of the 7.62 x 54 R round, while the STG.44 was a shorter version of the 8mm mauser hence the name "Kurtz". (7.92 x 33 mm) The bolt was based on the M1 Garand assault rifle. It is by no means the best rifle, it was simply cheap, easy to produce, and had good reliability. Otherwise, there is nothing truly unique about it.
Kalashnikov copied the STG44, he will deny that it is so, but you only need to look at the rifles to see he is not telling the truth. |

Anyway, back to the original topic:
Gallente are very obviously French. Their culture is hardly American, the US does not focus on individual freedom, it focuses on corporate freedom.
Caldari are closest in game to the US. Militaristic and focused on corporations above citizens.
Amarr and Minmatar have no real-world equivalents. They are a more fantasy based "religious zealots versus freedom fighters" trope. TEST Alliance BEST Alliance |

American shermans were fairly poor.
The T-34 is probably not as awesome as you think:
" It can be argued that the T-34 was a GÇÿwar winningGÇÖ tank on a strategic level, but this should not detract from the fact that at a tactical level its performance during four years of continuous war was relatively poor"
"The Soviets achieved strategic success, but paid an exceptionally high price; approximately 44,900 of the T-34s were lost out of a total of 96,500 fully tracked AFVs lost compared with only 32,800 for the Germans (this includes all SP guns, SP artillery, and several thousand vehicles captured when Germany surrendered on the East Front) during all of WW2; a global loss ratio of 2.94 to 1 in favour of the Germans." |

That, my friend, is why it is the best rifle on the planet.
Anyone can buy one. Anyone can maintain one. Anyone can kill you with one.
A rifle that is bullseye accurate at 500 yards but will misfire with dirt in the barrel is inferior to a dirt cheap rifle that can put 3 bullets downrange and hit you at 500 yards while submerged in mud, during a hot humid monsoon storm. The AK-47 is simply the perennial assault rifle.
Remember - the best engineer does not aim for perfect performance in perfect conditions regardless of cost. He aims for the simplest solution that costs the least and works in *all* possible situations. Why? Because that's all that matters in the real world, and complex engineering always breaks when you need it most.
I know several Vietnam veterans who all told me the exact same story - any man who found an AK in the field turned his M16 into an "on-base show peice" and kept his AK hidden away, relying entirely on it in the field. It was simply superior in every single way that mattered. TEST Alliance BEST Alliance |

All this is true, but how many weapons can you count that were directly influenced by the AK-47? I'll give you somewhere to start - and we all know that Israel has some of the best weapons tech in the world, but what weapon primarily influenced the Galil assault rifle?
And, FYI, for a rifle that's virtually outsold every other modern rifle on the face of the planet, the AK-47 doesn't have to be the best in the world to be an effective weapon of war. As it is, at medium range, it IS one of the most accurate weapons in the world in short bursts. And the things will last forever. I am 12 and what is this?? |

I'm talking about Yevgeny Zavoisky. Rabi took the credit because the Zavoisky's lab didn't have the equipment to do the shimming of the field correctly. Zavoisky went back later and developed EPR and I think got some credit for that, although EPR is a much less useful technique. I was wrong about the cold war part though...I guess they did all this in the 30's and 40's. You learn something new every day.

Um, I'll take your word for it. I've never heard this. People don't use the STG anymore though, do they?
