I don't know. I did correct some of the spelling, but I also left some inaccuracy for flavor. I found it at Soviet-Empire.com Archive :: View topic - USAF vs VVSSS - comparing military technology

I was searching for information on the LPL (Letayushaya Podvodnaya Lodka - Flying Submarine Vessel) when I came across this drivel.

And do not allow me to start on how superior our submarines are. Our advanced Soviet Technology elminates need for decadent capitalist light bulbs- ships naturally have healthful green glow.

ANOTHER TRIUMPH OF IRREPRESSIBLE SOVIET TECHNOLOGY!

Re: USAF vs. VVSSS (Military Air Forces of Soviet Union

Bob Hoover said it best when the U.S. and Russia had a fly off in Moscow one year. It was a military air show of some sort, and he was flying the F-86. Russia was flying the Mig 15. The F-86 cleaned the clock of the Mig time and time again. Now these were the only two airplanes in the contest. The headlines of the paper in Moscow read,"Mig places second in contest while U.S. fighter finishes next to last."

I love it! I'll have to insert that one into my repertoire.

Admin,
What is the "flying submarine vessel" you are researching?
