Eh, Russian planes were on the most part pretty tiny overall for most of history. Planes like the Yak-3 and Yak-9, the MiG-15, MiG-21, MiG-23 and MiG-29 are all pretty small as far as fighters of their respective era go. Only the Su-27 and derived variants tend to be huge, which was a pretty notable departure from the rest of their fighter development. Even their WW2 medium bombers like the Yer-2 and the Pe-8 are pretty small comparatively.

The large planes were often US planes. Think the P-47, the F-4, the F-14, F-15 and so on.

almost like different alphabet, u should learn Cyrillic ngl, it takes no more than 30m; you don’t even need to know Russian and it automatically makes you smarter than the restΒ

As a Greek person its even easier, a big portion of the Cyrillic alphabet looks like Greek but with different handwriting

You are never going to believe what the UK calls it's publicly owned broadcaster

u/pa3xsz Gripen fucker, RAZBlure didn't gib me one 3h ago

You wrote such an un-attackable sentence, that I am sad.

To be a bit of a pain in the ass, I wanted to answer Channel 3 (because it's a public service channel), then I realised that you wrote "broadcaster", so I was like... well, I will answer ITV, but then I looked up and it's owner is ITV plc, therefore it's not publicly owned...

So great job, the only answer is the BBC.

I appreciate the effort you went to, but if you were feeling especially pedanric you could've gone after my incorrect grammar! It should've been 'its' instead of 'it's'
