Peguei num forum: www.flanker2.com Two real life stories: A. 1992. Langley Air Force Base. The first time Russian military aircraft flew over US. Su-27UB had a training mission with F-15D. They took turns starting on each other's tail. 1. The trainer (UB) Flanker kept on the tail of the F-15 all the way. 2. F-15D behind SU-27: The flanker lost the eagle, got on its tail and "killed" it. Well, it was a wrong Eagle - a F-15C escort plane. After being informed of this, the Flanker got on the F-15D's tail and (undiscovered) kept there to the end. 3. After back-up pilots took their turns the story repeated itself. B. 1998-1999. Ethiopia has 8 (?) Su-27 piloted by Russian pilots (who says Delta Force is fiction?!). Eritrea has Mig-29s piloted by Russians and Ukranians. Once 2 planes from each side met along the border, the Flankers decided to return to base, The Migs then launched missiles, which the Flankers successfuly dodged, turned back and downed both Migs. This story has not been oficially confirmed or denied as far as I know. ============================================== Lista naval Para sair desta lista mande mensagem para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] sem nada no Subject e com o comando a seguir no corpo da msg: "unsubscribe naval" (sem aspas) ==============================================
