Just read a short article in this week’s Flight International – where it reports that, according to US Pilots, the F-15C ‘fared badly’ in the recent exercise flying against Indian AF Su-30MKI’s.
OK, not exactly ‘trounced’ – but fared badly !!
I didn’t buy the mag – just browsed in the newsagents – if anyone has a copy, can they scan and post here ??
No doubt it will be down to Rules-Of-Engagement – or a political ploy to get funding for the F/A-22 – but if genuine, it speaks highly of the IAF and the big Sukhoi.
Opps – sorry, musn’t praise Russian aircraft !!!!
