Did I understand this correctly? Israel provoked Syrian AF by buzzing Latakia and then happily engaged and destroyed two Mig29s. Something seems way off here…

If this is true and Syria acquires S-300PMU2, no more buzzing passes for F16, or in fact anything else that fly in 200km range, including airlines.

Well, way I see it nowadays : Israeli is aggressor with better hardware and US blessing. They pretty much do anything they want and if things get ugly they draw WW2 holocaust card and  wave it to everyone...

In my book they are doing the same on those *******s over the area..

About time someone would give back with SIMILAR and "fair(..???!!!)"  methods  , meaning splashing F16 or two with AA missiles.. not bombing innocents!


edit:hmmm rag and head censored when connected...

its not the plane, its the pilot and the training, discipline and aggresiveness of said pilot that will defeat the opponent.

The latest and greatest hardware is worthless if the guy flying it is a dork.

The lack of historical understanding and the complete lack of any realization of the situation Israel is faced with day to day in this response is purely astonishing.  Or is it...

Sounds like they have something in common with the average La7 pilot in the MA

F-16 superior to Mig-29s?  Yeah right!  Without a helmet mounted sight, the Mig-29 has a small to modest advantage.  With a helmet mounted sight, the Mig-29 has a huge advantage.

Someone dig up some of the training reports of USAF F-16s vs Luftwaffe Mig-29s.

The way I see it is some people are still mad that Hitler didnt finish the job, but they hope the Arabs will.  They quickly decry the holocaust like it never happened and laugh with glee at every suicide bomber.

Exactly.


The Israelis aren't attacking the syrians just for the hell of it.  The Syrians are supplying the different terrorist organizations that attack Israel.  They really don't attempt to hide it either.

Way I see it is that some people happily keep supporting a oppressive regime which is occupying areas which belong to other sovereign countries and which is actively using apartheid.

They're as good as nazies were; they think that other races are inferior and that's it's ok to practise "Lebensraum" policy, occupy areas other people are already living, drive them out from their homes and build settlements to the land which doesn't belong to them.

They surely learned well the lessons nazies gave them 60 years ago.
