Research is your friend.

So you can't provide the proof.

I can but I won’t.   There’s a difference.  (I already posted an article with the details, come to think of it.)


I am not required to do your research for you.   Do what I did and look it up yourself.

So they were scared of provoking WW3 instead of their limited proxy war.  Makes sense. Worked out well enough.

It's still anecdotal. I never suspected Milo would demand the NSA or Russian documents (material none of us have easy access to nor would they likely be online) in order to accuse Captain Williams of being a liar if they weren't provided post haste. I was merely impressed with the story and took it at face value. I think that's not going too far in this community. It's not like we're praising Voss. :)

Outdated material. 


He is credited with four, confirmed by the Soviets who listed the names of the pilots he downed.

You stay classy, San Diego.   Meanwhile, go do some research and educate yourself.

"All four MiGs were flown by Soviet Naval Aviation pilots: Russian sources confirmed Williams' claims, 40 years later, stating that the pilots lost were Captains Belyakov and Vandalov, and Lieutenants Pakhomkin and Tarshinov."
