Youtube video and breakdown of what really happened. The fact that CAG never gave any feedback after warning yellow weapons hold is odd.... I guess this was just and early FAFO

The day 2 Navy Tomcats shot down 2 Libyan migs, lots of debate on whether they were justified

Was working in a comm center when this happened - it was pretty exciting and surreal at the same time.

Well it was only 3 years after the Libyans killed a bunch of GIs in Berlin. Things were as spicy as they’d been in a while and Momar Quadahfi was feeling his oats.
