Aim-9

Now if it had been a SU-35 that would have impressed me. But a 24 ? Hell, the Turks could have splashed that with one of the F-104's they probably still fly at Incirlik. LOL

Thanks to whoever it was that posted the NPR story on how ISIS sells oil.

Someone is buying it, it's financing their wars.

Exactly. The Su-24 is a 60's era aircraft that was never intended for air to air combat to begin with. It would have been a bigger story had the Turks not been able to shoot it down with an F-16.
