    1. “Oh geez, sorry, Comrads, our pilot felt threatened and blew that fuckin thing to smithereens, lol”

    2. As someone who grew up in Fairbanks, Alaska (and just moved back here a year ago) during the Cold War, it is bringing back some memories of knowing that Russia was just fucking around near Alaska to try to provoke the US. Ugh.

    3. Russia tests boundaries. They want to know what they can get away. If we draw a line in the sand, they will inch past it and see what we do.

    4. So, Lieutenant, where exactly were you?

      Well we (thank you) Started up on a 6, when he pulled from the clouds, and then I moved in above him.

      Well, if you were directly above him, how could you see him?

      Because I was inverted.

      Bullshit.

      No, he was, man. It was a really great move. He was inverted.

      Russians treat jets like they do firearms. They handle them like a bunch of fucking dipshit morons. Just like you’d expect

      He was just trying to get a good picture with his phone, comrade.

    7. don’t know much about modern dogfighting, but i’m pretty sure that you don’t want to be in front of the other guy…

      Is it bold? Yes.

      Is it illegal? No

      Is this a tactic of testing boundaries that all modern militaries routinely use to make observations about their opponents’ defensive capabilities? …also yes.

      Remember in jurassic park when the guy said something about how the raptors would jump into the electric fences to check for possible weaker spots?

      Same thing.

      Would i be pleased about it if I’d been the f16 pilot?. No…be more like “this fucking guy!” And my wingman would be in the radio saying all “the fucking audacity of this bitch right here bro!” And I’d be like “fucking I know right!? What a dick man”
