OOOOhhhhh dear. Here we go....
However, even if the radar image is genuine, it shows a flight track that would put the plane over Turkish territory for only a few seconds.The flight path crosses a 2km-wide "isthmus" of Turkish territory that juts into Syria.At the Su-24's top speed, it would have flashed across that area in well under 10 seconds. Even if it was flying much slower, the map does not show the length of incursion into Turkish airspace that Turkey has claimed took place.Read more: http://www.smh.com.au/world/turkish-military-release-radar-image-tracking-russian-fighter-jet-over-turkish-territory-before-attack-20151124-gl751g.html
This is actually quite a frightening development in this war.There are also a couple of videos of Syrian rebels shooting at two Russian pilots in parachutes. Disgusting. This will only intensify Russia's resolve and escalate (and possibly widen) the conflict.Intense diplomacy is required to stop this escalating out of control...!
I cant understand why Turkey did it - its not like Russia were going to invade them. The point was... ?? From what that link above shows, it was split seconds and 2klms over the territory... at the speed the plane can do, that's not even a fart.
Yep...It does look that way. Very disturbing. Putin is not exactly a sane man.
x2I updated it for you
he and the KGB already have your location
Hey leave KB out of it
Gezz Mate ...get ya mind outta the can will ya !!!!!!!!!! Cheers Tracker.
yep, was thinking the same thing. Maybe IS isn't as antiquated in their thinking as we might think. Why blow up and kill people themselves when they can get major countries to fight each other?
This is not going to end well. A pissed off Rusky like Putin is not going to take this lying down.Could be the start of the next cold World war.
