What about the old (and true) story of the Phantom that shot down a Jaguar during a Taceval in Germany in the late seventies.

One of the many stories to come out of this involves one of the Taceval team standing behind a fighter controller to record 'kills'.

Allegedly, on receiving the call 'This is Phantom 1, I've just shot down a Jag..blah blah blah' the Taceval team mate has replied;
' Oh no no no, doesn't this pri*ck read the kill criteria, he can't claim it, he only got one missile off the rails!'

Doh!
