RED FLAG '94 - 'Red Air cleared off' by Brigadier who went on to b0ll0ck the Blue Air F15 sweep for letting the Red Air F3s into the main package on the final mission. F3s go 'winchester' on B1s, F16s and F4 Wild Weasel packages. Brigadier most unhappy...
COPE THUNDER '97 - F15 sweep accuse F3s of 'cheating' for sitting 'strip alert' by watching JTIDS link 16 and waiting for tye right opportunity to launch against the sweep. Most F3s on that ex achieve between 3:1 to 10:1 kill ratios.
This was pre-ASRAAM and AMRAAM embodiment. Which, when combined with JTIDS, proved that you really could polish a turd!
Time to dry your eyes now, Nutty...
