Not like the British to steal Australian thunder but the purported shootdown of an Indon C130 was rumoured to be by a RAAF CAC27 Sabre. A Sidewinder kill.
The Urban Myth continues! The Sabre pilot has a name too. He was tragically killed in a civillian accident a few years ago.
RAAF spy missions against the Indons common. Low level and high level sorties, Canberra bombers in the main . No details have been released and I doubt they will in the present climate.
One of spy pilots a Pprune contributor. Missions from Darwin and Singapore. Gday EP.
Would a RAF, F15 equipped , have had a different air-air record?
