Thanks TEEJ.
Mig 29, perhaps not, no smoke, but they were very noisy and appeared relatively small.
F15 unlikely as the fins were canted out; and usually the F15s carry external stores.
F22, possible, but with such acclaimed performance how did the fight degenerate to a low speed energy deficient situation
Does showing the bullet path on the HUD help energy management - it's like trying to poke a tiger with a piece of string.

Definite need for a repeat flight in this part of the country; and based on what was witnessed, I would put money on a Typhoon in a mixed environment.
