Flying bashi-bouzouks and junior Turks. What a company, lol. I am surprised they have MiG-29s. (MiG = Mikoyan i Gourevich)
None of these aircraft glide very well. Actually, without electronics, they fall out of the sky faster than a sack-full of loaded baby diapers. The Russians have, as recently demonstrated in the gulf incident, the ability to jam opponents electronics. In case of war, they’ll be facing Russian Air Force Pilots.
