"Continues" Moonfish: How did the Armed Forces pilot "Absolute Record" on F-16 (video)

"His case is continued by another pilot, whose call sign, unfortunately, cannot be called now. For all our time," he said. The Ukrainian pilot, whose name is still unknown, destroyed 6 winged missiles on the eve of New Year from the F-16 aircraft. "This is an absolute record. No pilot in the world on the F-16 was beating winged missiles from the aviation gun, and even 6 pieces," Ignat said. Four rockets were destroyed by aviation missiles.

Two more, without any missile ammunition, the defender of the sky struck from the gun. "Having heard the whole goals (he was taken to another area, and he heard that missiles were flying from this direction), he asked for permission and decided to try to do what Moonfish did. That is, to knock down the F-16, the wings of the missile. It was already found on the ground that the pilot managed to destroy two rockets several rockets at once. According to Ignati, this news "flew" in the west.

He explained that although Ukraine receives from partners not the latest modifications of fighters, they are better than what is already in service. F-16 opportunities are wider, it is a plane that Moonfish dreamed of. The exact number of such birds did not reveal the military, but specified that it was about "tens". He remembered how at the beginning of a full -scale war, when Russian aircraft flew to strike, there was nothing to help.

The leadership of the Air Force was difficult to observe the situation in the sky, which was recorded by systems. Today, the picture is different, not 12 Russian aircraft are flying, but Ukrainian - on the east. "Pilots, all of Ukraine waited that we are beating them in the end. We beat them hard," Ignat added. We will remind, the head of the communications department of the Air Force Command Yuri Ignat told, whose fighters of specialties were forbidden to transfer to infantry.
