F-16 Fires Flares And Warns Off An Unauthorized Aircraft That Had Entered Air Space Over President Trump's Arizona Rally

 


 * Donald Trump was in Bullhead City in Arizona on Wednesday 
 * As he was speaking a F-16 was scrambled to investigate an unexplained plane 
 * The fighter jet released emergency flares to force the plane to make contact 
 * The plane was then safely escorted away from the area by the F-16 
 * Trump was delighted, saying: 'They gave the president a little display!' 

An Air Force jet was scrambled above Donald Trump's rally in Arizona on Wednesday after an unannounced plane flew overhead. 'Oh, look at that! Look, look, look!' the president yelled, pointing to the sky. 

The F-16 attempted to make contact, and the aircraft initially ignored the jets. The fighter plane then released flares, and the intruding aircraft then established radio communications and was escorted out the area. 

'They gave the president a little display! How about that? How about that?' said Trump. 'I wonder if the fake news caught that? Did you see that, camera? They never turn the camera. They never want to show anything that's good.'

Its very interesting its a F16, just yesterday i watched a dogfight of a F16 and a J15. F16 won with a guns kill but he had too because the AIM-9Xs wouldn't track. I don't want to speculate too much but whats a friendly dogfight between two super powers :)

After all these years and upgrades and newer models....the AIM-9X wouldn't track?
If only I had kept the receipts I'd get my money back.
