real life military event.. in short.
Hi all.
perhaps it is offtopic, but there is another "real military event". I saw a few Gripen dogfights just above my head in Saturday.
Czech fighter pilots are practiseing very often in north-east Bohemia (main part of the Czech republic).
If I go there, I hear them every day (in good weather I see them every day).
Pictures crated by cheap-old digi BenQ camera....

Re: NEWS about unreal life military event.. in short.
So, I wanted to try it...I have bought one shoulder lunched SAM in black market. Here is the shot, just before L159B's left wing hit...:wow..with this level of resolution you can identify and fire a MANPADS or Electro-opitc guided SAM!!
Seriously - there was an open day in the Czech AB Caslav yesterday.(Caslav - Chotusice in Falcon 4 world)
L159 Alcas bombed runway and Hinds attacked some offending troopers...
Some good old (and young) stuff...
Sorry for perhaps too "personal" attemp - just wanted to share some AC photos...

For child - it was suitable... how about close-up of L-159 pit?
For me it was quite small - as usual in combat airplane (I know only Mig21,23 and Su7 pit personaly).
Perhaps some smaller pilot is handling this machine, because I had to bend down a little to aim throught the HUD (I am 182cm). But Ifelt, there is more space around then for example in Mig21pit.
conclusion - I was lucky, I can sit in it

Ouch I am sorry, I totaly missed your demand. It is by reason of my English. Ok, I have only the published view with my son, but in much better quality. I could adjust colors and contrast a little bit and make it clearly demonstration. But the pit will be still switched off.
So here are some web picts:

Re: NEWS about real life military event.. in short.
thoughts and findings about latest hot spots..
1. Recently India deploys more su30MKI and six army divisions to China-India border..Arunachal Pradesh area, where first china-indo war broke out in 1962. next hot spot? After China completing a railroad to Tibet last year, PLA has mobilized more units into this area as well..
A futuristic, or ficitional conflict in this area will composed of flankers, modern mechanized units, and mountain corps/airmobile units.
2. South china sea is another hot spot. PLA just hold a joint exercise deep into this area..fighter, bomber, tanker, ships, and amphibious units all joined this exercise.. seesms to be a signal to SEA countries..
most PLA units probably launched from Hainan island, two naval bases labeled as red dots.
