Norks shot down an SU-27 with a manpad

If I knew what a Nork, a SU-27, and a manpad was, I bet I would learn something from your post.

On the chance you're serious instead of just pulling our leg, I'll tell you.

Nork = North Korean
SU-27 = Sukhoi Su-27 is a twin-engine supermaneuverable fighter aircraft designed by Sukhoi. Used by several Communist block nations.

manpad = a fairly new term for a Surface to air missle which is small enough to be manned by a soldier. Think "Man portable Air Defense" weapon.

‘Norks’ are North Koreans, an SU-27 is a Russian copy of an F-15, and a Manpad is a Man-portable air-defense system.
