Three hits by hand held SAMs on large multi engine jets and no crashes.
Anyone still think airliners need millions of dollars worth of decoy equipment?

yeah but only because families could go to airports and see a mini fireworks display every time a jet is coming in for a landing. We need it "for the children."

Would you fly on a 4 engine plane if you knew a SAM would hit one of the engines?
It's not about reality, it's about perception.
