Have a hard time picturing the USAF shooting down IAF aircraft . . .

So do I. The USAF is so thoroughly inferior to the IAF in talent that it would take a lucky shot to even nick an Israeli plane. . .

The USAF is the finest and best trained and equipped in the world. The Israeli pilots participate in Red Flag exercises over Nevada and in Top Gun and have never won either. Israelis are good but you give them far too much credit.

The IAF are good, but they are not gods.

THeyy fly American made planes, we understand EXACTLY what it would take to down an IAF.

WOuld we shoot?

DId the IAF kill Americans on board a ship?

Put another way

Shoot ‘em down, if they’re friendly, we can anyways apoligise, if they are bad guys, then we are ahead.....
