I meant US engagements. ROE usually requires eyes on. I did find one incident where F-15s took out some Mig-23s in Iraq BVR, AWACS controlling. I don't know if the F-14s took out the Libyan aircraft BVR during Reagan's time.

BVR doesn't seem to happen as much as burn and turn up close.

I’m surprised that Obama’s ROE don’t mandate the use of beanbag rounds for air-to-air combat.
