Complete $hit, rip the Fing band-aid off and call it what it is.
1 hour ago1 hr Lots of possibilities that could lead to something like this that don't include nefarious motives. There are enough US on US frats in training and combat to not need jumping to traitorous motives to explain a mistake like this.That air picture was likely exponentially more complicated than anything he had ever trained. Very possible the dude thought there was a flight of missiles that were minutes or seconds from hitting his country and potentially killing his family and friends. I'd have to imagine that most pilot's frat risk math would change a bit in that scenario.
1 hour ago1 hr Had 4 Kuwaiti’s in my UPT class (1987) 2 washed out, the other 2, bottom of the class, both got fighters in the KAF……I flew the 1st Fighter Wing (F-15’s Langley) into Daharan 2 days after the Iraqis invaded Kuwait in Aug 1990….As we taxied in, there were rows of Kuwaiti A-4’s lined up on the ramp, with “Free Kuwait” stenciled on the fuselage…I asked why they weren’t attacking the Iraqi’s in Kuwait, and they said one of the pilots left for Cairo….
