    I'll guess that it's Russian which would make things REALLY interesting.
    Not ones to **** about with the Turks like.

    Yes..They have massive fire power and the best equipment in the world, but the fact is that they make a hell of a lot of mistakes which in my opinion can only be put down to training..

    They shot down a Russian fighter jet last week as well didn't they?

    Something tells me, the way Russian planes end up in foreign airspace so often, that their Sat Nav's are just not very good.

    The planes probably have to take emergency action which will disrupt their course, I hear they have a Stalin issue.
