I look forward to more Russian and Syrian Jets being shot down. I think the Americans should have another accident! Another Oopsey moment!
I used to have respect for as a person who was reasonably level headed. But this sort of attitude puts you on the same level as ISIS and, if your attitude reflects that of those you support, then WWIII is just around the corner and not only Russia but the rest of the planet will be turned to glass!
I can see the reasononing as I am sure I have actually seen it in action over Cyprus and mentioned it in a previous post. (An aircraft doing a 18o degree turn, way in excess of a rate 1 turn) This technology has been proven to exist and the Russians are way ahead of the US when it comes to software applications. The argument promulgated here is sound.

UPDATE: A friend, George Abert, suggested a reason why the Turks shot down the Russian fighter-bomber over Syria. The Russians have a technology that they recently demonstrated against the newest US missile cruiser and Israel’s US jet fighters. The technology shuts down the communication systems of hostile forces, leaving them blind. He wonders if the Russian aircraft was shot down in order to encourage the Russians to use its unknown technology whenever Russian aircraft are in the vicinity of NATO and Israeli aircraft. He bets that the US has sent every Raven and ELINT specialist to the area in hopes that Russia’s use of the technology will allow them to learn enough about the system to duplicate it or learn how to block it.
