#1 I understand the 135 was unarmed. Chinese Pilot will benefit from this standoff back home. Australia is getting very nervous at this time. Seriously more to come.

#2 Someone Dale "talks to" told him the RC-135 was unarmed.

That'd be all of 'em, Dale.

April 1, 2001 - Chinese jet fighter pilot Major Wong Wei never found.

US crew held captive after plane for forced to land. Nobody in the US Gov't did much about it.

#5 Calling the RC-135 a "fighter-jet" is proof of how lazy the reporter/editor must be to not even research the most basic aspects of the story.

#7 #5 - I guess if it takes down a J-11 due to "kinetic impact", it's a "Fighter-Jet" or some such clickbait shit

#8 It turns out Fred has a J-11 in his image collection, so I added it to the article.

One of these days the cold that annoys me will depart, and I will be more useful.
