A trio of Mig-25s on radar....the radar is in the RIO cockpit which I didn't get a shot of.

Turning to intercept....rolling on the throttle.

I closed the distance a lot faster than I expected and by the time I got my speed brakes out and the weapons system screen sorted out I was only three miles away.
Sidewinder it is! I get a solid tone, lock and shoot lights are lit......

......missile released....speed brakes still out so that I can put some distance between the last two targets and myself.

The inset shows the Sidewinder about to go up the Migs' exhaust

On fire and going down.....if you look close you can see the fire ball in the distance over the mountains.

....there he is on the mountainside

Thanks 4 lookin'
