Must be in your w** dreams. This thread has nothing to with the USAF ... of course one will know that only if one could read.
Correcting you on your own information, from your very first post in this thread:
During the last Cope India exercise in February 2004, American F-15 pilots had admitted finding it bizarre that their Indian counterparts had
routed them in many maneuvers. This time round, the buzzword was a studied ‘jointness’, though pilots told this newspaper off the record that the
IAF had maintained its ‘‘one-up’’.
The USAF is especially under pressure from the Pentagon not to show the F-16 Falcon in bad light, since Washington wants this exercise to work also as
a subtle tool for sales to New Delhi. Last year, Senate hearings in the US following the Gwalior exercises indicated that Washington had recognised
that its air dominance was severely eroded following the F-15 Eagles' poor performance against Indian Sukhoi-30s.
This type of quote is common to most, if not all of your threads. That is one of my issues.
Another is that only thing that appears to be new on this thread is that you found pictures of this plane where it was painted yellow
instead of
the usual white, green and orange.

Last, with only 4 out of the 30 posts (87%) on this thread by someone other than yourself, you're doing a little better than before. BTW, the 2 page
listing of all your threads in this category translates to around 100 very similar threads! Using this thread as an example, we can multiply that by
the 30 or more times you post in your own threads and we come to an estimated 3,000 posts by you on this subject!
Flogging the subject to death, indeed ...

..try looking at things in a more constructive spirit ... and stop squibbing
about air exercise results.
