There was an interesting news items that received little coverage a while back in a Air Force exercise between the RAF new Typhoons and older aircraft that were used by the opposing Indian Air Force.

 

The Indians used tactics that the North Vietnamese used on the then 'super jet' of the day, the US F4 Phantom when it first arrived in Vietnam with no built-in gun and questionable pilot close-in manoeuvring performance.

 

The Indian Air Force aircraft were able manoeuvre in such a way that they managed to close right in very close and err personnel to the RAF Typhoons and much to the amazement were able to use their fighter aircrafts built-in gun and shoot them down..!!!

 

It transpired that the RAF pilots trained for either long range and over-the-horizon stand off missile attacks and were unprepared when the Indian fighter pilots managed to evade the missiles and close-in and out manoeuvre the Typhoon pilots. Ouch
