10 Percent True #19 P1: "Stinger" F-15E Fighter Pilot - Syria & Iraq Part 1
Part 1 of my interview with "Stinger", a current operational F-15E pilot (and previously, WSO) about his 2017 deployment to Iraq and Syria.
He was in the jet that downed one of the two Iranian drones shot down during that tour and recounts his experiences duelling Russian Flankers and 'kneecapping' the ISIS HQ in Raqa.
It's a fascinating interview that lifts the lid on what really happened between Russia and the US over Syria...
Part 2 will conclude the Syria tour, and Part 3 onwards will take a look at the Strike Eagle's capabilities, the process of converting from back- to front-seat, and the rising spectre of China.
50 second plug for Red Eagles
