When F-16 Falcons Ate Hawks for Breakfast

简介：

On February 28, 1994, a group of six Serbian J-21 Jastreb attack aircraft led by pilot Ranko Vukmirovic, were on a mission to take out a military factory in Novi Travnik during the Bosnian War. Some 50 miles away a pair of two American F-16Cs piloted by Captain Robert Wright and Captain Scott O'Grady from 526th Fighter Squadron supported the no-fly zone over Bosnia as part of Operation Deny Flight. Although aware of the F-16 presence and possible consequences, Serbian pilots continued their bombing run. The Americans engaged the Jastrebs, leading to the first NATO combat engagement in its history. 00:00 J-21 Jastrebs are on a bombing raid 02:08 Jastrebs drop their bombs 02:58 Falcon aim for the enemy 05:32 Second pair of Jastrebs are hit 06:52 Third pair of J-21s vs F-16 07:54 2 more F-16s on the horizon 10:11 Falcons vs the last Jastreb 11:04 Banja Luka incident
