It's more likely they are after the Su35's radar and avionics.Mike Faganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08745281285031316740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-56001840614129428812013-12-17T04:17:56.545+08:002013-12-17T04:17:56.545+08:00:) Good luck with that.

But in this case I merely suggest a picket that didn't 'charge' would be derelict in its job of screening intruders from an opportunity to cause mischief, just like any bodyguard. That has to do with Rules of Engagement, something with which the US has great fondness. opithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01621946866211400380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10698887.post-89897932826095069312013-12-16T14:58:10.339+08:002013-12-16T14:58:10.339+08:00As I said, I believe the US claim, it's a pret...As I said, I believe the US claim, it's a pretty typical Chinese tactic.

I can recall too many tales from the US/USSR 'cold war' of 'Crazy Ivan' and of close maneuvers that resulted in actual contact. In any case, when daring a picket guard one should not expect flowers.
