Description
The icing on the cake of today's outing at Zagreb Airport (Croatia), "Knight 01" is seen recovering home after a practice QRA scramble with sistership 116 "Knight 02", trailing a kilometer or so behind. In full intercept config, both were armed with two AA-8 short-range heat seeking missiles, as well as the traditional centerline tank. Despite being almost 40 years old, Croatian Air Force MiGs still continue to ply the skies, and will soon undergo a life extension program that'll keep them in front line service for up to 10 more years.
