F-14 Tomcat and Libyan MiG-23 Dogfight

[DOGFIGHT AUDIO LINK – 7m:47secs – 1.39mb]

Just 14 days after the Pan Am bombing two U.S. fighters engaged some Libyan MiGs today. Something’s up. I was home tonight with my recorder and put it up to the TV so I could listen to the tape a little closer. The video they’re showing isn’t very good but the audio is pretty scary sounding. Not sure what’s going to happen with all this, but it can’t be good. Here’s a transcript.
