Those aren't your tax dollars. That's an old video and is from a foreign country. |

A lot of Air Forces in the world fly both types, but not the U.S. Scott Wilson |

I've done my share of low level high speed flying (B-52 340KTAS and B-1
540KTAS and higher) and I've done my share of dodging low altitude GA aircraft (500-1000ft AGL) I do not want to know how many I did not see, but those I did were far enough to miss with a Level-S.

not on heavy Bomber aircraft..
fighter type aircraft may engage their air-to-air radar mode when not using it for ground avoidance but then pick the air target out of the ground clutter, BT "Larry Dighera" wrote in message ...
