Default Russia 'shot down its own planes'

This is ridiculous !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8142999.stm

A report in a Russian military journal claims that half the planes Russia lost in its war with Georgia last year were shot down by friendly fire.

The article in the Moscow Defence Brief magazine also claims that Russia lost more military aircraft than it is admitting to.

The report is highly critical of Russian forces during the brief war.

Go to options --> Preferences
Uncheck the box marked "Friendly Fire"
Apply changes

No wait, that only works in games.

And these are the retards that India buys its weapons from.

"Friendly Fire is not Tolerated" - COD4

And this thing would popup even we shoot the friendly on S.A.S missions too. I think InfinityWard should have removed this for S.A.S missions....

I guess Russians had nothing to shoot at so why not their own team mates...

Try to take somethings lightly.

I can easily get an idea that who is the one who has no life.

And perhaps if your brain is working, then you can easily understand that the comments are NOT on war.

dun follow the n00bs and you can save your team mates.

the guys shooting at planes might not know how to distinguish enemy and friendly planes[as hes from the army, not the airforce]. and man, he got gr8 aim:-P

although you are not always right, but sometimes you'll make some legitimate statements. Keep going KID

dear blondie, please read the statements correctly. All of the members are remembering their friendly fire incidents in their favorite games. This is one way of responding..

I mean how should we respond to this prediction...It's not any one's fault as the guys who shot the airborne are not shooting them intentionally. That said, we have to respond some thing to the starter of the thread. We responded this way. thanda lo...
