Buried Iraqi jets

[TX-Chukar]

This isn’t new, happened back in August I believe but someone just sent me some good pictures of them so I thought I would post it.  Thought it was pretty interesting










Reports were about two dozen aircraft were found buried.  Although this one is an older Foxbat Mig 25, at least one Mig 29 was recovered and some were said to have some advanced electronics that would place them post Gulf War ?  Buried up to 10 feet in the sand, sealed, some had their wings removed.

.....looking at the intakes on the jet that is hooked up to the tow tractor...no intake covers? I wouldn't want to be around when they fire the engines as i am sure that there is a ton of FOD in both of them!TX-CudaRecruiting OfficerTX-Cuda...one Shot...One KILL!

Wow is right, I'd go as far to say that there IS weapons of mass destruction that was hidin just as the planes were, hmmm, bet the public would like to have seen THAT on the news.B~T

I think i see red squares blocking the intakes and there was obviously some plastic covering the entire plane b4 burial i am sure as it is seen in a couple of the pics....just my 2 cents..Gold Leader over and out.Tx-Razor(trying new callsigns)Soylent Green Leader
