Ah well. | I saw a painting of one camouflaged intercepting a "Bear" Bomber - the title was "What If."
Nice photo CC - that's known as a "Skin Shot."

Country: | What the hell happened? Is that a target drone? That looks like a missile trail. I doubt the Delta is making that smoke.
(Am I observant or what?  ) |

Country: | It looks like a droned F-106, probably out of Tyndall AFB. It looks like it took a hit right up the tail pipe!

Country: | Nope they could reach between 2.2 and 2.5 depending on the version. The F-18 Hornet can only reach about 1.8, well the earlier versions that is. I dont know about the F-18E.
