Together with his radar intercept officer (RIO) Mohammad Masbough, they hold the record for shooting down three aircraft with one single missile.

This took place on 7 January 1981, when they shot down three Iraqi MiG-23s that were flying in a close formation at around 2,000 feet over Kharg Island.

They shot them down with one AIM-54 Phoenix missile, hitting the one in the middle and damaging the other two from the explosion.

Cooper and Bishop list the three MiG-23s among confirmed kills by Iranians, without being able to identify the pilots.[6]

I was driving down HWY 100 yesterday evening and this dude passed me by. He was riding this white retro-modern motorcycle and the outstanding feature was this vee-shaped turn signal module on the back fender that looked like a ladies' string bikini bottom. My google searching skills are somewhat lacking, but I was captivated by the style of the bike (and the guy riding it) and I just want to know what make and model this one might be........

Never seen it before and it's so different from the usual type of street hogs we see here....'>......

There's an entire industry for custom turn signals for motorbike, so it's a bit hard to guess by your description.

After originally discovering the deception near countries under sanction, Windward has since seen it spread as far as Australia and Antarctica.

“It’s a new way for ships to transmit a completely different identity,” said Matan Peled, a founder of Windward. “Things have unfolded at just an amazing and frightening speed.”


West, US, uses location information for enforcing Western imposed rules which non western nations do not adhere to and consider illegal.

Same as West misuses "SWIFT" information to enforce Western imposed rules .. result is now parallel system developed and gaining subscribers.

Perhaps such hyper-speed trains may find an application in moving cargo, however, human passengers are going to need to wear [anti-]g-suits just as fighter pilots and astronauts do.
