World War 3 Coming: Turkey Shot Down Russian Aircraft On The Border With Syria!!

Russia and Putin will surely retaliate. NATO will come to the aid of NATO country Turkey and all hell will break loose!
World War 3 is coming! Buying gold nao!

The Turkish military has reportedly shot down a Russian military aircraft on the border with Syria.
Russia's defence ministry said an Su-24 had crashed on Syrian territory after being hit by fire from the ground, and that its pilots had managed to eject.
But Turkish military officials said Turkish F-16s had shot down the plane after repeatedly warning its pilots they were violating Turkish airspace.
Video footage showed the plane crashing into mountains in Latakia province.

It is believed to have come down in a rebel-held area.
Russia launched an air campaign against opponents of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government in late September.
Pilot 'captured'
The Russian defence ministry confirmed on Tuesday morning that a Russian Su-24 had "crashed on Syrian territory, having been hit from the ground" while it was flying at an altitude of 6,000m (19,685ft).

Russia's defence ministry said it had data proving the plane did not enter Turkish airspace
"Efforts are being made to ascertain what happened to the pilots. According to preliminary reports, the pilots have managed to self-eject," the ministry was quoted as saying by the Interfax news agency.
The ministry stressed that "throughout its flight, the aircraft remained exclusively above Syrian territory", adding: "Objective monitoring data shows it."

f-15 kill rate 105-0
F-16 kill rate 88-0

Don't complain when Singapore buy us planes. Us planes have not fought fairly since Vietnam war.

NATO ally Turkey shoots down Russian plane to protect their precious terrorists

Turkish military has shot down a Russian war plane near its border to Syria, Ankara and Moscow confirms.The Russian Sukhoi Su-24 jet was shot down by Turkish F-16 fighter planes on Tuesday morning after violating the country's air space and ignoring nearly a dozen warnings, army officials said.However, Russia's Ministry of Defence claims the jet was in Syrian airspace, and was shot down from the ground.Footage shows the plane engulfed in flames as it comes crashing down in Syria's Turkomen Mountains, an area which has been the cause of recent tensions between Turkey and Russia.*Scroll down for video*

Conflicting stories: Turkey claims they shot the plane down as it was violating the country's airspace after the pilots ignored 'ten warnings in the space of five minutes', but Russia says the jet was in Syrian airspace

The area is mainly populated by Turkmens - Syrians citizens, but ethnic Turks - and is the target of a current Syrian government offensive, where President Bashar al-Assad's ground troops are supported by Russian airstrikes.The Turkish army said the pilots of the Russian jet had been warned 'ten times in the space of five minutes' before the plane was shot down.Both pilots ejected themselves from the jet and could be seen parachuting down to the ground, where one*has been reported dead and the other captured by Syrian Turkmen rebels.*A video posted on Twitter by a man believed to be a Syrian-Turkmen rebel soldier, one of many groups fighting against the Syrian government who are not allied with ISIS, claims to show the captured pilot.The Turkomen Mountains is controlled by several insurgent groups including al-Qaida's branch in Syria, the Nusra Front, and the 2nd Coastal Division that consists of local Turkmen fighters.*

Just hours before the Russian jet was shot down, Ankara called for a U.N Security Council meeting to discuss attacks on Turkmen areas in Syria.Russian pilots operating out of the Latakia air base in Syria have a small escape kit to help them on the ground if they are forced to eject from their jet.*In the Sukhoi Su-24 Fencer, the escape kit is located in a small compartment underneath the ejector seat.*The escape kit contains an inflatable raft, in case the aircraft is brought down over water. There is also a radio beacon which will relay the pilot's location to any potential rescue aircraft.*The pilot also has a radio, signal flares, a machete and a knife. It is likely the pilot will have a sidearm to defend himself.**It followed a summoning of Moscow's ambassador on Friday, when Ankara demanded an immediate end to the Russian military operation near the Syrian border saying the Russian actions did not 'constitute a fight against terrorism' but the bombing of civilians.Ambassador Andrey Karlov was warned during the meeting that the Russian operations could lead to serious consequences, the ministry said.A Turkish military statement, issued before it was confirmed that the jet was Russian, said the plane entered Turkish airspace over the town of Yayladagi, in Hatay province.'On Nov. 24, 2015 at around 09.20am, a plane whose nationality is not known violated the Turkish airspace despite several warnings (ten times within five minutes) in the area of Yayladagi, Hatary.'Two F-16 planes on aerial patrol duty in the area intervened against the plane in question in accordance with the rules of engagement at 09.24am.'*

Russia's Defence Ministry said in a statement that they are looking into the circumstances of the crash of the Russian jet.'The Ministry of Defence would like to stress that the plane was over the Syrian territory throughout the flight.'The statement also claimed that the*Sukhoi-24 had been shot down from the ground at the altitude of*6,000metres(3.73m).Vladimir Putin's spokesman called the downing of the Su-24 warplane a 'very serious incident' but declined to comment further until more facts emerged.'It is just impossible to say something without having full information,' said Dmitry Peskov.*

*Russia's Ministry of Defence claims the jet was in Syrian airspace, and was shot down from the ground

Russia's government-run TV Zvezda claimed the warplane had been in Syrian airspace the entire time, which allegedly could be proven by 'control systems', a ministry spokesman said.Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has spoken with the chief of military staff and the foreign minister about the developments on the Syrian border, the prime minister's office said in a statement, without mentioning the downed jet.*He has ordered the foreign ministry to consult with NATO,-the United Nations and related countries on the latest-developments, his office said.*Last month, Turkish jets shot down an unidentified drone that had also violated Turkey's airspace.***Turkey and Russia have long been at loggerheads over the Syrian conflict, with Ankara seeking Assad's overthrow while Moscow does everything to keep him in power.*
