The United States has been caught repainting several of their fighter jets in RUSSIAN Air Force Colors. Training? Or are they preparing to launch a horrific bombing inside Syria, then blaming it on the Russians as a precursor to US military action inside Syria?

A ridiculous claim. The United States practices mock combat with American planes painted to look like Russian fighters day in and day out. it's been going on for decades.

If the American military intended to fly false flag attacks against Syria they wouldn't let someone stand there and take photos. The aircraft would be painted secretly in hangars and only wheeled out in darkness.

Any news source can be discounted for any number of reasons if you choose not to believe it, but the fact of the matter is that the United States has painted aggressor training aircraft in paint schemes resembling their potential adversaries for decades.

Here's a Wikipedia article. Feel free to discredit it because it is an open-source publication.

Sounds like the "opposition" team is putting on their Russian suits. Makes more sense to be using the Saudi colors.

It's obviously more than a little late to try such tactics since the Russians have put up more advanced air defenses. They would likely be shot down. It would not serve the intended purposes. Snowball7 is right about that site. They try to put up sensationalistic news for hits.

I live very close to a large Naval air station. There is a resident Aggressor squadron there , who's planes are all painted in Russian fashion. Some still sport the old Soviet Red Star. They use various aircraft, but the F5 Tiger, A4 Skyhawk a d more recently the F16 Falcon make up the bulk, but I have seen one F18 painted in Russian style Sea type cammo.

This doesn't alarm me at all.
