In this gripping account, F-15C pilot Rick “Kluso” Tollini recounts his dramatic MiG-25 Foxbat shootdown during Operation Desert Storm. What began as a routine Scud-hunting escort mission quickly escalated when Iraqi fighters launched against a U.S. Navy strike package. Tollini and his wingman, “Cherry" Pitts, intercepted the threat, engaging two Foxbats in a high-speed, low-altitude dogfight. Using superior tactics and training, they outmaneuvered the Iraqi pilots - one MiG disintegrated under Tollini’s AIM-7 Sparrow, the other was downed by Pitts. Tollini describes the chaos, the split-second decisions, and the surreal sight of the Foxbat “sinking like a ship into the undercast” before victory rolls over the desert.

Maestro Renken recounts intelligence findings that ISIS fighters often used amphetamines during assaults, enabling small forces to sustain intense, rapid attacks for 48–54 hours before crashing. This drug-fueled tempo initially overwhelmed defenders. Once identified, coalition planners advised allies, like the Kurds in Kobani, to delay counterattacks until fighters entered the crash phase.")
