Treat for my intel friends. A (formerly) rare look at the NATO codename Flagon. Of particular interest is a view of its early track-while-scan intercept radar and a view of its ground control radar station along with the evolution of the wingtips from its early Fishbed inspired shape. Also an interesting shot of two Flagons downing an IL-28 Beagle target drone. 25 years ago this would have been gold wed have to risk our lives for. This is the aircraft that downed Korean Airlines Fight 007 off Sakhalin Island in 1983. Today its a Facebook post. Enjoy.
