Syrian Fishbed emergency caught on video
Filmed at Daraa, in southwestern Syria, the following video shows a Syrian Arab Air Force Mig-21 Fishbed seemingly leaking fuel before fire develops.
It’s not clear whether the aircraft sustained battle damage to its starboard wing or the leak was caused by a different kind of cause. The video not even shows whether the pilot was forced to eject (most probably he had to abandon the Mig-21considing that a huge fire is clearly visible at the end of the footage leaving little room to any other option).
