Turkey shoots down "Russian Jet" near border

[NL_Turk]

you shot an aircraft in syrian territory. you always scramble jets but dont start shooting one when it comes close to border.
you engage when it crosses the border

That is what they did, russian plane kept crossing the border flying in circles, pilot is warned multiple times with no response. Only after that the plane was shot.
Since there was no reply from the pilot, I'm guessing TurAF could not even have known if it was a Russian or Syrian plane.

And I'm no expert but a plane would not fall straight down like a brick right?
It could have been shot over Turkish territory and fallen down across the border.

There is no defence pact between Turkey and Pakistan. It exists in your head only.

Is there a defence pact between Syria and Iran or Yemen and Iran ? Turkey is our friend it is our duty to defend it.

Correction, we fired at the Russian aircraft within the Turkish borders (HH026). Missile hit the aircraft at HH037. Basically we hit it within our borders.

Sana veya bir başkasına bir tane bile hakaret etmedim. Bana verilen her cevapta ise hafif veya ağır hakaretlere maruz kaldım. Bu kimin rezillik çıkarttığını ve kimlerin tartışma adabına bağlı olduğunu gösteriyor. Uzun zamandır burada yazarım. Hiç bir zaman bu kadar kısa süre içerisinde bu kadar fazla hakaret maruz kalmamıştım. Zaten sizin gibi insanlar benim görüşlerimi desteklemesin. Hata bende kimlere laf anlatmaya çalıştım.

Halifeyi desteklemeye devam edin. 29 Ekimlerde yürüyüşe çıkar, Anıtkabire gider içinizi rahatlatırsınız.

I'm sorry for the non-Turkish speakers. We've needed to discuss some specifics about the issue in Turkish since both of us were more comfortable discussing this in Turkish.

Ben o halifeyi protesto ettğim için göz altına alındım, biber gazı yedim merak etme. Daha fazla konuşmaya gerek yok. Durumun farkında değilsin sen. O halifeyi içerde yıkacaksın. Dışarıya malzeme vermeyeceksin. Yarın BM barış gücü buraya demokrasi için gelir veya Rusya IŞİD destekçisi diye ülkeyi işgale kalksa kına yakarsın sen.

Sorry for Turkish.

Putin is invovled in high stakes poker game. Russia was calling Turkish bluff but Turkey took the decisive action. This is not Ukraine but Syria and it is Turkey's backyard. Turkey is justified to defend its borders.

Turkey is a NATO member.

We will coordinate our defense of Turkey with NATO.

Russia is nothing producing for export except natural ressources gas, oil e.g. Turkey tends to cancel Russian pipelines and all other projects also Nuke Power plants, Japan is waiting

According to claims on this image AIM-120C7 was fired from a falcons 50 km aways.
Taken the claim at face value, did the Fencer had a shot by employing ECM against the incoming AMRAM?
