Comment on When fighter jets are scrambled to intercept a plane for security reasons, what can they actually do?
It’s crazy they scrambled with zero offensive capabilities back then. Not even the 20mm cannon was loaded.
They weren’t scrambled if I remember correctly. They were airborne for a training mission and closer than the scrambled jets were. That’s why they had no munitions
