Basically proves how two SU-27 could stay on the tail of that German dumbheaded german teenager who landed in his bitchcraft in the middle of Red Square.

This on the picture looks like an acrobatic Sukhoi, that has far more powerful engine than this Fun Cessna that Rust was flying to Red Square. If this plane flies on full speed... it may be 300 or smth km/h. Rust's Cessna would rather not reach such speed.

Do you realize how difficult it is for those two fighters to fly that slowly. Awesome pilots!!

The lowest speed for Sukhoi is 176 km. I believe Cessna can fly that fast.

I'm trying to think of a similar picture, but with an F-15 or an F-16 flying with a Spitfire. It was probably RAF or maybe Israeli. Anyway, the jet had to work overtime to maintain formation with the Spitfire; it wasn't so easy at the low end of the jet's throttle. I remember the fighter needing to take an nose up attitude to maintain formation.
