Who would have won that dog fight? Hmmm..probably the Chinese fighter, and not the lumbering surveillance craft.

Hmmm..probably the Chinese fighter, and not the lumbering surveillance craft. The last time a Chinese fighter aircraft got that close to a P-130, the Chinese pilot, who's name was Wong Wei (not kidding...) ended up splashing his aircraft into the water and the P-130 made an emergency landing on Hainan Island.
The Chinese likely got ALOT of our secret spy intel from that incident, but they lost a pilot.

Hmmm..probably the Chinese fighter, and not the lumbering surveillance craft. Back in 2001, a Chinese fighter collided with a US EP3 surveillance aircraft. The P3 managed to land safely, the Chinese pilot had to eject.
