I just watched the answer on Fox. the Russian plane flew across a peninsula of turkey that protrudes into Syria. It is narrow.

If it was shot in turkey, it had momentum that carried it the short distance across the protrusion back into Syria where it spun in.

Further, the protrusion is Turkish but the Syrians claim it. I’m putting forth the thought that the Russians used Syrian maps that didn’t identify the territory as Turkish. On the TV map it is all plain as day.

Well, if it was on TV, that settles it.

I saw the radar track and it was a small segment of Turkey. I didn’t know that Syria claimed it was their land, so thanks for that bit of info.
