Air Force declassifies elite aggressor program
The U.S. Air Force has declassified program Constant Peg, a training program which American fighter pilots flew against Soviet-designed MiG fighters.
From 1977 through 1988, Air Force, Navy and Marine aircrews flew against the MiGs which were flown out of the Tonopah Test Range.
The Red Eagles flew the MiG-17, MiG-21 and the MiG-23 in one-on-one and multi-bogey dogfights high over the Nellis Air Force Base ranges.
