on April 1, 2001 a US spyplane "collided" with Chinese J-8 fighter over Yellow Sea

Considering that one was a four-turboprop transport aircraft (the same P-3 Orion shown in the artwork just above), and the other was a turbojet supersonic fighter designed for dogfighting, there can really only be one valid interpretation of who hit whom.

Oh lord... ::)

As stated, it's from some odd chinese site. I used to use it for Nationstates as my primary tactical transport plane.
