Venezuelan Fighter Shoots Down US F-16 over Cuba

Conflicting reports are emerging from Cuba today that allege the shooting down of an American F-16 Fighter Jet by a Venezuelan Sukhoi-30MK2 Russian Fighter Jet participating in large scale Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces wargames in Pinar del Rio province.
The United States has denied these reports and state that their F-16 Fighter Jet crashed off the coast of Cuba due to an ‘unknown’ mechanical malfunction with its pilot safely rescued after ejecting.
More curiously, however, and almost immediately after Russian Military Analysts reporting on this shoot down to the Kremlin, Cuban Defense Minister Raul Castro, the brother of the ailing Cuban Leader Fidel Castro and present leader of Cuba, issued this statement:
"If anyone attacks us, we're ready to pay any price necessary, but the price paid by the invaders of our country would be much higher."
Tensions in Latin America remain high after this latest incident, and the United States War Leaders admitting that their War on Terror has now expanded to South America with the introduction of American Military Forces into the conflict between Colombia and its rebel faction FARC.
Venezuelan President, Hugo Chavez, was also quick to denounce the United States by stating that it was the "most cynical, most murderous empire in all of history".
Chavez further stated that the American President, Bush, was plotting to assassinate him and vowed "100 years of war'' should the United States attack either Venezuela or Bolivia.
Concerns within the American intelligence communities are centered upon the growing power of Latin American Nations to throw off the yokes of oppression set upon them by their North American neighbors, and who have reaped incalculable wealth from their southern cousins while leaving mass poverty and environmental degradation as their most lasting legacy.
The growing power of Chavez’s Venezuela, throughout the entire Latin American World, shows no signs of abating as it spreads its vast oil wealth throughout the region in a direct threat to American and European banking and corporate interests.
Coupled with the closeness of Hugo Chavez with the Cuban regime, including Fidel Castro, an emerging, and to the United States dangerous, South American unity block is forming which will see the expulsion of American corporations from the vast wealth of Latin America.
What remains unknown to Russian Military Analysts is the United States militaries ability to counter their growing Latin American threat as their current military forces are said stretched to the ‘breaking point’.

Pilot safe after F-16 jet crashes off Florida Keys
March 12, 2007 (by Lieven Dewitte) - An Air Force Reserve F-16 pilot from 93rd "Makos" FS at Homestead was forced to eject after experiencing a mechanical problem and parachuted safely into the waters off the Florida Keys.
#87-0380 assigned to the 93rd FS shown here carrying a Litening II navigation/targeting pod, an ALQ-131 jamming pod and a AIM-9 air-to-air training missile.The pilot, who was not immediately identified, was rescued by the U.S. Coast Guard shortly after the fighter jet went down about 35 miles east of Marathon, said Lt. Col. Tom Davis, chief of public affairs at Homestead Air Reserve Base.
The F-16 (#87-0380) was one of two jets based at Homestead Air Force Reserve Base in south Miami-Dade County. After the pilot reached the water, at about 10.15h, he contacted his wingman to let him know he was all right,
The Coast Guard had dispatched a Falcon jet, a Dolphin helicopter, a 33-foot rescue boat and two cutters to the scene, said Luis Diaz, Coast Guard spokesman.
The exact cause of the crash is being investigated an an attempt is made to recover as much of the plane as possible.
The jet is one of the 17 F-16s belonging to the 93rd Fighter Squadron at Homestead, a base located located near the southern end of the Florida peninsula, about 25 miles south of Miami.
The squadron converted from the F-4C Phantom II to the F-16A in 1989 and upgraded to the F-16C model in 1995. The F-16s can be identified by the letters "FM" ("Florida Makos") and the mako shark displayed proudly on the tail.
