    2. Tough take a Photo from the Front Seat while lining up for a trap. But not sure how much of a view out the front a backseater has.

    3. Hard to think this could be as sharp as it appears thru canopy of following aircraft, been with telephoto, so I suspect it’s a composite photoshop style. Regardless, ballsy approach in these conditions, so consider what it’s like at night in weather.

    4. Video game AI.

      To be taken from above and behind by an actual aircraft, they'd either have to be in a dive (flying under 1000' above sea level), or inverted.
      Otherwise, the nose, HUD, and ten other things would obstruct that view.
      Unless they strapped a photographer to a wing pylon. So not.

      Thus, it was never an actual photograph.
      QED
