I asked about the source about Turkish jet shooted down by Greek airforce missile in International Airspace, not asking greek propaganda about so called "airsiace violation".
Maybe try reading the source next time. Like I said, I'm here to debate the operation against Isis. I don't have time for these childish off topic debates.
But here is a quote from the aviationist.
In the past some of these mock dogfights did not end well. In Jun. 1992 a Greek Mirage F1 crashed during an aerial engagement with a Turkish F-16. In February 1995, a TuAF F-16 crashed after being intercepted by Greek Mirage F1s. In Oct. 1996, a HAF Mirage 2000 fired an R.550 Magic II and shot down a Turkish F-16D that had violated the Greek airspace.
On May 23, 2006, two HAF F-16s intercepted a TuAF RF-4 escorted by two F-16s: the subsequent dogfight resulted in a midair collision between a TuAF F-16 and a HAF F-16: whilst the Turkish pilot ejected safely, the Greek pilot died in the incident.
