Default F/A-18 "Shoots Down" A4 -- The Long Version

For those who were intrigued by the mystery of how (and why) that F/A-18
accidentally "shot down" a photo-ship A4 Skyhawk (as shown in a short video
clip here a couple of weeks ago), here is a much longer version of the video
that shows several different angles, all the way to ejection.

It was not a missile test, but rather was a drop tank separation test flight
gone awry.

With many thanks to Bill T, who kindly sent us the video...
