Very likely the pilots got their positions mixed up - the plane above has a big blindspot under his nose and the crew of the plane below wasn't keeping a visual of where the trailing plane was. 

This is similar to another US midair collision where a P-63 King Cobra collided with a B-17 on a similar aerial merge and everyone on board both aircraft were killed.

A miracle... the pilots of the lower plane could have been elected up onto the higher plane. 

Should go but toto.

Good idea!

As long as the pilot as brave as the little girl

If the pilot like these old men then better not!

Old stuff liao. Already available to tank crews near you.

Some more the display can be projected to helmet-AR for see-thru situation awareness and targeting in and outside the vehicle.

Of course any CEO would say his expensive airplane is a "non issue" in the real world of priceless action.

Almost Mach 3, 300km,  with a huge warhead.  Its no joke to any opposing navy.
