Questionable! Looks like a video game shot. 30 degree dive bomb angle looks right, but the fleet is using high altitude precision, straight and level gps guided JDAMs for strikes. No drogue delay on ejection. So it Hornet had to be really slow to not get drogue stabilization delay on ejection. Roll left on pulling off target to see their hit makes sense, but in a contested environment, there would not be ANY hanging around the tgt area. Tiny flash could indicate a MANPAD but no smoke trail. Manpads smoke from launch to impact. So, I vote a fake!
