I didn't know we had been "chased" in Bosnia (serious here - not trying to be funny) Can you provide the link?

Sorry, should have clarified, not chased but ,if I'm correct, last confirmed shoot downs of Mig. Bosnia 1999 USAF F-16 vs. Mig 29

Yugoslav & Serbian MiG-29s
Roger that. I knew about those kills in Bosnia....but I keyed on your "chased" comment meaning that we had been on the defensive. Remember when the F-16 guy nearly became an ace with the kills against the 'Grobs' wasn't it?

Edit: From Wikipedia
On 28 February 1994, 4 J-21 and 2 IJ-21 Jastrebs and 2 J-22 Oraos had violated the no-fly-zone to conduct a bombing run. The pilots of the 2 J-22s spotted the F-16s above them and after their attack, they left the area in low-level flight towards Croatia, where the U.S. jets could not follow; one of these[citation needed] later crashed due to lack of fuel. Meanwhile, the rest of the group was engaged and attacked, first by 2 USAF F-16Cs, which scored three kills. The remaining J-21 was taken out by a different pair of USAF F-16Cs. Of the six Yugoslavian jets engaged, four were shot down (one by AMRAAM and the others by Sidewinders)
