If you are looking at the same frames as we are I think you are either a psycic medium or very imaginative. I only see the final seconds of a kill, nothing of what happened before or after.

The only hint that the Mustangs did not attack first is the fact that they are still carrying their drop tanks.

However, since we all know how Tommy McGuire came to his end, that is not certain proof that these Mustangs did not attack prior to being attacked as in illustrated by these final seconds of air combat.

Either you are basing your assumption on other material (or more footage), or you are letting your judgement be clouded by your sentiment - you've lost objectivity.
