Gerasimenko?

I issued the order to destroy the target

Are there nav lights or not?

Gerasimenko!

Comrade general, I still do not understand

I am asking, well, ask the pilot, does the target have nav lights or not?

RCA

Well, what has RCA got to do with it?

Ask whether or not the target has nav lights

Gerasimenko

Yes

Well, what are you doing, he is on channel 3, ask the pilot from the command post. Does the target have nav lights or not?

There are nav lights? Who said [so]?

There are nav lights, Comrade General

There are nav lights?

Yes, sir

Flash the interceptor's lights to it, interrogate, interrogate (IFF), flash navigation lights as a warning signal. Does it answer or not?

Well, tell Osipovich to flash his nav lights, order him to flash his nav lights
