In 1981, the Libyan government claimed ownership of the Gulf of Sidra in the Mediterranean Sea. U.S. President Reagan ordered the U.S. Navy to conduct freedom of navigation missions in the Gulf of Sidra. On August 19, a clash of fighter jets between the two sides broke out, culminating in the shooting down of two Libyan Air Force su22 fighter jets by U.S. Navy F14 fighter jets, which was the Gulf of Sidra incident.
This incident was borrowed from the famous movie topgun, which became a real-world topgun battle.
