America sent its F-18 (which looks like MIG-29) to stage this "event". Besides, US has Russian MIGs, so it doesn't have to use its F-18 jets.

Of course!
America had been playing these sort of tricks with other countries for ages.
Do you know WHY Viet-Nam war started?


Russia says it was a well-organized provocation. Number of countries still have Russian MIGs, and USA is one of those countries.
Besides, it's not even clear from that video what kind of jet it was, it could be an F-18.

Russian video - RussiaToday : News : Georgia behind Abkhazia tensions: Putin

Are there any experts here who can tell what jet it is on the video?


MIG-29



F-18
