Yeah, I've seen that before. I think it was on a fox special or something.
I'm pretty convinced it's fake.
It's a super-imposed image over stock flight footage.
What gives it away is basically how it moves in sync with the camera ever so slightly against the frame of reference clouds in the background when the shot encounters subtle bumps and jerks.
it looks like who-ever imposed this image over the original tried hard to minimize this flaw, but if you look closely and play it slowly you will notice it.
If you talk to any Hollywood video effects technician, this is one of the hardest video flaws to overcome when your original footage is all green screen, and you're trying to super-impose your subject image over a generated 3-d landscape in the background. You get a general shifting of your subject image against the background, where if all things are filmed "live" this does not happen.
To make this anomaly more obvious, think of it this way: If you have a spec of dirt on your lens and you are filming clouds, and you start to jerk your camera lens around, you'll notice the spec of dirt moves with the angle of the camera lens, instead of staying stationary with the background.
If something was truly far away in the background near the clouds, and you started moving the camera around, the object should appear to stay consistent with clouds, and not your camera lens.

I hate Hoaxers. They muddy the watter so much.If they spent half the time analyzing real videos/photos they would actually be contributing to something worthwhile.

Or there may not be anything to contribute to at all...just saying.

I mean as in to spend their time validating photos instead of making fake ones.

This video has been talked about before...
..the main flaw in this video is that it probably isn't russian. The video clips in the beggining show migs, yet the the actuall cockpit footage shows the back of an ACES II ejection seat which are not used in MIGs, but used in F-16's and F-15's, A-10's, B-1B's, T-46's, B-2's, and the F-22 Raptor.
So this video has to be a hoax, because they would at least get the info right if it wasn't.
