Hello to everyone...

I think this question is easily answered by looking to simple laws of physics. The bullets fired from a plane have a RELATIVE speed and direction to the same plane they were fired from(say M3.1 somebody mentioned), and relative speed and direction to the ground or some non-moving observer(add the speed of the plane they were fired from, for example M2.0 for the F-22). So, the only way for a plane to catch bullets it fired would be if those bullets would somehow stop in midair or would start accelerating in the opposite direction.
Atleast I think that would be the wright question.
