Narrative:

On approach to corpus, a navy trainer also on approach, but to navy corpus, was told to stay above and behind our aircraft. He called us in sight on UHF but we could not see him because of the sun. He flew directly over us at less than 200 ft resulting in our TCASII RA 'descend now.' we descended rather abruptly about 200-300 ft. I told approach 'we have an RA, we're going down.' they immediately cleared us visual. These low time navy instructors need to be told if they fly that close it will result in an RA and we must take action. Someone in the cabin could very easily be injured. I know it's fun to roll in on another guy but that was before TCASII!

Title: ACR ON APCH HAS NMAC WITH MTR ON APCH WITH TFC IN SIGHT.

Narrative: ON APCH TO CORPUS, A NAVY TRAINER ALSO ON APCH, BUT TO NAVY CORPUS, WAS TOLD TO STAY ABOVE AND BEHIND OUR ACFT. HE CALLED US IN SIGHT ON UHF BUT WE COULD NOT SEE HIM BECAUSE OF THE SUN. HE FLEW DIRECTLY OVER US AT LESS THAN 200 FT RESULTING IN OUR TCASII RA 'DSND NOW.' WE DSNDED RATHER ABRUPTLY ABOUT 200-300 FT. I TOLD APCH 'WE HAVE AN RA, WE'RE GOING DOWN.' THEY IMMEDIATELY CLRED US VISUAL. THESE LOW TIME NAVY INSTRUCTORS NEED TO BE TOLD IF THEY FLY THAT CLOSE IT WILL RESULT IN AN RA AND WE MUST TAKE ACTION. SOMEONE IN THE CABIN COULD VERY EASILY BE INJURED. I KNOW IT'S FUN TO ROLL IN ON ANOTHER GUY BUT THAT WAS BEFORE TCASII!
