This girl says thank you!
Mmmm… ‘splodey….
Now I feel like eating BBQ.
Hm.
Biggest thing wrong with that video was the lack of evident enemy KIA’s. But then I’m not a girl, so I guess I wasn’t the target audience anyway. 😀
Uh, the body of the jihadi flopping to the ground after a short flight was pretty good evidence…
Huh. Must have missed that … have to give it another watch …
Horrible technique, they are lucky it actually hit. Looks like a really old tape as they were in a hover when they shot. We generally don’t do that too much anymore.
I’m guessing they abandoned the hover technique because of the thermal bloom causing the TADS to lose lock. Just a guess.
Sploady + Rough Language = Nice Combat Combo
Kbyethanx.
The FLIR lock-on is called Image Auto Track (IAT), it lost lock when the missle came into it’s field of regard. That’s why you don’t fire a missile while using IAT.
We don’t generally hover to engage anymore because that tend to get you shot up by the bad guys who tend to pop up when we are around.
Ah, thanks for the insight.
