🇺🇸⚔️🇻🇪 Launch of a surface-to-air missile from a 9K338 Igla-S portable air defense system (MANPAD) against a helicopter belonging to the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Night Stalkers) during the attacks on the Fuerte Tiuna military complex, south of Caracas, Venezuela, during the capture of Nicolás Maduro.
The FANB did attempt to shoot down some U.S. helicopters; however, it should be remembered that U.S. electronic warfare was extremely powerful. That part of the combat is not seen—nor can it be seen—but its impact is decisive. General Dan Caine himself confirmed that aircraft specialized in electronic warfare were deployed during the operation.
