Someone actually shoots back and these clowns start crying like little babies lmao
We're also supposed to believe they can easily crush Russia and China if they wanted.
All I can say to that is "good luck" lol
They forgot they weren't fighting poor civilians or guerilla fighters, but an experienced fighting force with a little bit of firepower on their end too.
"Bully returns home, tells mom it was traumatizing when victim fought back."
Last time US fighter pilots had to deal with people firing anti aircraft missiles at them in volume was during the opening days of the first gulf war.
Anyone remember the flight recorder video from an F16 over Baghdad being chased by six surface to air missiles? During the chase sustained an average of 3.6G with peak acceleration at points reaching 6.4G. Does seem like the stuff of nightmares.
my god that was intense. which is weird since I was hoping for a different ending.
I mean.... if you're going to stick your dick in a hornets nest.... maybe you deserve some nightmares and trauma.
Anyone that played a modern combat flight sim knows it's basically a horror game.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Get traumatized idiots
I guess they didn't expect them to fight back.
Did we ever find out if Ansarallah actually hit the carrier like they claimed?
No, and we probably never will for sure, but it ran away and really that's embarrassing enough.
I like to watch the TV series "Mayday: Air Crash Investigations". The US dubs their version though, and I got curious one day. I watched the original and the US dub side by side of S3E06 "Mistaken Identity", which was about the time that a US Aegis Cruiser shot down an Iranian passenger jet in the Persian Gulf. As I suspected, the US version was censored.
It was very interesting which bits were censored. It was fairly obvious that they would want to cut any parts that humanised the Iranians. To my surprise, they didn't cut the bits where the crew was praised for their actions. But the most interesting bit for me was that they cut a couple of interviews with the crew of the cruiser, where they talked about how terrified they were of the plane.
They absolutely do not want you to know that their great invincible navy spent half their time peeing in their pants when an airliner flew overhead.
