Combat videos from Iraq, Apache helicopters.

About 13 min. long but pretty intense. Hellfires hitting vehicles, totally obliterating them. Nowhere for the enemy to hide. In one scenario, they hit a truck occupants and one of them pulled a weapon and starting firing back. Wrong move!  In another they wiped out some guys carrying what appears to be a mortar tube which wasn't destroyed when they hit the troops carrying it. So, they went back and blew it up as well. The first part has Islam music in the background, later it's good old U.S. rock.

The entire thing is rather moving, I get a bit emotional thinking of what these guys are able to accomplish in the dark of night. My hat is off to all of them.

Have watched them in action first hand. Bad Ass.  But had one confused pilot fire on two of our vehicles with Hell fire missiles during Desert Storm.    Made a Bradly  just a foot tall.

Lot of respect for the folks flying the Apache...my wife is an engineer for Boeing, the manufacturer for them. SHe is new to Mesa where they are built. Did 5 years in Philly when she was on the CH-47 andd V-22 programs

There is one video in there that a sniper gets a portion of his head blown off. You see it with hair go flying when he gets hit by the bullet and then he just slumps down with the rpg on his shoulder. It kind of reminded me of the Kennedy assassination when you see him get hit in the head with a bullet. Not really graphic except for that one moment you see the skull cap and hair and blood spatter. I was surprised there wasn't more blood flowing.

Always impressive when you combine technology, a skilled pilot and a brave heart.   The combination can and does have a devastating effect.
