Just shows it can be done
Congratulations,good to know, very much professionals.
Quality
Hoofing!!
What a joke!!
Why?
The RAF are the best at precision. Even the USAF acknowledge this.
The RAF is only second to the IDF. The IDF air force personnel are the most skilled of all air force in terms of precision and Dog fight on air.

The French are doing a better job but still well done for the token British support

What they don’t tell you http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/isis-air-strikes-civilian-death-toll-from-western-bombing-set-to-reach-1000-within-days-a6914601.html

Sorry but how can you accurately measure that?
There are many sources https://airwars.org/civcas-2016/
‘Airwars’ isn’t going to be biased
But I guess it justifies doing nothing ??
Putin kills 1,000 civilians for every ISIS.
Yes but the Russian people don’t know that so sssh!
I think it’s bit of exaggeration when they say no civilian I mean I agree they are great at precision strike but does that means they have preprogrammed even bomb splinters to differentiate between isis and civilians???
Secondly who will verify the claim there’s no way to go into that area and verify the claims
>no civilians
I remember the gulf war. The news constantly told us how amazing the patriot missiles were. The truth was that most of them missed.
So what are you trying to say?
Technology has come so far they can’t even be compare to the crap they had in the Gulf War.
I’m not saying this post is a lie. I’m just saying it seems too good to be true. Not 1 civilian killed.
We have had 15 years of practice. We are getting good.
‘Truth’
Plus Tomahawks are $80 million each. But of a hefty price tag…
….or, at the risk of using facts, about $1.1-1.5m, http://www.defenseindustrydaily.com/block-iv-xgm-109-tomahawk-chopped-07423/
Its the new tiny warheads that help avoid collateral damage. unlike the US who just pack as much explosives in their Warheads as possible.
Patriot wasn’t “smart” and was Surface to Air.
Sigh
All this does is give the general public an unrealistic expectation that there will never be any civilian or friendly casualties. Collateral damage should be minimised but it cannot be avoided altogether. Great that we’ve been able to do it. But it shouldn’t be considered as the norm.
Love to one Angry like ?
A job well done .
So what you trying to say then?
farce
Jake Brown says it on fb so its true
That’s pretty damn impressive.
Vladimir Putin did better in just one day ,, ffsake ,,
Because we are not targeting built up areas we are hitting oil fields and Isis protected projects but wouldn’t put it passed Isis to use civilians as Shields so I think in the long run it will come out that some civilians have died sadly but war is hell fact!
But the Russians killed tens of thousands of them (ISIS)…
Jolly good.
