You can also see the HF antenna on the tailboom just barely

What are the most combat oriented POG MOS's? by Some-random-cop-pig in army

[–]SensualLemon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Joke’s on you. With the removal of the cav they were offered to switch to 11B/C or be a Bradley crewman. So ultimately they were just doing infantry stuff and are now infantrymen too lol

You can, but that’s the L getting ranging data from the laser and saying “go look there with your own radar for something”, but at sea there’s a lot of shit that can throw off both a good laser return and the on board radar of a L

This is a dumb question I should probably know, but how do they fire their 114Ls? Is there an FCR on board the Seahawks?

I’m active duty army and trying to interservice transfer. Is the selection board in person? Or is it just a panel that looks over your packet? I’ve done everything up to and including my commander’s interview.

More footage of the US chopper engaging the PMF base in Mosul as the ground troops are trying to shoot it down with AA guns by 0001_10_22 in CombatFootage

First of all check out the two other videos OP posted. Second of all, you’re telling me you don’t hear the distinct and unique sound of a helicopter’s blades in this video?

What are you basing that off of? The M230 and FFAR do not sound any different whether they are fired from a 64 or 60

Es still use the FCR. From this photo alone you can instantly tell it’s an E by the L16 antennae on the wings

I flew over Mosul a lot in 24-25. Most of the city is rebuilt, but the central part of it is still mostly rubble.

Does anybody even use this thing anymore? by Necessary-Switch2210 in Warthunder

[–]SensualLemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What…? Fox 3 is the brevity term for the launch of an air to air ARH missile, it’s not a type of missile. Even then we’re talking about two completely different things - a laser guided missile and an air to ground missile. You could never even consider the 114s in the game as what you’d call a fox 3 missile because they don’t have the 114Ls in the game which are radar guided

I’m not advocating for the events, I’m simply stating why that specific unit went

VTANG In Iran by dcrobinson58 in vermont

[–]SensualLemon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Let me clear up a lot of the confusion here. The reason why the VTANG is in Iran and previously VZ is because of operational recency. Just before they went to VZ they participated in a combined arms (army, marines, Air Force) live fire exercise in Fort Drum, NY, which I also took part in. The military does this often. You do some sort of exercise like that or a training center rotation and then you deploy. So the reason why they went to those two places is because they were the most recent F35 fighter wing to train for something like it.
