All Activity

Good video of the F-15E crew that bailed out over Libya in 2011 and what happened after they returned to friendly control; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZvhhTpNFqU Excellent channel, BTW, if you like aviation.

What I am told is they landed two MC-130Js with 2 X Little Birds each. Both MC-130Js got their nose wheels stuck in the sand. The little birds launched and one picked up the WSO. At the FARP they tried unsuccessfully to get the MC-130J's "unstuck" so they called in other assets from a supporting agency to pick up everyone. 3 X other smaller platforms came in and picked everyone up. USAF aircraft then bombed the 2 X MC-130J's and 4 x Little birds. We lost a couple of Reapers as well. True team effort.

Wasn't this the whole point of the Osprey?

Smelled a little like "Eagle Claw."

Probably. I'm of the impression that it's a foregone conclusion, all indications from big blue pointed (over the last 5-6 years) in that direction. This could very well be the thing to re-light the fire. Fucking good work everyone. TOML

Not the first time the Iranian desert ate an American C-130. SOF played a front row seat, i wonder if this is going to stoke the fire in the battle to move CSAR to AFSOC.

Didn't have desert tires

Glad they're out safe and uninjured. Osint reports lost 2 herks to the mission. Seems herks are allergic to Iran.

Incredible

Same pilot, great American.

WSJ confirmed. Praise God and get that dude/dudette a beer.🍻

I've seen that all day. I'm waiting until its official. Edit. Al Jazera is now confirming it though

The got him 🇺🇸 To the CSAR community 🍻 TOML!

And his own Dos Gringos song

Godspeed to all in harms way tonight. Lots of reports about the Iranians sending forces to disrupt and they got pummeled.

Dude needs to be given medals and a retirement.

No fucking way. If true, it’s time for that guy to hang up the harness and find a way into some sort of ground combat branch since that’s clearly where Murphy wants him.

Same WSO was also on one of the -15Es who were shot down by that Kuwaiti F-18 last month.

I really want this outcome. So much. And I hope he can guest star at SERE with the story. Until then, the media can fuck off with their reporting. I was caught yelling at the computer when reporters were sharing that we had an MIA. That should not be in the news at all as all it does is tell Iran to hunt harder. WHAT THE FUCK!!

What about someone who Bro rages workout selfies? Asking for Pete (or RFK).

No way to know if true yet, but perhaps some hope for the missing F-15 crewmember.

Me lol, 3rd times the charm !

Well the bar was set pretty low with Noem. At a baseline anyone who gets addicted to plastic surgery probably shouldn't be running a federal organization.
