Copters need permission from higher up command. Waste of time but the way it is. Pisses me off. These guys are professionals and no wish to kill innocents but enemies.

The restraints they work under seem draconian, but unfortunately war is now so subject to scrutiny the shooting is verified 100$ before hand so no adverse examples can be gained by the enemy, who use such things to hurt allied efforts. Yeah it is very frustrating for the likes of us watching, but they are getting the job done, and done very very well. The discipline and restraint is herculean and have no fear, the bad guys get smoked every time. I really like the uncut clips with the comms between all parties involved, gives it a raw gritty feel no media outlet could ever hope to broadcast. As long as our people stay safe, and then come home in one piece, holding fire in a 9 minute clip is a small price to pay.

You dont want the pilot smoking some lady in a burhka, or killing kids. It still happens but better to err on the side of caution

Stone-cold professionals in that cockpit. Sounds like things were pretty busy for the good guys. Thanks!

Funny to me when assholes lay down on the side of a hill motionless! I don't think there were any in this vid. I was reminded of that when the first truck with the heavy gun was shooting about 10 seconds behind the chopper.
