Gork@sopuli.xyzto World News@lemmy.ml•It's Official: US Boots-On-Ground Deep Inside Iran Amidst Another Day of Humiliating Losses33·4 days agoThis speaks to a more general problem I’m having following this war: struggling to find actual factual reports from what’s happening.
Between Trump’s unhinged tweets and Hegseth’s bloodthirsty machismo, trying to get anything from the US is like talking to a bucket.
Edit: I was thinking about the C-130 and it’s role in this based on the article. It is technically possible to perform an extraction with such an aircraft with the Cold War era CIA Fulton STARS “Skyhook” device, you might remember it from a scene in The Dark Knight when Batman exfils someone quickly from a building. A balloon is sent up and the C-130 grabs it, along with whoever is attached to it.
I don’t think this is likely because the downed pilot would have to have such a system ready to go (unlikely if you’re downed from another plane), a balloon would be a giant “here I am” to the Iranians searching for him, and the timing and execution would need to be precise and flawless. And if it happened, no doubt it would be reported on by someone, somewhere.
Why will they not come to my aid after I’ve publicly bashed them a dozen times?
