Those MRAPs sure did go "BOOM!!!" real good.  ISIS tactics an doctrine must have them using MRAPs in place of amberlampses for ammo transport.

Going by the flight time of the missile and the angle the tracers were coming down from.. it was far.  Probably in the 1000m ballpark.  I could be off, since I haven't been to a range that featured missles and long range MGs in several years now.

Sure you noticed some of the tracer burnout as well...that should be a pretty good indicator.

They are not, Iraq purchased ILAVs from Force a Protection Inc. they are a lighter version of the Cougar MRAP that coalition forces use. Much like their Abrams and ASVs, the Iraqis bought these vehicles.

The Milan does 200m/s, and the far MRAP shot took about 7s.

Also, I think you can see a Milan fall shot at 2:00.

Sounds like an American filmed video.

No constant mumbled snackbar chanting.
Several times cheers instead of snack bar when a hit.
Fairly controlled shooting.
No super annoying screeching song in background.

Its nice to see our cultural has started to influence the Kurds.

You missed notes on the celebratory fire.  At the end it was basically a World Cup cheer with AK ammo.

Aside from the awesome factor of this video those were actually very well coordinated ambushes.  There were very good crossing fields of fire set up to hit the isis guys as soon as they came over the horizon of those hills.  Also you could hear the increase in small arms the minute the vehicle was disabled in anticipation of isis personnel exciting armor.

Very well done
