Ever since the '91 Gulf War my dad's told me about this video he saw (during one of the Schwartzkopf "you gotta see this" press conferences) of a laser guided bomb "shooting down" an Iraqi helicopter... I have never seen it... We were watching the Wings channel this weekend and saw some great A-10 footage and it jostled his memory of it... And I want to see it ; )

Does this ring a bell for anyone? I attempted a lame Google search on it and didn't get anything useful...

TIA,
jim

During the Gulf War, our pilots would bring back footage taped from their missiles.
Not sure how public those videos were at the time, but I remember seeing a guy standing in
a window as the missile approached the building he was in,  then of course the video went to snow.

I remember seeing those laser guided missiles alot on TV back then. I'm sure someone here has got to have that footage...
