This was sent from the USS John C. Stennis. The aviator was the strike
element lead on this attack and received these pictures as a "thank you"
from the forward air controllers on the ground. It is an example of a
joint, combined arms operation. A Taliban/ al-Qaida armored vehicle
(ex-Russian BMP) with troops embarked and riding on top is targeted by
forward air controllers (FAC's) of the US Army, 4th Special Operations
Group. A flight of two Navy F-14 Tomcats are called in by the Army FAC's
and strike the vehicle nearly simultaneously with GBU-16 laser guided bombs.
As a bonus, there is a nice secondary explosion in the middle of the road,
towards the end of the set.
