Werden die
1.500 Soldaten mit den
"Kampfflugzeugen" ins Einsatzgebiet transportiert und dort als
Bomben abgeworfen, was freilich ganz schnell gehen muß, da
Kampfflugzeuge in der Regel ja wahnsinnig schnell durch die Luft düsen, oder können die etwa neuerdings einfach mal ein paar Minuten in der
Luft auf der Stelle schweben, um die
Truppen abzusetzen? Was meldet
Reuters in
englischer Sprache?
[Edit]
Ich weiß es:
Zitat:
Announced with media fanfare just hours after Iraq's parliament held a brief first meeting that did nothing to end a political stalemate over forming a government, the U.S. military said 50 aircraft were taking part in the raids north of Baghdad.
The U.S. military released to the media photographs of troop-carrying Black Hawk helicopters lined up in a row for the offensive. There were no pictures of warplanes.
A defense official at the Pentagon, who asked not to be named said it was a relatively large, but sought to downplay the scale of the operation. "It's not precision bombs and things like that," the official said.
Another official said it was "predominantly" a helicopter operation that involved UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters and other aircraft and the insertion of ground forces.
