    Getting back to the OP. Fantastic photos. Thanks for posting and Fair play to that guy for going there, taking the pics and surviving..

    I always wonder what pictures are out there still to come to light from the people that served in WW2,Vietnam, Lebanon, Iraq etc.

    Recently saw pics from pre war Nazi germany re-coloured. Epic.

    I always find it both absolutely fascinating and very strange at the same time to see photos from WW2 in colour.

    The 21st Century equivalent!!!

    Protestors in Tahrir Square, Cairo shining lasers at an Egyptian Air Force AH-64.

    They did the same to an Mi-8/17 Hip over the weekend.

    Nice photographs in the OP. Sniper had an AK-47, must have been there purely to harass the enemy or something. Seems he did his job.

    I strongly doubt the lasers would have much of an effect on the TADS or the pilot's ability to fly.

    Agreed, but the Ugly's laser could have really upset someones day on the ground . Awesome piece of machinery.
