[ackack]

Nope but it is similar, i have about 9 videos from the day, some obviously better than others,

I saw a flashbox on Bebo similiar to what youre talking about, shows the barrel tracking the PC-9..same video?

[ackack]

I'll try to get it up on youtube, just to let you know, it's taken from a gun position not the radar

[armedboarder]

Wouldnt mind seein that video too

[ackack]

It is if you hold a camera in front of the screen, i have some videos one of the lads took i'll put them up somewhere if i can figure out how.

Hi armed boarder. I believe the Flycatcher system incorporates a video camera which allows the operator to have a video image of the selected target during engagement. Is it recordable? Do you have any recorded images of the recent exercise?

[armedboarder]

Haulbowline and surrounding harbour area secure.

Haulbowline and the surrounding harbour area was subjected to attack by air recently. (Exersise). Pilatus and Allouette supplied by Air Corps. Huge well done to the Air Defnce batteries on a textbook deployment and defence of Cork harbours Military, utility and industrial installations. A fine example of improvisation, Adaptation, professionalism and Co-Operation of a large mix of units both PDF and Army Reserve.

Special note for Command & Control, Admin and Logs.

Reserve lead the way............ A teamwork revolution.

Ill get a copy of them off the unit and post the best ones here..some great aerial snaps showing the RBS 70's and the Giraffe radar.

[McCarthy]

Yaaahr! NS were very obliging, good food and a tour of the Eithne. Minimum of bs, just got the job done and got out again fast. A good experience for the gunners regards observation and procedure while the higher-ups played their radar games. You just better know your port and starboard while looking for the tea-urn....

It wasnt.
It was on an Air Defence mount similiar to this one..

it looks like its on the fence because its close to it.

[mutter nutter]

can I ask, why was the GPMG mounted onto the fence?

[ackack]

Great shots of the GPMG but the rest of them look very familiar.
