A good example showing how our soldiers (in this case UK soldiers) will be driving down the road on a routine patrol and the next second everything goes to hell.

So soldiers basically use a laser pointer and a helicopter flies by and destroys it?

Actually it\'s a big gunship, a heli couldn\'t carry and fire off all that heavy munition.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC-130

Quote
These heavily armed aircraft incorporate side-firing weapons integrated with sophisticated sensor, navigation and fire control systems to provide targeted firepower or area saturation whilst spending long periods flying over their target area, at night and in adverse weather. The sensor suite consists of a television sensor, infrared sensor, and radar. These sensors allow the gunship to visually or electronically identify friendly ground forces and targets in most conditions. The AC-130U employs synthetic aperture radar for long-range target detection and identification. The gunship\'s navigational devices include the inertial navigation systems and global positioning system. The AC-130U employs technologies developed in the 1990s and can attack two targets simultaneously. It also has twice the munitions capacity of the AC-130H.
