sources put the actual al-qaeda death figures between 18-73

Pray an act of perfect contrition everyday

@@REIDAE 18... 73... 100... All that matters is every single one of those boys return home safely. People get far too excited regarding numbers of enemy casualties resulting from an engagement. Getting in and out without pulling the trigger is often the most favourable victory in many deployments.

There's a reason they are the best.

I'm going to be that guy... technically being injured or wounded is considered a CASUALTY. No deaths however.

Only Range Rovers are really shit, defenders are pretty long living machines. 60% of expeditions was made with Land Rovers

Dias Akshaiyk if you want an expedition you choose a land cruiser. Land rovers are generally regarded as liabilities the world over

abingdonboy not the defender, lol.

Land Rovers are some of the most reliable vehicles in existence.

Alex, ........I bet the locals are still using it today, and every day !

True, I met NZ SAS VC recipient Willie Apiata in our local shops and he was quiet, calm and generous with his time for me. Legend.

Cool and hell never forget "legs" an sas operator who was only 5'3 - driven people come in all shapes and sizes 👍👍👍

They really are I met one guy down in south Florida at a judo training clinic, his judo was phenomenal and was a super nice guy the only way we found out was one of my coaches who trained with him back in the day knew of his back story

As a kid I remember coming home from school and watching live the SAS troops assaulting that embassy in London back in the early 80’s and thinking these are some bad dudes!

That may be so but the very nature of THIS 'tasking' was utter bullshit. S.A.S. felt like they were missing out on the action and were jonesing for a piece of the pie. So they dreamed up a 'daring' overly complicated cookie-cutter typical special operation raid with no significant military purpose. It was, as we used to say, just a 'fun jump'. HALO in to certify an LZ? Seriously? Why didn't they just chopper In??? I mean, how was the team gonna get OUT if the ground was soft and C-130's couldn't land? Then driving half way across the 'Stan in broad daylight? Did they seriously think their invisibility cloaks were going to protect them? Were they planning on using Jedi mind tricks to fool the locals into thinking they were a stampeding herd of goats? And they were seriously under-gunned for a raid. Very basic military principle is offensive force anywhere from three to ten times the strength of the entrenched defensive forces you attack, depending on the situation. Instead these jokers launched what was essentially a frontal assault and relied on Navy bombs to do the job for them by brute force while they took the credit and collected the medals. Not impressed. Saw way too much of this kind of jackassery in my day.

Yeah it is interesting why not at night. Maybe because it was bigger operation so it would be hard to manage at night?

@@jirihutecka9020 I think it was covered in the video, to do with the US air support only being available for a specific hour.

No casualties,this is some call of duty shit... mad respect to sas

Jiří Hutečka it was because the United States Airforce could only operate at that specific time

Not one L.E. SA80 in sight, why is that?

You should see the Rhodesian numbers, the Selous Scouts had no body armour and wore short shirts yet in one operation 100s of actual terrorists (not just people defending their country) were neutralised and only one Scout was injured.

I've seen the enemy casualties at 16-73... But the real reason they won was because nobody died and everyone returned.

@Road Dog begging?

@Road Dog damn it's almost as if fighting people that run away to the mountains and have little control over major cities is a waste of money /:

Yep

China has run away and hid in bat filled cave... When they hear sas are coming

They are, most modern special operations units are modelled after the SAS

Carmine British infantry are trained better than us marines royal Marines are like your navy seals

@@stevendutton3625 Royal Marines are like US Navy SEALs? That's a bit of a stretch. Royal Marines are respectable in their own right, but their function and training is different as they serve a different purpose. They are a larger force, and serve functions similar to the US Marines. Navy SEALs are equivalent to the SBS. They have a selection process, with a higher array of skills trainings. SEALs undergo 6 months of Basic Underwater Demolition training, then on to a year of SEAL Qualifications Training. Roughly 18 months of training before they are assigned a Team and undergo more training with that team.

Same here

It's interesting because even as a kid in Texas in the 90s and 2000s in the land of special ops worship of how bad ass we are I always recognized that the SAS and British forces were not to be f'd with.

God bless true Hero.

Same here my great grandad mike at the age of 60 one night stumbled into my grans bedroom drunk and started ranting to her about his time in the SAS and his time as part of SOE, my gran and grandad both knew he was in the army but they thought he was just drunk and didn't know what he was saying when it came to the SAS stuff, he died not long after and while digging through his stuff the found SAS badges and loads of other stuff still don't know what he did though. God bless your grandad what a hero

Thank you too All of them.

Well they did thats why they brought two extra vehicles just for logistics

Its definitely him for the incredible story telling.

I agree keep up the good work

its the r6 siege lore irl for me

Yes Thijs, it is a great book and thanks for your kind words regarding Britain's part in your liberation. If only the French were as grateful 😊😉

British*****🇬🇧

I Think you mean British and not English. But, if you do want to be specific, it was a Scotsman who founded the SAS, and one of his very first recruits and therefore a founding member was from Northern Ireland.

@@RobRoyBoaz yes , British, sorry for that . I think it was sterling who invented the sas no ?

@@thijst5571Archibald David Stirling, known as David Stirling. Crazy thing was that their very first mission was a disaster but they came right after that. 👍🏻

I agree yous stick by each other .but please stop boasting about ops all over the world explain this the afgan farmers beat yous both .the veitnamese farmers beat America .the IRA housing estate working class people beat the british . So why is the working class beating the so called super hero.s and there rich country's with all there super power weapons .I think the goverments and media should be trying to stop mentioning the exploits .as there became the laughing stock in the world now .ps pitty help us in the future

yeah so different from what we known for nowadays; Londons pakistani hate preachers.

Amen brother.

1982? When are so called ally told us to hand off our land and people to a military dictator, didn't have our backs then when we needed it most.

@@mrcaboosevg6089 they did have our backs actually they just did it in secret, they had just set up that government in Argentina so the soviets didn’t spread communism there and the dictator was going through the mud so he decided to invade the falklands to distract the people from their real problems which back fired on him and he was ousted. I don’t blame the usa for not wanting to back us up because they were trying to protect there national security but even then they still helped us so your argument means nothing.

Yes I suppose it’s good to have each other on side, But USA need stop starting meaningless wars for greed

I would give the SF Israelis a nod but I fully agree with you.

Yep AGREED the SBS were also pioneering a lot of stuff in the early days, that only the yanks think they are the greatest at... Pa haha.. Yanks are bollox..

Was also a good day for the Bombcat.

Plus smaller nations like Norway and new Zealand can buy the newest best equipment because it costs less to equip and train a smaller fighting force. Plus NZ kinda has the threat of China's pacific expansion to worry about.

@@justindunlap1235 Australia: forgotten

They've used pinkies for years and probably will continue to do so for the foreseeable future

Most Australian SF still use these rovers

these things aren't meant to be engaging in direct combat with other vehicle or anti-armor weapons. SF groups with these types of vehicles tend to prioritise speed over armor and firepower.

It’s all about mobility and firepower

So STUPID

Apart from the fact the Americans made our SF carry out the operation in broad daylight! That ain't good!

US intel had initially classified the target as low priority, plus almost all US forces in country were focused on supporting the Northern Alliance push on Kabul almost 1000km north.

LessCommonKnowledge good copy. makes sense given Nov 2001 was the infancy stage of the war, thus kinetic in less certainty

@Weißer Wolf they were successful seeing that the country fell in such a small amount of time considering how these are the same people that defeated the British and Soviets.

@@joeclaridy well that's not exactly true, I wouldn't say the country fell. The main government may of but not much more than that
