I agree with you ... I want to see proof and I won’t believe he is dead until we see some....what was this crap explanation about we had to bury him at sea in a hurry so his followers couldn’t build a shrine... and oh he was so important we had to give him a full Muslim burial ceremony... !!!???

Until I see a VERIFIED photo of that dead mf’er I am going under the assumption that either they shot the wrong guy or HE’S NOT DEAD.

Or he died a long time ago and they are not releasing photos because there are none.

I saw the video a couple of weeks back, for the first time, of the politician in the 70’s or 80’s that killed himself in front of reporters at a press conference. Not to be too graphic, but it was flowing out like a faucet.

The chopper was a higly modified Blackhawk with stealth features. I am sure the thing was rigged with a lot of charges so they could completely destroy it if it crashed. But they left the empennage intact, unfortunately.

"MH-60 PaveHawk."

That was most certainly NOT a Pavehawk. I've seen a lot of those.

That thing looks closer to a cross between a Hollywood Spaceship, F-117 and a Huey.

Notice the enormous disk beneath the rotor. The OBVIOUSLY stealth frame/materials and very limited glass up front. Short blades (spinning FAST, whirring not "chopping").

Nope. This is a BRAND NEW AIRCRAFT to the public eye and now Pakistan, and by extension China have this bird.

I would rather let OBL live and keep this bird a secret.

With 200 of those a fighting Regiment could sure sneak up on you quick. Could probably seize all but the top 25 cities in the world within an hour...all the critical parts anyway. Then you could fly in a couple of parachute brigades and have it for sure.

This bird is a big deal.

He was hit on the bridge of the nose, just to the left of his left eye. One 5.56mm hole and two trickles of blood. He caught one in his chinny chin chin too. My favorite kind of terrorists... DEAD TERORISTS. I am so UNpc.

Too small for a Blackhawk. Completely different skin throughout.

Both blades are DEFINITELY new...nothing else like them. Highly muffled exhaust.

Very small glass up front and no rough edges.

This is a new aircraft from the ground up.

No, I think it’s a variant of the Pave Hawk.

Silent Hawk comes to mind, and certainly not BRAND NEW.
The disk on the rotor is to protect the hardware from munitions hits. That’s what brought down one or both helos downed in Somalia in 1993. You don’t get radar stealth be shielding the rotor hubs alone.

LOL.
Having spent considerable time in Blackhawks, I don’t think 13 soldiers x 200 helos is capable of taking a small city, let alone anything under the top 25.

But, maybe MegaForce could do it?

Did you look at the very first picture from the source article of this thread? That is no Pavehawk.

It's almost flimsy like a kite. Far too small to be of the same 69 class. See how SHORT the blades are?

I was slightly more taken aback by a linked article from that page:

Crown demands 25 years for double child killer

And they're demanding at least 14 years before he can get parole! WOW!

Saw those pictures and others.
The base structure of the tail assembly is similar to the UH-60 series, with modifications of course.

Google “Silent Hawk”.

Like our great President, in my world, blood is the color... I say it is!

Guess than means Case Closed... if 'Shades' says it's so!
