Now the antifa kooks have decided to begin CWII?

I hope they catch the perps and make a public spectacle out of them.

This was likely done with a scoped rifle, properly sighted in.

Not many people know how to judge aerial range, so the perps have skills. Shouldn’t be too hard to find these traitors.

Maybe, but the UH-1N models first flew in 1969. The civilian equivalent of the N’s was the Twin Huey. The USAF did use them in the last two years of the Vietnam war, but the N’s were mostly used by SAC for missile crews. They’re STILL using them.

Is an older, earlier model engine of the UH-1 compatible with the newer N models?

I don’t know. I was just a comms guy. You were the mechanic.
