Uhmm...once again, reporters show their lack of military hardware, as do most of the young "I still live in my parent's basement" Diggers. RPGs are unguided. They are called Rocket Propelled Grenades for a reason, they're mainly anti armor and are hardly good for fast moving target. Even a C130 would be a challenge to hit. I'm not saying the pilots weren't skilled, but to say that the RPGs were decoyed by the flares is just plain wrong.

So as long as someone disagrees with you it's acceptable to shoot them out of the sky?
