Rather than conducting an airborne assault by a mass
parachute drop requiring large numbers of aircraft flying in close
formation at low levels, the use of precision parachutes by small teams
and for re-supply allow the use of fewer aircraft, spaced well apart and
flying out of reach of antiaircraft fire. The exercise kicked off
with an airborne assault by the brigade headquarters and 1-321 FA into
Fort Bliss, dropping two M198 howitzers and 120 paratroopers. The airborne assault on the airstrip southwest of Kandahar by the
Rangers was filmed by a combat camera team. |
