    10 Percent True #19 P2: "Stinger" F-15E Fighter Pilot - Syria & Iraq
    Part 2 of my interview with "Stinger", a current operational F-15E pilot (and previously, WSO) about his 2017 deployment to Iraq and Syria.
    He was in the jet that downed one of the two Iranian drones shot down during that tour and recounts his experiences duelling Russian Flankers and 'kneecapping' the ISIS HQ in Raqqa.
    It's a fascinating interview that lifts the lid on what really happened between Russia and the US over Syria...

    “Bitch be cool” - we laugh because it’s funny, we laugh because it’s true. Serious professionalism mandatory. Great interview as always Steve, thanks Stinger for amazing insights to the complexities of modern conflicts.

    Fascinating insight. Complex RoE. Dynamic multi-Actor scenarios. Deescalation to avoid unintended consequences. Ad hoc Tactical innovation. What a professional. Thank you for such a candid video. Bravo Zulu

    Ha Herding cats is putting it mildly. Best interview I have heard in a very Long time. Well done, interesting to hear the Handover to follow on units dramas. Same stuff with us ODA's, hand overs always hit or miss for us too. Should be a building block going forward but heck sometimes it was constant reinventing the wheel and or starting from day 0 instead of day 260

    Love all of these interviews, SO we’ll done. This is one of my favorites. The details Stinger went into about weaponeering and the triple stack to flatten a building were fantastic! I really appreciated his well considered thoughts on the F15ex too. Great Stuff!!

    Thank you for doing these interviews and help keeping me sane during my time in self isolation in this pandemic. Love hearing all of these stories. Would love to hear from a F-15EX Pilot and hear their thoughts on the new variant of the glorious Eagle.

    Amazing interview. Does anyone know if the JTAC‘s talked about are US personell or if it’s SDF soldiers they are communicating with?

    Quick question - when it comes to bomb fusing and delays tactic wise do the USAF airmen conference with the weapon builders on potential ways that the weapon system can be used for these scenarios?
