thanks sagaciousscorpio, there is an old saying "Doers are the best Knowers"
you'd be quite surprised at what else i know, but unfortunately, a few days back when i said that i have sensitive knowledge of mr Nawaz Sharif's involvement in bill clinton's war against afghanistan, yesterday, i was served a gag order by my higher ups that effectively prohibits me to disclose his filthy past and how close he really is to america.
either way, i will continue to try and provide comments on how our army is fighting the taliban.

hmm, lets disect this:
0:55-- That the footage taken from pakistani drones (jasoos), usually high flying and providing 'situational awareness" to ground commanders.
1:08-- Again, surveillange footage from drone. if u notice the smoke trailing out of the chopper, that is the 20mm cannon being fired, its called a strafing run, and is used to soften entrenched targets.The gun is accurate enough to target individual truck tires with least collateral damage to the passengers, ofcourse, if Armor piercing rounds or Armor Piercing Incendiary (API) then a concentrated 8 round burst is sufficient for a tank.
1:47--Thats unguided fragmentation rockets being fired.
1:54--Thats the star of the footage, what u see here is the locally made "Baktar Shikan" anti-tank missile being fired. these babies are laser guided that is, the weapon systems officer points the laser at the target and fires the missile, the missile then follows the Aim Point (the point where the laser is hitting). As you can see, it is so accurate that it went through a window and then blast that ripped out the roof is a tell-tale sign of presence of explosives or booby traps in the house. If you notice, the white hut on the side remained un-damaged.
2:32--The guy with the helmet is probably the squad leader, he's carrying an ak-74 with a modified Laser sight and illuminator, that thing sticking out of his helmet is a night vision reciever.
btw,my zodiac is scorpio too.
