00:59 (Pilot): Can you zoom in a little bit man, let em take a look
00:59 (Sensor): at least 4 in the back of the pickup
00:59 (Pilot): what about the guy under the north arrow, does it look like he is hold'n something across his chest
00:59 (Sensor): yea it's kind of weird how they all have a cold spot on their chest
00:59 (Pilot): It's what they've been doing here lately, they wrap their *expletive* up in their man dresses so you can't PID it

00:45 (Pilot): Is that a *expletive* rifle?
00:45 (Sensor): Maybe just a warm spot from where he was sitting; can't really tell right now, but it does look like an object
00:45 (Pilot): I was hoping we could make a rifle out, never mind

1:05 (Sensor): that truck would make a beautiful target, ok that's a Chevy suburban
1:05 (Pilot): yeah, 
1:05 (Sensor): yeah

1:07 (MC): screener said at least one child near SUV
1:07 (Sensor): bull *expletive* …where!?
1:07 (Sensor): send me a *expletive* still, I don't think they have kids out at this hour, I know they're shady but come on.

1:07 (Pilot): at least one child… Really? Listing the MAM, uh, that means he's guilty
1:07 (Sensor): well maybe a teenager but I haven't seen anything that looked that short, granted they're all grouped up here, but.
1:07 (MC): They're reviewing
1:07 (Pilot): Yeah review that *expletive* …why didn't he say possible child, why are they so quick to call *expletive* kids but not to call *expletive* a rifle
1:08 (MC): two children were at the rear of the SUV… I haven't seen two children
1:08 (Sensor): The SUV just started,

01:47 (MC): Looks kinda like blankets, they were praying, they had like…
01:47 (Pilot): JAG25 KIRK97We get a good count, not yet?
01:47 (Sensor): They're praying, they are praying.
01:47 (Jag25): KIRK97 JAG25
01:48 (Pilot): JAG25 just want to confirm that you copied we have about 20 pax dismounted, they are
outside the trucks praying at this time and we're 3 ½ miles from the friendly location.
01:48 (Jag25): Roger good copy, from SOTF, we should have A‐10's and OH‐58's that are on standby…*garbled*
01:48 (Sensor): A‐10's as well, that's consistent with the vehicle capacity, 24‐25 people. This is definitely
it, this is their force. Praying? I mean seriously, that's what they do.
01:48 (MC): They're gonna do something nefarious.

01:50 (MC): Adolescent near the rear of the SUV.
01:50 (Sensor): Well, teenagers can fight.
01:50 (MC): Pick up a weapon and you're a combatant, it's how that works.

01:51 (Pilot): Will you tell the screener that we have passed that, so he doesn't freak out when the A‐10's strafe these guys or something. Just to keep him in the loop
01:51 (MC): Yeah, I let him know. Yeah, we get a good shot of that adolescent metadata off real quick, so I can tell…
01:51 (Sensor):He already got in the vehicle they said.
01:51 (MC): Yeah, as soon as they get out and we can see them again.
01:52 (Sensor): One guy still praying at the front of the truck.
01:52 (Pilot): JAG25 KIRK97 be advised, all pax are finishing up praying and rallying up near all 3 vehicles
at this time.
01:52 (Sensor): Oh sweet target. I'd try to go through the bed, put it right dead center of the bed.
01:53 (MC): Oh that'd be perfect.

02:41 (Sensor): Well sir, would you mind if I took a bathroom break real quick?
02:41 (Pilot): No, not at all, dude

03:17 (Unknown): what's the master plan fellas?
03:17 (Pilot): I don't know, hope we get to shoot the truck with all the dudes in it
03:17 (Sensor): yea

03:48 (Jag25): Kirk97, Good copy. If they close distance with our location at Kohd base, and at Ground force commander's orders we may have them come up, action those targets, and let you use your hellfire for clean‐up shot
03:49 (Pilot): Kirk97,Good copy on that, sounds good.

04:01 (Sensor): Sensor is in let the party begin.
04:01 (Pilot): What's up dude. Uh… We are just waiting man. Got one poppa sleeve on the left hand side set up to go off first cause that is all we got and their waiting for these guys to turn east and head towards the friendlies and their tracking these guys via ICOM chatter. It's basically it man.
04:01 (Sensor) :Tell you what they could have had a whole fleet of preds up here.
04:01 (Pilot): Oh dude.
04:01 (Sensor):
04:01 (Pilot): It would have been awesome.
04:02 (Sensor) : We were talking about it. I'm like, well, what if we just.
04:02 (Pilot) : Yeah.

04:06 (Pilot) : As far as a weapons attack brief goes, man, we're probably going to be chasing dudes scrambling in the open, uh, when it goes down, don't worry about any guidance from me or from JAGUAR, just follow what makes the most sense to you. Stay with whoever you think gives us the best chance to shoot um at them. And I'm with you on that. So, I'll brief you up on the launch profile, we'll hit a weapons attack brief when we know what we're going to shoot.

04:07 (Sensor) : We're gonna look like we're gonna be looking at 421.  
04:07 (Pilot) :  Yeah  
04:07 (Sensor) : For a hostile intent and... initial plan without seeing how they break up, follow the  largest group.  
04:07 (Pilot) : Yeah, sounds good.  When it all comes down, if everybody is running in their separate  direction, I don't care if you just follow one guy, you know like whatever you decide to do I'm with you on it.   


04:08 (MC)  : Yeah their trying to confirm which vehicle has the kids in it oh the adolescents in it. But JTAC already said that well they can grab a gun... so.  
04:09 (Sensor) :  Hey you know what?  Those mujadeen 13 years old.  
04:09 (Pilot) : Yeah, well that's what we were talking on this.  I was talking to the JTAC he said the exact same thing man.  Um they called them an adolescent. We called it you know... most likely double digits age range. And he was like that's old enough to be dangerous.  
04:09 (Sensor)  : Yep.  
04:09 (Pilot)  : Which is true.  
04:09 (MC) : I mean he was helping them load stuff earlier.  DGS called it out.  Helping load things into a  back of a truck.  When we first got on station.  That's when that AC130 was like please give me PID.  I  was like... we can't.

04:11 (Bam Bam41): Kirk97, Bam Bam four one has you loud and clear  
04:12 (Pilot): Ok, Bam Bam41, Kirk97 have you loud and clear as well. Understand you are tracking our  three vehicles, do you need a talk on or do you have them?  
04:12 (Bam Bam41): 41 has them just south side of the pass of the reported grid, white highland  followed by two SUVs  
04:12 (Pilot): Kirk97, that's a good copy. Those are your three vehicles be advised we have about  twenty-one MAMs, about three rifles so far PIDed in the group and ah these are your three 

04:13 (Pilot): It's a cool looking shot  
04:13 (Sensor): Oh, awesome 

04:13 (Bam Bam 41): (unintelligible) weapons and ICOM chatter with tactical maneuver. Break. Um,  understand we are clear to engage.  
04:13 (Pilot): Okay, he's clear to engage so he has Type Three. I'm going to spin our missiles up as well.

04:16 (Sensor): Roger. And, oh ... and there it goes! Have another guy ... did they get him too? Yep.  
04:16 (Pilot): They took the first and uh the last out. They're going to come back around

04:17 (MC): Do we want to switch back to other frequency?  
04:17 (Pilot): I tried, nobody was talking to me over there  
04:17 (Sensor): Looks like they're surrendering. They're not running.

04:18 (Sensor): That guy's laid down? They're not running.  
04:18 (Safety Observer): Dude, this is weird  
04:18 (Sensor): They're just walking away 

04:18 (Safety Observer): You want to see if there's anybody at the back?  
04:18 (Unknown): Yeah (unintelligible) outline  
04:18 (Safety Observer): By that third wreck  
04:18 (Sensor): A couple - two or three  
04:18 (Sensor): Yeah, they're just chilling  
04:18 (Pilot): Zoom in on that for a second for me. The third one.  
04:18 (Sensor): The third one?  
04:18 (Pilot): Yeah. Did they blow that up? They did, right?  
04:18 (Safety Observer): They did, yeah  
04:18 (Sensor): No they didn't  
04:18 (Pilot): They didn't  
04:18 (Sensor): They didn't  
04:18 (Sensor): No, they're just out there  
04:18 (Pilot): Yeah, that thing looks destroyed, though, doesn't it?  
04:18 (Safety Observer): Yeah, they hit it. There's some smoke  
04:18 (Sensor): They hit it. You (unintelligible) ... These guys are just ... (rocket attack on middle vehicle)

04:22 (Sensor): PID weapons, I don't see any ...  
04:22 (Saftey Observer): Got something shiny on the one at the right  
04:22 (Sensor): Right  
04:22 (Sensor): That's weird  
04:22 (Pilot): Can't tell what the *expletive* they're doing  
04:23 (Sensor): Probably wondering what happened  
04:23 (Safety Observer): There's one more to the left of the screen  
04:23 (Sensor): Yeah, I see them  
04:23 (Safety Observer): Are they wearing burqas?  
04:23 (Sensor): That's what it looks like  
04:23 (Pilot): They were all PIDed as males, though. No females in the group  
04:23 (Sensor): That guy looks like he's wearing jewelry and stuff like a girl, but he ain't ... if he's a girl,  he's a big one 

4:32 (Safety Observer): One of those guys up at the top left's moving.  
04:32 (Sensor): Yeah, I see him.  I thought I saw him moving earlier, but I don't know if he's...is he  moving or is he twitching?   
04:32 (Safety Observer): Eh, I think he moved.  Not very much, but.  
04:32 (Sensor): Can't, can't follow them both.  
04:32 (MC): There's one guy sitting down.  
04:32 (Sensor): What you playing with? (Talking to individual on ground.) 
04:32 (MC): His bone.

04:36 (Sensor): Looks like it, yeah.  
04:36 (MC): Self-Aid Buddy Care to the rescue.  
04:36 (Safety Observer): I forget, how do you treat a sucking gut wound?  
04:37 (Sensor): Don't push it back in.  Wrap it in a towel.  That'll work.

04:38 (Pilot): They're trying to *explicative* surrender, right?  I think.  
04:38 (Sensor): That's what it looks like to me.  04:38 MC: Yeah.  I think that's what they're doing.

04:40 (Sensor): What are those?  They were in the middle vehicle.  
04:40 (MC): Women and children.  
04:40 (Sensor): Looks like a kid.  
04:40 (Safety Observer): Yeah.  The one waving the flag.

04:42 (Safety Observer): I'd tell him they're waving their... 
04:43 (Sensor): Yeah, at this point I wouldn't...I personally wouldn't be comfortable shooting at these  people.  
04:43 (MC): No.
