Looks like a pretty nasty firefight between the Tamil Tigers and Sri Lankin Navy.
One point that struck me was he fact that if two Dvora FACs were sunk with light 'free mount' cannon and MG fire(and a third damaged), it sort of further reinforces my assertion that existing USN close in defense systems are completely adequate to this mission. At any rate, glad i wasn't there. I am highly allergic to light cannon and MG fire...  |

the numbers speak for themselves. LOL! are the ltte making that many boats out of thin air?lol! or maybe these ltte boats are multiplying like dickens! its a known fact that the Sl military just manufactures numbers out of thin air. rem the last battle in which about 150 soldiers were killed and 600 wounded? the gov said they lost only 20 till the ltte turned over the bodies of the rest. the ltte said that it did not lose any boats but lost 5 sea tigers, and the fact that they got weapons from a dvora ship would mean that the navy did retreat as the tigers claimed and eyewitnesses reported Last edited by starsiege : 11-10-2006 at 12:50 PM. |
