Iraqi killbots probably maneuver behind a wall in large, milling groups and take turns popping out to occasionally rip off a long burst in the general direction of the enemy before retreating back behind the wall

I'll add that given where we drop bombs nowadays destroying square footage is not a good metric since most everything there is made up of mud brick and low quality poured concrete blocks. Hardly critical infrastructure.

Almost every account of that war makes it seems like the Saudis rolled into Yemen completely oblivious to the situation on the ground (or at sea, in this case).

Or that Saudi soldiers have zero experience with actual soldiering and all the fancy equipment in the world can't change that

I get that a lot of these guys aren't trained but wtf?! It's common loving sense that popping out, getting someone's attention by shooting at them, and then regularly stepping out in the same exact spot over and over is basically screaming "kill me I'm a shithead!" as loud as you can

Black guys just didn't go for subs I think. Too smart for that dumb bullshit.

I beg to differ!
