Maybe attacking american personel was not the wise strategic choice on their part. Who the gently caress are you nerd? Are you loving high? Iran has really good cyber warfare dudes and also connections to a lot of really bad people who likely have zero day backdoors to every major utility and medical system in the US. poo poo they quite likely have ways to get into secure government networks too. They also have control of the Straits of Hormuz, if you close that off to US ships, or go bigger and close it to all merchant shipping, the economy is gonna take a major poo poo because oil will spike hard. Starting a war with Iran is monumentally stupid, nuclear proliferation issues aside, nothing good will come of it and a whole lot of bad poo poo is gonna happen for no loving reason other than someone whispered in trump's ear that wartime presidents get re-elected. Maybe dropping a bomb on a dude at an airport was not a wise strategic choice on Supreme Leader Drumpf's part? E: Meshka, if you are in the military, decisions like what happened tonight get you killed. If you're not in the military, you're a chickenhawk piece of poo poo and I would love nothing better than to hand you a loving M4 and a parachute and drop you into a combat zone to see the "glory" of war up close and personal. orange juche fucked around with this message at 09:05 on Jan 3, 2020 |

So the shootdown was apparently because the battery commander could not raise HHQ, and could not determine what the aircraft was and everyone was on edge, and claims that there was 10s before the aircraft was out of range of his battery, and he made the call to fire. So basically what everyone kinda figured, a communications breakdown in a high stress environment. That battery commander is probably on suicide watch though i'd bet, once someone told him what he shot down. Dude's gonna be reliving that order for the rest of his life

AARP LARPer posted:Thanks for letting me pop in here real quick. I have a dumb question that doesn't merit a thread and you seem like a decent lot. Positional authority is the term for the person who is acting on behalf of the commander, sometimes it's coat tail riding sometimes it's legitimate. Depends on the situation really.

Usually it's not some private fucknuts running around giving orders on behalf of a general. You will see it happen between enlisted members of a commanders staff and a command they are I guess embedded with. I can only use naval scenarios because that's what I have experience with. Example Petty Officer 2nd class Schmuckatelli comes down to the communications shop and tells us the the Admiral's NIPR computer isn't working, and basically orders someone from the comms shop to come fix it. That would fly if they're a member of the commander's staff, and also the commander's comms guy. If they're not both of those, often they will be told to get lost.

As a side note it's fun from the outside looking in when a junior officer comes to you and asks what they should do in X situation and you tell them to grow a pair and figure it out (noncritical situation obviously, if they actually need help or will gently caress poo poo up I give advice). Id have never been able to do that as an enlisted dork but it's fun to do it to young officers now, I can see why senior enlisted enjoy it.
