We may need to find better commanders for the operation.

What would you "use" in Syria then?

In conventional warfare, the wise and the advanced may have the upper hand. But clearly in regards to counterterrorism, morale and motivation is the driven force from a military/police limited approach. You can make them disgust their life by not even properly being able to supply them and ship them meals 3-times a day, every day he goes out to capture the streets back, he will question why the fuvck he is doing it. But also you have no idea how happy and motivated the SOF guys become when reading a letter from a 7 year old kid that they don't even know, right after we gave a final salute to their fallen comrade.

TSK never lose a conflict when it had the full support of the nation.

We need sniper teams all over hunting these ISIS AT teams. Before our tanks move snipers must scan all possible areas of attack.

I am sure we are doing this but we need more obviously. These guys can't hide that easy.


F you ISIS, you will lose Al-Bab soon.

Can't we use mini guns to shoot down these incoming missiles? They seem to fly in slow and can be spotted coming in.

Why are we not moving around at night? We have Night fighting capabilities.

You are right. Our tank losses are so silly, this tank was our 9th tank hit by an ATGM in Syria, also lots of APC hit by IS ATGMs. We need to use our special forces better with thermal cameras to find IS positions, before they use ATGM.

I only saw ANHA reports this, who claimed that PKK shooted F-16 down. I think we need time to confirm this if it is real or fake.

 

[Mucahit]

9 tanks and a dozen APC's

34 vehicles in total so far.

We act like if we are in 1990s. A tank is just useless in Syria. They have lots of ATGMs, anti-tank mines, drones that spot tanks. A tank costs millions. I prefer buying heavy machine gun mounted Toyota pickups. It is not a war of technology or firepower. It is just the numbers...

We can't lose tanks at this rate. Extremely cost inefficient, time consuming to replace, psychologically unacceptable.

And the same story will come again but with fighter jets...

If jets were active we wouldnt loose that many vehicles. They would take out the enemy from air or provide information so ground forces can take out the threats. It looks like those vehicles are all on their own. no air support at all.

Do you think flying a fighter jet over Syria is easy for us?

I think its easy but it might be a lil bit dangerous.
