Про потери ...
Читали на форуме в Hyperscale статью из Sunday Honolulu Advertiser?
Там анонимные откровения американского пилота как талибы пытаются сбить какой-нибудь крупный самолет.
Taliban forces “wanted something they could put on CNN” and tried repeatedly to shoot down a P-3 B-52 or a fighter said one VP-9 crew member who asked not to be identified because he had not received authorization to grant media interviews. The slow-moving P-3s became a favorite target.
“We would get shot at by anti-aircraft fire every time we went out there ” the crew member said. “You could see them but the anti-aircraft fire would never get high enough у (although) it would look like it was getting high enough.”
Taliban ground forces also fired unreliable MANPADS or shoulder-fired rockets and surface-to-air missiles one of which rocked a P-3 when it exploded close by. None of the P-3s was damaged or brought down through.
С потерями у американцев всегда все хорошо - любые только не боевые.
