When French and British planes destroy tanks. Video

(BRUXELLES2) This video released by the British defense and taken up by the daily newspaper The Sun illustrates the precision of the fire carried out from the British Tornado GR4 planes, with the anti-tank missiles from MBDA, the Brimstones. On Thursday, Franco-British forces spotted seven Russian-made T-72 tanks belonging to Gaddafi's forces, which were threatening the city of Ajdabiya. On the first pass, the Tornado had to leave the first 4 tanks because they were too close to civilians. The fifth tank is hit, then another and the seventh by a direct hit. The airplane was then at 100 feet and had to leave the theater for lack of fuel. The French (probably the Mirage 2000 D from the Nancy base) take over, dealing with three other tanks. The last tank was hit by the Tornado who had returned to finish the job.
