Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Jackal Cave 2015 exercise (Mi-17, Gripen)

Post by Levente »

The Jackal Cave 2015 is a joint Hungarian-Croatian-US exercise, which had a media day yesterday. During the day, all units – HDF 34, HDF 88, USAEUR 173. IBCT, 1/10 SOG + CROSOF – attacked a fictional town, where enemy militia held a VIP hostage. During the „attack”, two Mi-17 and one HUAF Gripen supported the attack. At the end of the day, when all media left, I stayed behind waiting for the helos departure. Good day all together it was. :thumb:
