Iranian-backed Fighters Attack Another Supply Convoy Of US-led Coalition In Southern Iraq

On February 17, a convoy carrying logistic supplies and equipment for the US-led coalition came under attack in the southern Iraqi province of Dhi Qar.

An Iraqi security source told the Shafaq agency that the convoy was targeted with an improvised explosive device (IED) while it was passing on a highway leading to Nasiriyah city. According to the source, two vehicles were damaged.

“No mentionable [human] losses were recorded,” the unnamed source added.

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq – ‘Ashab al-Kahf claimed responsibility for the attack in a brief statement. The group said that several Fijian contractors working for the US-led coalition were injured in the attack. A “heavy” IED was used in the operation.

Today’s attack in Dhi Qar is the most recent in a series of operations against US-led coalition forces in Iraq. Iranian-backed armed groups, like ‘Ashab al-Kahf, are responsible for most of these attacks.

Two days ago, a rocket attack targeted Erbil International Airport. A civilian contractor was killed and nine other people, including a US service member, were wounded.

These attacks are meant as a response to the assassination of Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, Deputy-Commander of the Popular Mobilization Units (PMU), and Iranian Quds Force Commander Maj. Gen. Qassim Soleimani that took place more than a year ago.

In an interview with the excellent aviation magazine Hush-Kit, an anonymous Panther pilot describes the F-35’s cockpit and interface system. The pilot says the cockpit itself is “beautiful,” full of screens that allow you to bring up an incredible amount of information about the fighter with just a few finger swipes, and customize the data to tailor it for the particular mission.

The F-35 is the first to use touchscreen technology. Unlike switches, which take up permanent cockpit space, touchscreens allow the same LCD screen space to be instantly repurposed. One minute, a display could be used to pull up data on an aircraft’s fuel reserves, and the next, it could help target an enemy position on a mountainside. That goes a long way toward simplifying the cockpit and not overwhelming a pilot with wall-to-wall physical switches, dials, and single-use displays.

But the problem with touchscreens, the pilot explains, is a lack of tactile feedback. Switches have a nice, satisfying click that instantaneously lets the user know they were successfully flipped. Almost everyone with a smartphone has touched a virtual button on a touchscreen, expected a result … and then nothing happens. The anonymous pilot reports failing to get a result from a touchscreen about 20 percent of the time:

At present I am pressing the wrong part of the screen about 20 [percent] of the time in flight due to either mis-identification, or more commonly by my finger getting jostled around in turbulence or under G. One of the biggest drawbacks is that you can’t brace your hand against anything whilst typing—think how much easier it is to type on a smartphone with your thumbs versus trying to stab at a virtual keyboard on a large tablet with just your index finger.

Other problems include the $400,000 custom-fitted “magic helmet”, which replaces the heads-up display (HUD) as well as sensor displays. The F-35 pilot believes old-fashioned HUDs are superior due to their ability to better display information without the need to “shrink” it to fit the helmet’s field of view. The voice recognition feature also apparently goes completely unused:

Voice input is another feature of the jet, but not one I have found to be useful. It may work well on the ground in a test rig, but under G in flight it’s not something I have found to work consistently enough to rely on. I haven’t met anyone who uses it.

Frankly, great chief, the real issue is the illegal and murderous US and NATO vassals destruction and occupation of Iraq, a major Arab state for the past two decades. The US invaded Iraq to serve the interests of its Zionist masters and plunder its oil. 90% of Iraqi oil is now paying for US and Zionist terrorism and wars in the region. Iraq, which was once a prosperous middle income nation has been reduced to absolute poverty and majority of its population unemployed, maimed or killed by US and NATO brutality. These increasing resistance attacks are a wake up call for the murderous US and NATO thugs to leave the region or a massive resistance is coming. This is nothing to do with Iran, but the fact that Iraqi people are fed up of US criminal brutality and theft of their natural resources. The whole Iraq population is against the US occupation and these resistance groups will eventually unite.

Adam Prisbit

Time to unleash the dogs. No more tolerance for irgc terrorist in iraq. US Navy need to unleash F/18 super hornet and F-15 airforce to start destroy EVERY single headquarter, warehouse and barracks of PMU, hash shabi, and iraqi hezbollah terrorist. Destroy terrorist now! NO WAIT

Blas de Lezo

Don’t worry just like with the Houthi terrorists, President and Commander in Chief Joe Biden will lift the IRGC terrorists designation, right after he rejoins the Obama-Iran nuclear deal.

Adam Prisbit

in your dream shet hed

Blas de Lezo

Once Biden rejoins the JCPOA it’s implied he’s letting IRGC off the hook with them billions of dollars that will be flowing to Iran to fund their military and their other malign actions.

Frank

Frankly, you are desperate loser who UPVOTES themselves :)

Ewan

Israel can do SHitall to IRGC anywhere. Why go to Iraq for IRGC? – they are right on Israeli border shithead.

Adam ShitBit

another tantrum from our favorite parasite “prisbit” highly expected

‘Wake up call’: Deadly Iraq rocket attack puts pressure on US to end a pointless occupation that has lasted two decades and cost over a million Iraqi lives

The audacious deadly rocket barrage launched from inside Iraq’s Kurdish region raises questions about US vulnerability and growing widespread Iraqi resistance to the brutal occupation. US needs to get out while it can.

verner

them morons from the disunited states of exceptional idiots can’t leave the middle east since that means leaving the parasitic jews in palestine without adequate defense and since the exceptional idiots are the jews’ proxy in the area and thus the bought and paid for lawmakers on the hill wouldn’t leave the payor in a lurch.

Ahson

Exactly!!!!……Iran will escalate this gradually and make their position untenable.
