It was actually a tasteful movie.
A tasteful Micheal Bay film.
The CIA chief was a cartoon character though
And the Air Force proved itself to be the world's most irrelevant branch yet again. This was the USAF's fault more than anyone else.
>yfw the IT guy got a memorial picture in the film
>>28581502
How as the operating? Was there lots of it. Did any of it come off as believable?

gf and I went to see it the other day, I actually liked it, although I felt like they tried to be COD too hard at points in the movie. I coud have sworn a few times that I was no longer watching a movie and instead watching some kid play COD:MW2
>>28583906
how was the gunplay? That rocket bounce makes me want to go watch it right now

>>28583943
it was ok, they kept fingers off triggers, complained every time the new guy kept flagging them, used semi auto when they needed to get accurate shots on targets and full auto for supression fire etc.
I enjoyed it.
>>28583906
Sean Hannity had three of the guys on, and they actually said that the explosions were toned down a bit from what actually went down.

>implying the AF shouldn't be integrated into the army again to save their useless asses

more than half the movie is operating, repelling waves of attackers.
Pic is of the CIA chief. Every single scene.
>>28581502
What can I do to become a cool operator like Jim?
>>28584515
It's because the Army can't understand Warden's five rings faggot.

ATACMs covered over 80% of the Instant-Thunder Target list. GLCMS would have covered 100%.
Ironic how the USAF's chief justification for existence is the same one that makes pilots totally obsolete.
>>28584830
Remember that one time the F-22 was relevant and did something of note?
>>28582024
>>28582035
he was an SJW too
Sicario made CIA SAD SAG look like gods
13 Hours made the rest of the CIA look like a bunch of bitches and women
Why didn't they have SAD SOG members at the station? Maybe then they could have stood a fighting chance.
>>28581502

I literally cannot give less of a shit about CIA shenanigans. They got pantsed and paid the price.

who is Sean Hannity? I don't listen to Irish radio programming. do you have a link? Does he have good guests?
Don't mean to offend, I live in shithole of a country.
>>28585326
A "moderate conservative" aka limpwristed kneejerker radio show host in America.
>>28585326
>Irish radio
He's a guy on Fox News. Google is your friend, friend.
>>28583948
If you read the 13 hours book, the operators have nothing positive to say about the airforce. The drone that got provided was useless and was basically only telling them thing they already knew and providing intel on the areas that where within visual range of the CIA compound. Instead of providing them information about incoming threats outside of visual range
>>28584488
I literally laughed out loud in the theater when Tig shot a fucking grenade and it exploded in a giant fireball.
>>28585163
Because the operators on site where contractor bodyguards. They where used to escort case officers with no paramilitary experience around. They where all ex SF guys with exception of the marine. The guys who came in to help included two active duty Delta guys who where being used as astop gap messure because they didn't have enough of the contractors.
SAD SOG does the actual paramilitary shit like extracting assets and god knows what else.
>>28585411
Baysplosion!
>>28585370
I watched some vid of him. is it a comedy show like Saturday Night Live? I do not understand his act?
he is to be the stupid person and yell at people?
So this shit is Hillary propaganda, right?
>>28585711
The film made State Dept out to be irrelevant. The fact that Ambassador Chris Stevens insisted on setting up in a random barely guarded consulate was his own damned fault.
He was on the job for two months and wanted to win hearts and minds by pretending he totally wasn't in a war zone.
Fucker lived in a fantasy land, like most diplomats. Got himself killed.
>>28585747
Local employed guard details are a good way of showing you want to establish a relationship with a given region.
Its also a great way to get your shit pushed in
>>28584686
To be fair he's the only one who's shit on the movie. Probably because he got direct orders from Clinton to keep them at the annex
>>28585163
God damn, Jeffrey Donovan is who I want to be when I grow up
>>28585163
You're right.
I actually just got around to watching Sicario last night. Loved it.
Then I just saw 13 Hours today. Loved it.
>>28585411
Just watched the movie. Never saw that. When did that happen?
>>28585411
>>28586516
He didn't shoot the grenade. He shot the guy holding the RPG as he was getting ready to fire it and it was still pointed down and the guy pulled the trigger when he was shot.
>>28586528
Ok yea. I remember thinking that it wouldn't of armed by then.
>mfw the DShK did its thing when used on foot mobiles
>>28586940
Perhaps it was, I don't know. I questioned it a little bit, but it's a movie so I just moved on with it.
>>28585378
>drone operations
>anything but shit
This has little to do with the air force and everything to do with strategic level decision makers.
>>28586940
I laughed my fucken ass off when that sandnigger shot the RPG at the deck at his feet. People in the theater looked at me like I had a dick growing out of my forehead. RPG-7 HE rounds technically have a safe arming distance of 3-5 meters. But in IRL who the fuck knows, so yeah boom at 100 meters and boom at 1 meter.
>>28581502
torrents where?
>>28586516
Might have had the name wrong.
Guy with glasses lobs 40mm into group of bad guys, large fiery explosion is had.
>>28587139
To be fair, those ragheads are capable of fucking anything up. I've seen several clips of those retards firing an RPG into the very building they were using for cover because they decided to duck back into cover too quickly and blew themselves back to Allah as a result.
>>28587139
When they did a shot of 10th group in the plane
Say a little too loudly
>did that dude have a fucking m16

>>28587223
I remember that happening too. It was when they were fighting to the front gate of the Diplomatic Outpost and buddy was trying to hit the techie with a 40mm.
>>28587421
Yep.
Loud keks were had
>>28587243 I saw a vid of a couple of goat fuckers in a city and one of them turned the corner to shoot an RPG and right as he pulled the trigger nother mofo walks right behind him to pop off a couple rounds and ends up getting his face fucking evaporated from back blast
>>28587139
those safeties are disabled frequently in the middle east as seen on youtube allah ackbarus killing themselves all the time
>>28585163
That's Jeffery Donovan? Holy shit didn't even recognize him, fucking love Burn Notice.

3 seals, 2 marine sniper, 1 ranger, and 1 marine
where all of them had over a decade of experience and been on multiple DA mission.
They weren't push overs. They defended successfully too.
>>28586940
Some of the shitty knock off RPGs made for export in China have no safeties.
The real ones also have a maximum flight time counter that blows them up if you try to use them as artillery.
Let's you use them as cheap Flack against helicopters.
I y'all wanna read a tit-ass CIA spoopy ops story go buy or download the book "Charm School". Its late 80s cold war stuff though but its fucking incredible.
>>28588931
2 seals, 3 marines, 1 ranger
I highly recommend you guys read the book the movie is based on. Provides a bit more background info and exposition to some of the other shit going on.
>>28581879
>SJW raped to dead by Jihadis
Fuck that faggot. He would ban people for criticizing radical Islam. God has a sense of humor.
>>28589944
I hope he didn't say anything offensive as he died. Don't want to offend their sensibilities.
Being a PMC sounds unpleasant. No support in a failed scenario.
>>28581502
What did you want the Air Force to do? There were no other tactical air platforms in the vicinity, not even Navy.
>>28591985
Yeah.... totally nothing in the same vicinity that a fucking Pred Drone could fly from.
>>28591985
>No other tactical air platforms in the vicinity
>Literally an AC-130 station in Italy, and one was overhead as backup, but was ordered not to fire.
>>28585355
>Hannity is moderate
lmao
surprisingly based movie.
what was the deal with the rpg lobs? the rockets seemed to perfectly dive down into the compound. was that accurate?
also why did the libyan mortar crew stop after a few rounds? they could have killed way more people.
>>28591985
Airfag Defense Force spotted.
>>28592187
They probably got nervous staying in one spot for so long. That and they likely ran out of rounds.
Supposedly they had ample time to set up and get their angle right since local forces could have helped them hone in.
>>28590918
>>28591946
Then don't fail.
>>28593833
They failed by being there
And in such small numbers.
>>28592187
We rarely got mortared in afghanistan, but they would lob RPGs and recoilless rounds in all the time. It was pretty impressive.
i wish there was a screener, i don't want to pay for this bullshit
It being Bay, I can expect it to be Murrica as fuck, but is the gun stuff at least fairly accurate?
>>28595546
Not too murka. They showed the Libyans apologizing. And the terp was a good guy.
>>28581502
Did they totally ignore the main them of the IRL which was this was a CIA outpost used to source and ship weapons to terrorists in Syria?
>>28594736
fucking this
>>28585125
How'd that work out for him?
I worked the mission that brought the 4 back.
It was surreal hearing about it, stepping on the plane and seeing the 4 flag draped coffins. Nothing else on the plane.
>>28585627
>is it a comedy show like Saturday Night Live?
Sadly anon, his show has never been satirical.
But it's not like he's Glen Beck-tier crazy or anything.
>>28588931
In REAL life though it was 1 SEAL three peacetime POG marines and one peacetime ranger/national guard 2lt. All combined less than 20 years TIS and no one deployed with the armed forces. Lets not get our ducks too big over these guys.

Kind of, he was totally into at first and then withdrew consent halfway through.
>>28585747
Do some research.
He sent requests for more guards repeatedly. Literally begged for more help weeks before the attack. They knew something could be coming.
State dept actually cut their armed presence.
