"Don't pull for Valencina Rodya it's Walpurgis trap!" Don't care 😭

Iranian F-5 pilot who bombed US Buehring base in Kuwait: We were flying at an extremely, extremely low altitude. From a flight-standard perspective, the standard training altitude is around 500 feet, but we were below 50 feet. We knew that Patriot systems were deployed in the area, and that this base had multi-layered air defense. Given Kuwait’s cooperation, they were protecting this base, and scrambled F-18s were monitoring it. Even though we knew AWACS aircraft were up there and surveillance/listening sites were active, the entire flight was conducted under complete radio silence. I should mention here that there were 2-3 ships, we were flying so low that we passed between 2 ships, and their decks were higher than us. In other words, the sailors were looking down at us from the deck. We passed through there, and thank God, entered Kuwaiti waters, and from there entered Kuwait itself. When we entered Kuwait, the high-voltage power lines suddenly became 10x times more numerous. Their refineries and forces were along our route, all of them were within our reach. We could have bombed them immediately without any problem. But our target was Camp Buehring. We carried out this route at very high speed and very low altitude. And then, when we reached the base, we bombed it successfully.
