In Syria, coalition military forces conducted nine airstrikes using bomber and fighter aircraft.

Wayne Marotto, CJTF-OIR chief of public affairs. “This allows the Coalition, with relative certainty, to provide post-strike analysis of the impact and effect each strike is having on Daesh terrorists and their capabilities.”

The following is a summary of the strikes conducted since the last press release:

Syria

In Syria, coalition military forces conducted seven airstrikes using bomber, attack and fighter aircraft. Separately in Iraq, coalition military forces conducted 14 airstrikes approved by the Iraqi Ministry of Defense using attack, bomber, fighter and remotely piloted aircraft against ISIL terrorists.

“We have conducted nearly 1,900 dynamic airstrikes during the campaign in Iraq, enabled by coalition Joint Terminal Attack Controllers (JTACs) located in our Combined Joint Operations Centers, which have resulted in the destruction of approximately 70 VBIEDS, 800 vehicles (technical and tactical), 650 buildings/facilities, 600 fighting positions and 60 boats in the possession of Daesh,” said Brig. Gen. Thomas Weidley, CJTF-OIR chief of staff. “These JTACs have access to fused intelligence, operational situational awareness tools, direct communications with coalition aircraft, and real-time surveillance and reconnaissance assets, which has allowed them to be a highly effective component of the strike process and its effectiveness on the battlefield.”

The following is a summary of the strikes conducted since the last press release:

Syria

On Sunday 7 June, another Reaper engaged on surveillance duties tracked an ISIL truck moving at high speed on a road close to the border with Syria; a Hellfire missile scored a direct hit on the vehicle.

That night, an RAF Tornado GR4 patrol provided support to both the Kurdish peshmerga in north of the country, and to the Iraqi army further south. Near Sinjar, peshmerga came into contact with an ISIL team armed with rocket-propelled grenades, who were fortified inside a building. In a carefully planned attack to avoid any risk to the Kurdish forces very close to the target, the Tornados successfully destroyed the building with a single Paveway IV guided bomb.

The two Tornados then flew south to the area around Bayji, where a group of terrorists had been observed gathering in a large building, preparing an attack on an Iraqi army unit. A strike with two Paveways demolished the building.

De danske F-16-fly, der er udsendt som bidrag til Operation Inherent Resolve, har siden seneste opdatering 26. maj fløjet 9 missioner og anvendt 20 bomber.

02-06-2015 – kl. 15:13

Missionerne, som de danske fly har deltaget i, har været offensive, og de danske fly har i den forløbne periode primært deltaget i missioner i Salah al Din, Al Anbar og Ninawa provinserne. Målene for bomberne har været bygninger og fjendtlige våbensystemer.

De danske fly har fløjet Close Air Support-missioner (CAS), hvor flyene er indsat direkte som luftstøtte til styrker på landjorden. Her vil flyene patruljere over et bestemt område, hvorefter de vil kunne blive indsat af koalitionen, når der er behov for støtte. Luftstøtten vil variere afhængig af, hvad der er behov for. Det kan både dreje sig om overvågningsopgaver og bombninger af mål.

De danske fly har også gennemført Air Interdiction-missioner. Her gennemføres et specifikt angreb mod et på forhånd defineret mål, hvor flyene flyver direkte til målet, anvender bomber og flyver retur. I denne uge har målene for bomberne været bygninger.

På de missioner, hvor de danske F-16 ikke har anvendt våben, har de bidraget med overvågning og indhentning af efterretninger. På sådanne overvågningsmissioner er flyene dog altid klar til at anvende våben, hvis der er behov for det.

Siden første mission den 16. oktober 2014, har det danske bidrag i alt fløjet 365 missioner og anvendt 322 bomber. Alle de danske bomber er præcisionsstyrede, hvilket vil sige, at de styres mod deres mål ved hjælp af enten laser eller GPS.

F-16 jachtvliegtuigen vlogen ongeveer 10 missies boven Irak. Hierbij zijn meerdere ISIS doelen gebombardeerd.
