November 27th 2014 – British forces have conducted further air missions to assist the Iraqi government’s military operations against the ISIL terrorist organisation.

Royal Air Force (RAF) Tornado GR4s, working in close conjunction with RAF Reaper aircraft, flew over northern Iraq in support of Kurdish peshmerga who have made several advances against ISIL in recent days.

The initial target for the Tornados was an ISIL fighting position, which was struck with Paveway IV guided bombs.

The GR4s then joined the Reaper in a combined attack on a group of 9 ISIL vehicles; a mixture of armoured personnel carriers and armed pick-up trucks.

The group was struck with a combination of Brimstone and Hellfire missiles, and Paveway IV bombs.

During the afternoon of 26 November, another RAF Reaper operating elsewhere in the country was able to assist Iraqi soldiers who were under fire from an ISIL position.

Notes

Reports 13 new missions since November 17th which dropped 18 mbombs, at Fallujah, Tikrit, Bayji, Mosul and Anbar.

26-11-2014 – kl. 18:30: Missionerne, som de danske fly har deltaget i, har været offensive, og der har været en stigning i antal anvendte bomber i forhold til de seneste uger, hvor danskerne ellers i højere grad har bidraget til indhentning af efterretninger og overvågning af væsentlige steder og aktiviteter.

De danske fly har i den forløbne uge deltaget i missioner i områderne omkring Fallujah, Tikrit, Bayji, Mosul samt i Al-Anbar-regionen.

En af de missionstyper, som flyene har gennemført, er Air Interdiction. Her planlægges et specifikt angreb mod et på forhånd defineret mål udførligt og detaljeret hjemmefra, og flyene flyver direkte frem til målet, kaster bomber og flyver retur. Ved denne type missioner har de danske fly primært bombet bygninger.

Derudover har de danske fly i den forgangne periode fortsat gennemført en del Close Air Support-missioner (CAS), hvor flyene er indsat som luftstøtte til styrker på landjorden. Luftstøtten kan bestå af flere forskellige opgaver, afhængig af hvad der er behov for.

CAS-missioner udgør fortsat størstedelen af de 13 gennemførte missioner. Ved CAS-missionerne er der ikke nødvendigvis et på forhånd defineret mål; her bliver flyene indsat til fx at anvende våben, hvis det er nødvendigt.

På nogle af CAS-missionerne har flyene kastet bomber i forbindelse med kamphandlinger på jorden. Her har målene blandt andet været køretøjer og fjendtlige styrker.

På de missioner, hvor flyene ikke har anvendt våben, har de primært 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.

I løbet af de seneste 13 missioner har de danske fly kastet 18 bomber mod fjendtlige styrker, køretøjer og bygninger.

Siden første mission den 16. oktober 2014, har det danske bidrag i alt fløjet 74 missioner og anvendt 60 bomber.

Le 21 novembre 2014, l’avion de patrouille maritime Atlantique 2 (ATL2) de la Marine nationale a effectué son premier vol de SCAR-C (Strike Coordination and Reconnaissance – Coordinator) au-dessus de l’Irak.

Opération Chammal : L’ATL2 étend son champ d’action

L’ATL2, et son FAC-A (Forward Air Controller Airborne), a ainsi été désigné chef de mission d’un dispositif d’Air Interdiction composé de deux patrouilles de F16 américains et danois. Cette mission, qui a déjà prouvé son efficacité lors des opérations Harmattan et Serval, permet d’optimiser les capacités de l’avion et de son équipage dans la conduite des opérations de Dynamic Targeting contre le groupe terroriste Daech.

Lors de cette première sur le théâtre des opérations en Irak, le FAC(A) a coordonné l’action de l’Atlantique 2, des avions de chasse de la coalition et des JTAC (Joint Terminal Attack Controller) du CAOC (Combined Air and space Operation Center) au Qatar afin de détecter, d’identifier et de frapper d’éventuelles cibles d’opportunités.

En complément des missions d’ISR (Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) réalisées depuis le début de l’opération Chammal, l’ATL2 a obtenu la responsabilité de la mission de SCAR-C et devrait régulièrement se voir confier ce type de mission par le CAOC.

Les militaires de la force Chammal poursuivent quotidiennement leurs missions de reconnaissance armée et de renseignement, afin d’appuyer l’action des forces armées irakiennes au sol.
