Originally posted by Tirau DanAs I stated earlier. Much different scenario then that what the SAS would have now. I also stated that the aborted attempt at desert one was a fiasco because of the infighting between branches of the military. That wouldn't happen now. They used the wrong chopers for the job (Navy), wrong pilots as they were plucked from the Marines to make it a all service operation. Considering Delta is patterned after the SAS and they constantly train with the SAS,GSG-9, Sayaret Maktal and other anti-terrorist groups. The SAS wouldn't have to travel halfway around the world and land in Iran. They are probably already in Iran along with the US's Delta force in preparation of a rescue mission. They have worked together many other times in Bosnia, Columbia, Peru, Afghanistan and other countries.
Lol.. In '79 ..Two of eight helicopters to lost their way. A third helicopter broke down. That left them unable to pick up everyone so they aborted, then one chopper crashed into a C-130, eight US servicemen were killed five USAF aircrew in the C-130, and three USMC aircrew. Six helicopters were left behind intact 5 of which now serve with the Iranian Nav ishes that.. I'm sure this will come to a diplomatic conclusion soon. I sincerely hope so.
