WEBVTT 00:03.779 --> 00:07.050 From 0.7 Joe to arm and a rifle . 00:09.149 --> 00:11.260 There it goes cool . Hold that , hold 00:11.260 --> 00:13.750 that uh lace , hold that lace looking 00:13.760 --> 00:17.479 good looking good . Holding on the 00:17.489 --> 00:18.090 spot . 00:22.760 --> 00:26.760 No saved direct hit . As part 00:26.770 --> 00:30.149 of the 31st new New X , we were tasked 00:30.159 --> 00:32.340 with proceeding out east from Okinawa 00:32.349 --> 00:35.409 and destroying a fast attack craft . We 00:35.419 --> 00:37.990 took one cooper and one Huey and we 00:38.000 --> 00:40.167 flew east over the water approximately 00:40.167 --> 00:43.470 40 miles and shot a towed target with 00:43.479 --> 00:45.701 the joint air ground missile . The A GM 00:45.701 --> 00:49.590 179 this is the 00:49.599 --> 00:52.220 first time a dragon has been shot in 00:52.229 --> 00:55.029 Japan region with respect to things 00:55.040 --> 00:57.262 like the defense of the amphibious task 00:57.262 --> 01:00.090 force . So for this think small fast 01:00.099 --> 01:02.919 boats with the intent to explode in the 01:02.930 --> 01:05.041 vicinity of the ship . So what we can 01:05.041 --> 01:07.540 do is we can actually take off find 01:07.550 --> 01:09.661 those boats and destroy them prior to 01:09.661 --> 01:12.830 those boats becoming a factor for any 01:12.839 --> 01:16.099 sort of naval vessel . What made this 01:16.110 --> 01:18.221 work pretty smoothly is the fact that 01:18.221 --> 01:20.388 other entities set up a forward arming 01:20.388 --> 01:22.860 and refueling point to refuel and rearm 01:23.120 --> 01:24.779 and effectively extend our range
