Gulf War: Operation Desert Storm with the Ghost F-117
The Gulf War was the first post-Cold War international crisis, and the United States did nearly all of the fighting against Iraq in spite of having Coalition Force from 34 nations. The video clip contains a short live footage news of early hours of January 17, 1991 in the beginning of Operation Desert Storm. This was the First Air Strike by F-117 Stealth Bombers to destroy the Iraqi air force and anti-aircraft facilities. As mentioned in the video, it was the first major combat for F-117A’s.
This video clip is taken from the Youtube posted by BongHitBrian on May 26, 2008 titling “First Strike Gulf War Air Campaign 1991”. There are no credentials posted to this video, but it is assumable that it was a part of a live news telecast .
