How the hell do they get such a good look and also fire on the men without alarming them to their presence? What kind of range was that?

They probably believed ISAF ROE would prevent them from getting smoked.

They were dead wrong.

An Aerostat blimp tethered in Kabul observes a Taliban machine gun team following an attack on an ISAF position five kilometers to the northeast.

As the insurgents regroup for exfiltration, an A-10 “Warthog” Thunderbolt II gets cleared hot for a strafing run. A three-man Taliban machine gun team takes the brunt of a 30mm GAU8 cannon burst. The team of insurgents was never heard from again.

Just think, some idiot actually wanted to get rid of the A-10. Best thing over there for taking out these scumbags.
