Bilow, I don't know where you come up with some of your information, but you really need to verify what you read. I can guarantee that counter-battery isn't fired before the fired rounds land. We do have good capabilities, especially in the desert environment. I'm not so sure how that would all work out in rugged mountain terrain.

Reconnaisance from overhead is great when you're fighting battle formations, but when you're trying to find small cells that operate in guerilla warfare, it's like finding a needle in a haystack. And one thing I can assure you of, military intelligence analysts are not the swiftest.knc
