Jumper: NATO Lucky Serbs |
 | | Jumper maintained that those Allies can quickly get up to par by investing in secure voice communications, identification, friend or foe systems, and a "modest" precision-strike capability, all of which, he said, are "not sexy or new" but can be acquired at a modest cost. |
 | | Jumper pointed out that B-1 bombers, already airborne, were shifted to new targets and, "if they were loaded with a mix of weapons," would attack different types of targets. |
 | | Jumper said one myth that was "probably reinforced" among those not directly involved in the operation was that an altitude of 15,000 feet conferred some sort of immunity from enemy fire or that it was "no risk" to operate from there. |
