It has some interesting comments about the various aircraft and the general capabilities of each.

The Nightstalkers were in Uk albeit with a pair of A/MH-6i Little Birds at RAF Leeming, 2 years ago for exercise Jaded Thunder Whiteman's finest Warthogs also partook as well as 100 Sqn.

First time Jaded Thunder took place outside the CONUS I believe and first time the Nightstalkers have exercised in the UK?

Also have noticed they attend airshows with the likes of Open Houses and Qad-A
