The Apaches have been busy.


At sea, a NATO vessel conducting surveillance operations detected high speed inflatable boats approaching Misratah. These craft have previously been used by Qadhafi’s special forces in attempts to attack the harbour.

The British Army Apaches aboard HMS Ocean were duly alerted and intercepted the boats, destroying two with 30mm cannon fire. The British Army Apaches then successfully engaged a ZSU-23-4 self-propelled anti-aircraft system on the coast near Zlitan.
