Not true. Us military types use tactics and procedures that we have practiced and devloped over decades because they work. You cannot eliminate risk but you can greatly reduce it.
And NEVER do a spiral - very bad idea.

Spiral
I was under the assumption a spiraling descent was used because the airfield should be 'therorectically secure'. No? Although back in the 80's an Irish flown L-382 was shot down with a stinger, happened to be a dud, up the tailpipe of #3. But then again, I believe that was on a daytime departure, Huambo, if I remember correctly..........
