Dutch F-16 bombing taliban compound in Afghanistan

The video shows the footage from the cockpit of two Royal Netherlands Air Force F-16s as they drop GBU-12 laser guided bombs on taliban positions.

There is some Dutch talking in the background but I couldn't filter it out. An Air Force spokesperson is basicly explaining how they operate.

Translated:
"Machinegun fire came from a compound a couple of hundred meters away from a British position. We [the F-16] were called in to destroy the compound. The forward air controller reported that there was no risk of collateral damage, the pilot confirmed this over the radio. A laser guided bomb was then dropped on the compound and stopped the machinegun fire."
