Special Ops Unit, Fighter Jet Team Up To Kill Bad Guy

Published|Updated

Jason Cooper once teamed up with some badass operators to smoke a target.

I was recently joined by Jason on American Joyride to share some stories, and he was an awesome guest. The former Air Force F-16 pilot had a pretty interesting 2008 deployment to Iraq that involved working heavily with special operations in a fashion you might not assume if you just watch the movies.

Cooper used highly-advanced technology on his aircraft to help operators on the ground pinpoint where guys were and terminate them. He shared with me a wild story about tracking a guy with his targeting pod and directing the special ops unit to smoke him. It's a great story.

You can listen to his comments starting around 32:00, and make sure to let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
