Crazy the US was able to obviously position their B2s from across the world and bomb the most obvious targets and Iran wasn't able to do a thing to stop it.
They're an impressive tool of evil, no doubt.
It was a blackhawk. The various fed agencies apparently fly helis up and down the potomac day and night. It's usual. Helo was operating visually, was instructed by the tower to cross behind the aircraft on approach. They reported the aircraft in sight, but obviously whatever they saw was something else.
There have been so many close calls over the past couple of years at American airports, and atc is wildly understaffed. This one is squarely on the helo pilots, but a collision has been bound to happen soon.
Aircraft flying up and down through an active approach path needs to stop immediately. And hopefully something is done to address the staffing issues with atc. This is scary.
"Yeah our buddy israel bombed you guys first and killed a bunch of your high ranking officials, but you need to end this war NOW. Also israel has a right to defend itself."
