How British army sniper killed 6 terrorists with 1 bullet
You hit the suicide vest. LOL.
That is pretty good.The unidentified marksman, a Lance Corporal in the Coldstream Guards, hit the target from 930 yards (850 metres) away while in Kakaran in southern Afghanistan.
All six terrorists were killed after a single bullet hit the trigger of a suicide bomber’s vest, which exploded killing everyone around him, The Daily Telegraph reported.
It is understood the marksman, who was 20 at the time, was using an L115A3 gun, which is one of the most powerful sniper weapons.
Lt Col Richard Slack, commanding officer of the 9/12 Royal Lancers, explained how the shot happened in December 2013 when hundreds of British and Afghan soldiers were in a gun battle with 15 to 20 insurgents.
He said in March 2014: “The guy was wearing a vest. He was identified by the sniper moving down a tree line and coming up over a ditch.
