how many iterations have their been?
I recall the movie Charlie Wilson's war where he got stingers into the hands of the Bin Laden types and they shot down a lot of Russian helicopters and then I read that when we went into Afghanistan we were told the Taliban had many left overbut not to worry becasue they won't work after such an age and now I see some kinda stingers being used "still" to shoot down Russian Helicopters today in ukraine.
I just have to assume a stinger missile to day is not the same kinda stinger Tom Hanks was peddling.
