Interesting clip. The same pair controlled what, four UAVs(the icons on the sensor operator's screen)?

I can also easily see how this leads to innocents getting killed. Here they shoot up a simluated pick-up, most certainly without knowing why exactly. They're given the order to take it out so they do it. If the person giving the permission has screwed up, due to bad intel or any other reason, this is a very effective way to blast two honest local farmers instead of taliban. The way I see it precision is a much smaller problem nowadays than having good intel on the target.
