“What the…?” called Dill. “My target has not come down. Repeat, she’s still standing. My JSOW must not have been big enough or didn’t detonate properly. Request permission to follow up with JDAM.”

“Negative, Dill. That’s why we have redundancy. Let the others hit first and we’ll see.”

“Copy.”

“Copy, we had a system failure and had to reboot the radar a few times. Annoying as all hell, but we’re here.”

“Copy,” I said. “Keep them off of us, we may have to go back for another run.” I set up my JDAMs just in case and turned toward the target area.

“Maybe not,” said Dill. “I think one of my targets are destroyed.”
