Hello guys. I have just seen Black Hawk Down which occurs in 1992-1993 and there was a man saying that he was in Panama. He seemed young so I guessed that the Panama war was not too long before the Gulf War. When did this happen. I am not really sure when it did actually so some info would be helpful.

Operation Just Cause happened around 1988(ish). Not a war as such, just get rid of (arrest) Noriega.

First "combat" sortie for the F-117 was in Panama. Dropped a single (IIRC) LGB into a field in support of a specops operation.

Edit - oh and Malc, you want to work on getting an RV version of Panama ready? :D

1989, methinks. :)

And that's cool, whenever you want. :)
