My first cousins husband Randy was one of the 37 killed . It was horrific on his wife and our family . He left behind along with his wife a two year old daughter and a six month old baby boy he’d never met .
Hello Dan, my understanding is that the Mirage F1 didn’t have the range to reach targets at the far end of the Gulf, so the Iraqis had a Dassault Falcon converted to carry 2 Exocets. The Mirage only mounted 1.

I’m very sorry for your loss.
I was on watch as AE.
A ton.
Type me up. I was there and was on the USS Coontz DDG-40 and your story needs more detail.
I was on the USS California CGN-36. The Stark relieved us from our mod and we proceeded too, then through the Suez.
I wonder why the Iraqis would use a converted civilian aircraft?
