Do they actually use those operationally? Or is it just a one-time for show thing?
Ye. The Demo teams of belgium and Holland have a paintjob wich is changed once a year.

The tiger squadron's get one plane a year wich they can paint, but at their cost.

A paintjob for an average size jet like a F16 or Mirage costs 1500 euro

Picture
There are rumors that the KSK got these guys some time after they were posing infront of that burnt-out Dingo.
This particular vehicle has been destroyed by German forces after they were unable to recover it during the firefights on Good Friday 2010.
And so he spoke, and so he spoke, that lord of Castamere,
But now the rains weep o'er his hall, with no one there to hear.
Yes now the rains weep o'er his hall,
and not a soul to hear.

This is, I believe, the coolest looking airplane ever.

Zrix, euhm, no? There is no fire at all near the back on you pic, just the turret. On mine there is no fire on the turret, just the back thus it must be 2 different incidents. Also, my turret is pointing forward, yours to the right. It also has a different kind of cage armour.

Molotov is a popular weapon, many incidents like this.

Anyhow, people died in this one. 6 I think.

Yea, you're right it's not the same vehicle. I never said it was though  :P
I still believe it's from the same incident in Basra 2005 though.

But enough discussion.

Small picture but perfectly captured it for me, this guy wants one thing; out.
