    Some people online were laughing that our planes were bombing dumptrucks and dozers, instead of tanks and AA weapons.

    I have no idea why they can't bomb this equipment, as I'm not in charge of planning their sorties.

    You hit construction equipment because it's used to build emplacements, defensive revetments, defensive ditch obstacles, runways, and because the troglodyte worshippers of a 7th Century blood god are using this stuff to try to erase everyone else's history.
