“My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart. God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every
day. If he turn not, He will whet His sword; He hath bent His bow, and made it ready. He hath also prepared for him the
instruments of death; He ordaineth His arrows against the persecutors. Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived
mischief, and brought forth falsehood. He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made. His mischief
shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate. I will praise the LORD according to
His righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.” Psalm 7:10-17, KJV.
(All English Bible verses are from the King James Version, KJV, Bible translation.)

1. Flares and smoke from the flare salvo -- fired by an overland United States Air Force C-141B Starlifter Cargo and Troop Transport, a jet-powered airlifter -- leaves in the sky a bright, dazzling-to-the-eye, white, spectacular formation with glowing "tips" that are very hot. The well-defined vortex on the left is caused by air turbulence created by the flight of the C-141B StarLifter aircraft. The flare countermeasure, a self-defense decoy operation or technique, is used to help protect the aircraft from an attack (or attacks) by deadly heat-seeking missiles.
