RAF Regiment gunners become 'aces' by blasting Iran drones

Crack RAF Regiment gunners have made history by becoming drone 'aces' after blasting scores of Iranian missiles out of the sky while defending British bases in the Middle East. Four personnel achieved 'ace' status by taking out five or more drones while carrying out their role. The title of 'ace' is based on the same definition as in the Second World War, when pilots were described as such if they shot down five enemies.
