British special forces have been dropped into Libya to guide in missiles aimed at Colonel Gaddafi's military machine.
Using GPS systems and laser beams, they are identifying key targets including the building inside the dictator's Tripoli compound which was severely hit last night.
The elite troops, who radio the information back to a command centre, form a key part of the allied strategy to take out Gaddafi's air defences, communication systems and stop assaults against the rebels.
The laser operators focus an intense beam of light at a target, which is then detected by the attacking aircraft's bomb or missile. Upon release, the laser-guided weapons follow this aim point, homing in on the beam's reflection.
