I didn't get to see much TV today...
But, I did see some of Sissy Chrissy Matthews' show..and he didn't even mention this ....
IOW..he didn't want to even acknowledge that our military did anything GOOD...and the maybe, just maybe...Pres. Bush isn't the idiot that he wants everyone to believe he is.
Please consider this recipe officially stolen.
Thanks for posting it.
Outstanding pic!Thanx
'Sounds like it. Let's see - a number of vulcan 20 mm, and at least one 105mm on board the A/C - 130 Spectre. A seriously "killer" machine - pun intended.'
I think you're referring to an earlier model. The AC-130 carries a 25 mm. Gatling gun, a 40 mm. Bofors cannon, and the 105mm cannon.
The rate of fire is thousands of rounds per _minute_, not per second, and not counting the 25 mm. weapon is only a bit over one hundred rounds per minute. The 40 mm and 105 mm rounds pack a pretty good punch though.
I stand corrected - my bad.
