AN AC-130 pulls up on north Korea and says "freeze sucker we got you covered. Hand over all your Nuc's or we'll blow your head off!"
Ever wonder what Korea will look like without a head. Just keep watching the news.

Well stated Sir Krustin ... I was about to add that they mounted a 105mm in a couple when I saw your post.

I can't view the video either. I keep getting the can't find file, web address, host etc... error message. I doubt the material is anything more than Secret. Though I wouldn't want to be the crewman in charge of the gunship cameras when they talk to him. Was the footage taken with the aircrafts camera or with a hand held?

I got errors the first time, but the second it downloaded a couple of codecs and played. Dunno whats going on with it, maybe its just highly popular and the server is overloaded.

My bad, I was at work when I posted about the AC-130, didn't have the reference books here [img]smile.gif[/img] 75mm wouldn't do what I was seeing, but the 105 would [img]smile.gif[/img] Err are you sure the 105 is an Anti-tank gun and not a howitzer? I don't remember ever seeing anything about a rifled anti-tank weapon on this bird.

My source says antitank, though a howtizer is more likely - the barrel would be quite long, and these weapons all protrude from the left side of the aircraft (as opposed to longitudinally).

EDIT> Another source says the M102 howitzer.

I can't watch it either, i did a windows mediaplayer update, but still no footage. I heard from someone who saw it that it's quite a scene.

I was only just able to play it myself, that server must be quite busy. Winamp3 kept hanging on me, but WMP finally loaded it!

Nice footage, definitely ALLTV video. I heard "105" and "howitzer" many times in the video, which confirms what we discussed. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

In fact, they didn't seem to use the 25mm at all, and the 40mm only for spotting rounds - most of the damage was done by the 105mm.

Notice the guys running for the mosque!?

Me too. Is that to do with the site itself or just our computers?
