Default Gunship mpeg

Can you tell me how to get that mpeg. I am doing a Navy brief on the AC-130 gunship and this video would be great to show.

Chris, Secret, where can I view this? I just love watching Lockheed Martin products (hell, even Boeing products) kick Taliban butt!

Default Gunship Video

I am very interested in the video. A co-worker who is in the ANG showed it to me at work, but by the time I got home it was shut down. I was a crew chief on an AC-130 H in the seventies and wanted to show my son the video. What a rip off!

If there is any way to get a copy, I would appreciate it.

Default Download from US RC Jet Command

This video's been floating around DoD for awhile and it's now posted to the US RC Jet Command.

Go to: http://www.usrcjc.org and click on the Links button, then go about halfway down. If you've got a slow connection, right-click on the hyperlink and select "save target as".

Enjoy!

They weren't using bombs. Everything in the video is either machine gun or cannon/artillary fire from the plane.

You can view the video at WWW.military.com

Default Death From Above!!

I don't know if this is an H model or a U model. I crewed the H model and it had a 105 Howitzer and 40mm Bofor canon and two fixed 20mm gatlin guns. Both the canons are computer aimed on hydraulic trainable platforms. Death from Above was our motto. You can see why...

Our squadron song is "Ghost Riders in the Sky". Check out http://fireexpo.com/spectre/#Spectre%20Theme%20Song.

Thanks, y'all for the video. It meant a lot to me after all these years. Go Spectre!!!!!

Chuck
