Fighter plane fireing on Iraq land.
A-10 is one of the coolest planes
By madventure 1145343275 Reply Spam [+2] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove... out of all the aircraft in the world, the A-10 kicks the most ass. Just listen to the Gatling Cannon... Whoo!
Anyone know the muzzle velocity or the rate of fire?

By playskoo 1179728528 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeof the A-10's gun a "fart from God" one of the last things anyone would want to hear!
By Poldaman 1148818974 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThe rounds from that a-10 cannon travel supersonic, so they hit you before you hear a dam thing.
By konehead 1170664042 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveUsually Gatling´s can fire approx. 6000rpm. Not sure if A-10´s gun can do it?
By madventure 1145609646 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove6000 huh? Thanks for the info!
By greatmoney 1145624855 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThe A-10 uses the Vulcan gun system which can fire at various rates up to 6000 rounds/minute (100/sec!). It uses ammunition made from depleted uranium for a very hard hitting punch (due to the heavy projectile mass). The recoil from the gun is so severe, that the gun is offset sideways so that the firing barrel (1 of 6) is always aligned with the centerline of the aircraft. Upon firing, the airspeed drops significantly. The amount and variety of external ordnance that this aircraft can carry is the highest of any in it's size. An amazing aircraft with a functional beauty all it's own; affectionately nicknamed the "Warthog" by it's crew!
By Professor Solderflux 1145639677 Reply Spam [+2] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveActually, it's the AN/GAU-8 30mm Avenger gun system. It's made by (ex General Electric) Martin Marietta Armament Systems.
By Zhanger 1147931500 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThe term "Vulcan" gun actually applies to an entire class of multiple barrel, high discharge weapons initially developed by GE starting in 1946. The original weapon spawned a new family of guns of varying calibers with firing rates as high as 10,000 SPM (shots per minute)! Barrel number varies as well, with as few as 3, or as many as 7. "Vulcan" was the ancient Roman god of fire, so it seems a fitting name for this family of fire power!

By greatmoney 1145641963 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeif you don't support our troops you liberal bitch then get out of the USA and live with those iraqi bastards.I support the war, hopefully you can go over there you can catch an American bullet.

By suck my 1153487510 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThis vid is on a firing range and not in Iraq. It is quite old. It was taken well before 2002. As far as ANYONE commenting on Iraq. I believe you have an opinion, but remember it is a very limited one unless you've been there. All most every Iraqi I met while I was there from 2003-2004 was happy that they were not under a dictator anymore and had a chance to put in their own govt.
By lifeguardhall 1164054836 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveGet them terrorist Muslims!
By Sobieski 1145048129 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveYou bastard and your whole family muthafucker. All those muslims are not terrorist. how stupid can you be?

By glitcher101 1251298434 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveIM REALLY TRYING TO SEE THINGS FROM THESE PERSONS PERSPECTIVES BUT I CANT SEEM TO GET MY HEAD THAT FAR UP MY ASS.HA HA
By RAMDEEP 1199773805 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI think it looks an awful like one made in Bosnia though. Sure this was shot in Iraq?
I am pretty sure that video predates 9/11 even.
And no not all Muslims are terrorists just as not all Prolife people are A******n clinic bombers.
IT would be helpful though if more muslims would step up and condemn the terrorists like most prolife people do condemning the actions of A******n clinic bombers!
Then they would get alittle more respect... Which is EARNED not given.
Just a thought.

The A-10 Warthog is an Attack Aircraft not a Fighter Plane
By CleptoUsmc 1172269736 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveDisgusting and repulsive what the u.s. are doing for cheap oil!
Is it worth to kill just for driving a car that makes less than 20miles per gallon?!?
NO!!!
What unhuman and notthinking creature u must be to be a soldier in that propagandabased army?!?
This footage is definitely from training on a firing range, not combat in Iraq.
By AirForce15 1161831483 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removewhat a joke!!! where was the sound track from, anyone who knows the hog knows that isnt even close to the sweet music they play!!!
if ya cant get it right then dont post any sound.
america closely followed by britain is the real terrorist.when ur asses get blown up again like 9/11 dont be moaning like bitches, take it on the chin, thats the reward of ur F**king so called fight againt terror.look in the mirror before you go talk crap.mother fuckers
By ace_1 1146086785 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveLOL Loose any countries recently?
are u crazy? it was the middle east that threw the first stone, and they have been attacking britain and america for years now, so at the end of the day if they didnt attack us then we wudnt have attacked them

By rifleman 68 1146527747 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveOther countries blast the hell out of the US etc., and then came crying for money, aid, whatever, and expect it.
I love it when some dictator criticises the US, then get's into his AMERICAN car, wearing his AMERICAN suit, goes home and watches it all on his AMERICAN television!.
No one but Americans and stupid people buy American cars, suites or TV’s. Burgers, soft drinks and running shoes maybe. you see style is not some thing America do. War, yes very good at that, but not style!
Thank god the US is our ally
By Gadea 1145890044 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveWhat a fabulous aircraft! My personal favorite is the AC 130 Gunship, that's one badass machine with a lot of heavy firepower! Hell yeah!!!
By bumble 1145850778 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveWow it's no wonder that when one of these planes fired on a British (they were on your side) tank in the first Gulf war, that it killed all 9 soldiers inside.
Yanks don't give a S**t who they kill. British army...BEST IN THE WORLD!
Don't be a f**king idiot no American would ever intentionaly kill a Brit war S**ks end of story but it is better to be on our side the there yes britsh army is good but come on the best in the world you know as well as I they could never compete with the US
By yoursisterhascrabs 1160268170 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removethe brits were killed by a helcopter
By rifleman 68 1146492267 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveYou obviously don't know what you are talking about.
F**king Redneck, who the hell taught you to write?
look up the video the freindly fire after dark was a helicopter you stupid limey.
By rifleman 68 1146527892 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removenope you stupid yank it was an A10 ive even seen a documentry made by the familys of the dead soldiers who where trying to get answers as to what happend.
we call this so called friendly fire, Blue on blue which is a british term for said instance. sad but some thing which is unavoidable in war i hope the lessons where learnt from it.
King of friendly fire. Bain of all North African Allies.
your wrong the clip(if its the same clip)was a helicopter it fired a hellfire at a troop transport and no matter what its still sad.
By rifleman 68 1148945195 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThe only british tank destroyed by american fire in desert storm was 75 miles out of its area of operations, if they stayed where they were supposed to be they wouldn't have gotten shot at.

By Angel Decoy 1103844913 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveGive me proof we need to be over there. I agree partly with Bush's decision, because we all know that the oil situation is getting serious on Earth, but instead of fighting maybe we could be working more on hybrid electrics instead of killing innocents for oil. Not every Iraqi is a damn terrorist.
By MikeRat 1134258825 Reply Spam [-1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removemike, ignorance is not bliss. it is ignorance which caused the terrorism situation at present because everyone ELSE thought it is alright.
Even if everyone drop their weapons, do you think the terrorists will stop? Think about it, they target CIVILIANS DELIBRATELY!
Get REAL!
You're right, not every Iraqi is a terrorist. But we are not killing every Iraqi, now, are we? Anybody who thinks so gets all their information from television. I spent 14 months in Iraq, and I killed 27 people, ALL of whom tried to kill me first. And you know what? I'll do the same to anybody who tries to kill me in America. 11B, hooah! All others are pogues.
By alsikeen 1137005166 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveIf you think FIST are pogs, or combat engineers, or EOD, you haven't spent enough time around them
By Towed_Jumper 1145992691 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveWhat are the odds that you aren't 11B? Pretty damn good . . . I'm not certain that I've ever met 11B who would lump FIST, boomers, or EOD with the crazies. Hell, in 7 years I've nary met one who even considered 11C to be one of us. There's a reason they end up as range control whenever we qualify.
If you've never had to run off some scrawny dude's -10 to keep from going calm . . . you might be a pogue. If a 240 is your dirtbike's engine instead of something you had to *@#% high crawl 300 meters with . . .you might be a pogue. If you think "turning blue" is what happens when you hold your breath . . . you might be a pogue. If you think a glass house is the name of a really good porn . . . you might be a pogue. If you think that "triple canopy" refers to the jungle . . . you might be a pogue. If you buy all your high-speed gear from the PX . . . you are DEFINITELY a pogue.
