It's in testing phase
Was in one last week
Shit blows needs tons and tons of mods
U and w are far better for their actual job
J has more power and distance but less firepower and isn't to gunner friendly in its current design

Weaponry and destruction is only part of war. The fact you don't understand that means you don't understand war.

Read the book and then think about what you've said. Then go tell your CO what you did so he can call you an idiot.

navyfag here, can you land that uglyfatas bird in my carriers?... NO

0/10

>>728843550
That's where you're wrong kiddo
Check out panama

>>728843386
As I said just the presence of a gunship changes their plans to nothing
No destruction or weapons
Sometimes the best weapon is fear it's self

>>728843646
lol im from there, tell me more about it...

because i ve never seen a fat dependapotamus USAF airplane landing in a carrier

>>728843550
https://youtu.be/ar-poc38C84

>>728844320
holy fuck, but we dont do that anymore, all our c130 stay ashore in squadrons, and i think is useless putting them in a/c carriers, small birds belong in there

>>728844290

While half right fear alone can only do so much.
Inevitably boots on the ground wins wars.

Men fight the war not the machinery.

>>728836486

>>728845247
There's really no need for them to be on carries due to they only fly in low threats
Also their distance is far better now

Interesting thanks
Is that an after-the-fact assessment or did your guys have live intel and we're told to stand down? I'm guessing upper echelon knew; just curious how far down the food chain intel gets shared if it's not going to receive direct action

>>728847288
I remember being at airborne with a bunch of real marines, marsoc/raiders
They hate faggots like you

>>728847491
After the fact for me
The crew on standby or orbit probably watched it

>>728836063
all military are pussies. the military is basically just advanced welfare

>>728847760
Thanks for your tax dollars while I get every federal holiday off and free health care

How long have you been apart of a gunship crew? Also fast would I get annihilated if I pointed a speed radar at an armed AC-130?

>>728838352
Because I am the water buffalo

>>728836063
Who does the targeting and firing?

>>728847654
That sounds like a shitty day

>>728848704
this needs to be answered
>the second part, duh

>>728848704
About 7 years
If they wanted to shoot you seconds
Them just flying around they're probably flash you wit radar to sterilize you then lights to blind you

>>728836063
Where do you piss on long missions?

>>728836063
Who is dumber:
ammo troops or security forces?

>>728848837
Pilot and other sensor people

>>728848837
And you can manually shoot it too

>>728849085
I was wondering about this. Must be some crazy gunsight

>>728848704
Actually another question, how many aircraft could a flying fortress like that feasibly hold off and survive?

>>728848839
The worst part is hearing people on the ground begging for their lives and some faggot general says no
Absolute worst part of the job
Especially knowing we could roll in and destroy almost anything in seconds

How did u like lackland afb i live right on the edge of base love seeing the c5 fly just a few hundred feet over my place

>>728849431
Rewording: How many missiles could your aircraft with stand without failing.

>>728838365
C130 not AC130! The C130 is a cargo or personnel carrier.

>>728849637
There's tons more the eye can't see

>>728849677
Depends where they hit
But everything on planes is triple and quadruple redundant
Wed be able to avoid quite a few of them for a while, but could take probably 2 and still land

>>728839094

War is simple; imma break it down for you:

Cuck A wants what Cuck B has;
Cuck B says "Keep away, it's mine";
Cuck A says "Imma just come get it";
Cuck B says "Bring it, nigga";
Cuck A sends lots of people who are no good at anything else except being told what to do to Cuck B's house;
Cuck B has his group of people who are no good at anything else except being told what to do to meet Cuck A's people;
*insert gunfire, bombs, dead niggas everywhere*
Cuck A still wants what Cuck B has;
Cuck B still won't give it to Cuck A;
*rinse - repeat*

Futile.

b) is it true that soldiers that should have returned home are staying indefinitely?
c) are you familiar with the rate of success target destruction on the tomahock missiles?
