This is live footage from an attack on an Afghanistani terrorist base not too long ago. It is truly awesome the firepower that the Americans have at their disposal. Only for people with a fast connection I suspect.

ok - I already sussed that I needed the divx codec - but thanks - yup cool footage. If you watch carefully one of the "enemy" chaps gets blown to several large pieces that fly about 200ft

Nice !

Let's hope the ******* can stick to using it on the enemy.


Far too many 'friendly fire' casualties caused by the yanks. IMHO of course

Why didnt they just use a cannon or machine gun to pick off the few stragglers. That one guy who ran off to the west needed about 10 bombs before he got hit. Now I know where my tax money goes - 1 kill = 10 x £100,000.

Armament:

AC-130H/U: 40mm cannon and 105mm cannon;

I went to an internet (broadband) cafe to watch this this morning.
Well worth it! Is super sis' video the same as the first? Just in a different code?
