The way the gun sounds is hilarious, but I'd guess that it isn't so funny for those in its path.

I love the sharks teeth marking, especially on A10s. They do carry quite a piece of kit...

I take it the chrome barrels in the first shot are for display only! :)

Awesome aeroplane. Saw quite a lot of them last year at Barksdale AFB. I would have been in awe at the number of them, if I hadn't already been in awe at the number of B-52s! ;D
