I'd pay money to see an AC-5 in action, but I'm not holding my breath.

Making an AC-5 might be a good example of the precept that just

But I'd like to see it in action, too.


Of course, you could mount pretty much *anything* in one of those.
GAU-8s,


The old 105mm tank main guns now tanks have gone to 120mm.
Wait a minute, which tube was the Copperhead guided round for,

No sense being shy about it.

a small AWACS-type
