Re: F-16 ordinance question

AN/AAQ-14 part of the LANTIRN system i think. The AN/AAQ-19 Sharpshooter i believe is a slightly cheap version with some capability deleted and was basically for export. I may be wrong but some one will put me right regards

Re: Caught by the AC-130!

40mm comes in a clip of 4 rounds on the initial order of load you can only put two clips in. Its impossibleto achieve that rate of fire. I think its a 20mm or a bushmaster
