Mommy! I want a Hind for Christmas!

Also, did they even have a gunner operating the turret-mounted cannon? It looked to me like they mainly fired rockets and the 240s/FN MAGs/whatever they were in the doors.

I can imagine it not being that easy to find ammo for that cannon...a bit overkill anyway I think. Also, that thing looks rather kick-ass. I sure as hell wouldn't want to fight it.

Awesome!

if you want a book to read about it look for one called 'operation certain death'. it has all the feets of this man, i think he once flew something like 20 missions a day. I also think this man is justified because the RUF are a nasty bunch, torturing civilians and drugging and raping every women or girl they see, mainly because the are fed a constant concoction of drugs.

Royal Irish Regiment fellas were held, not paras

I wondered about the nose gunner too but I thought it was lack of ammo and probably maintenance issues.

What is wrong with a one world government ?
Do you think we are going to be able to continue to squabble like children for another hundred years ?
One freedom fighter w/ a suitcase nuke and it all comes tumbling down so if it takes private contractors to do what the UN is already paying and being paid to do then that is a good thing.

I would think that the optics for the nose gunner would be very valuable on those missions and there must be a good reason they are not using them.
Probably money.

It would also make it easier for aliens to contact us, since contacting one would piss off a few other countries who will then blow each other up over a hissy fit.

You see ?
There is always a silver lining.
But I think it's too late for that since the aliens have clearly infiltrated the UN
