Don’t bring a bike to a gunfight

1. Looking at the rounds impaction, in a wide swath, left to right, rather than a long linear path, I wonder if this was an AC-130 doing the deed, rather than an A-10?

2. I’m actually thinking it was a cluster bomb.

   But “Don’t bring a bike to a bombfight” just isn’t as snappy.

3. Yep, looks like CBU to me.

4. I was looking at the title, A-10 Destroys Fleeing Insurgents. The bursts do look rather large for 20MM.

5. Well, I think it’s a CBU, and from the gimballing of the picture, the footage clearly comes from a targeting pod of some sort, such as a Sniper or LANTRIN, but other than that, I can’t really say what type of bird it is.

6. I agree, it isn’t the first time that something has been mislabelled on the web.

7. http://xkcd.com/386/

8. Haha, I want to show this to all my European friends.

   “See kids? Real countries with real militaries use cluster munitions.”
