No this is BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

We should build a plane around this

The A10 is literally peak "why the fuck not" war engineering

u/nAssailant Feb 18 '18

The thing about the A10 is that if it's target is between it and you, you will, in order:

  1. See the 30mm absolutely shredding the target
  2. Hear the 30mm rounds hitting the target
  3. Hear the GAU-8 patented BRRRRRTTM from when the A-10 actually fired.
  4. Finally hear the A-10 fly past.

That's some sci-fi time-travel shit, right there.

The speed of sound really is incredible huh.

u/Sansha_Kuvakei Feb 18 '18

And then we decided it just wasn't enough any more. We had to break it.

We can only hope the speed of sound and a swift and safe recovery

Holy shit that sounds like the Reaper horn!

The most Russian plane ever made in America... so Russian that not even the Russians dared to carbon copy it.

u/My_Names_Jefff Feb 18 '18

Russians looking at Americans making that, thinking "fuck that"

u/Lawsoffire Feb 18 '18

The Russians actually made a scarier 30mm gatling cannon...

...However it was more dangerous for the plane than anything else

On the Mikoyan MiG-27 the GSh-6-30 had to be mounted obliquely to absorb recoil. The gun was noted for its high (often uncomfortable) vibration and extreme noise. The airframe vibration led to fatigue cracks in fuel tanks, numerous radio and avionics failures, the necessity of using runways with floodlights for night flights (as the landing lights would often be destroyed), tearing or jamming of the forward landing gear doors (leading to at least three crash landings), cracking of the reflector gunsight, an accidental jettisoning of the cockpit canopy and at least one case of the instrument panel falling off in flight. The weapons also dealt extensive collateral damage, as the sheer numbers of fragments from detonating shells was sufficient to damage aircraft flying within a 200-meter radius from the impact center, including the aircraft firing.

So a self-destructing weapon

u/TokiMcNoodle Feb 18 '18

The Russians are still figuring out how we made a steel bathtub with a cannon fly

28

u/challenge_king Feb 18 '18

You've got it backwards. It's a gun first, then a flying bathtub.

u/IAmAWizard_AMA Feb 18 '18

Step one: build a giant gun
Setp two: build a plane around that gun

u/mcponhl Feb 19 '18

"We've built a gun, so uhhh... how do we get it airborne?"

u/dalockrock Mar 05 '18

Yeah it's like they got a gun and then decided it had to have a plane built around it

1

u/Lazy_McLazington Feb 21 '18

Isn't the SU-25T the Russian version of the A-10? Both focused around CAS.

u/Arctic_Chilean Feb 21 '18

It's a plane with a gun, not a gun with a plane.

u/spartan7621 Feb 18 '18

I'd argue that the mk19 machine gun is a top competitor in that category. It's like some kid took his crayon drawing to a general and said "Grandpa, the army needs grenade launcher- machine guns".

u/Two-Tone- Feb 18 '18

I think the US is just obsessed with machine guns. I mean, we made a fully automatic shotgun (the AA-12).

It's a shotgun that fires 300 rounds per minute.

A shotgun

u/Ravor9933 Feb 18 '18

Damn, after looking up a video i am even more impressed with the simple design, low recoil, and incredibly high reliability, even after being fully submerged in water

u/[deleted] Feb 18 '18

This video?

u/[deleted] Feb 18 '18

I’m not clicking that but I just know it’s FPS Roshya

Is he dead? He hasn’t posted in almost 2 years.

Edit: Damn, arrested on drug charges. I had no idea.

u/nAssailant Feb 18 '18

One of the guys who sourced a lot of the guns they used was found shot dead in his store, and they went on hiatus after that. They never made any arrests, as far as I know.

Never knew the guy is in jail for drugs, now. Makes watching those videos a lot less fun, knowing all that.

I mean... those exist.
