You can run, but you can’t hide from an A-10 Thunderbolt II and its massive GAU-8 30mm cannon will leave a mark that won’t buff out.
U.S. Air Forces Central Command released full motion footage of an engagement betwixt an A-10 and what the service described as “a Taliban vehicle fleeing the scene of an attack in Kandahar.”
The short video shows a light-colored economy car beating feet down a dusty desert road only to be stopped by a string of 30mm rounds from the A-10. Zooming in on the stopped vehicle shows four basketball-sized holes punched in the top of the vehicle before another line of shells is applied for good measure. Although there is no sound in the footage, which has been redacted for operational security, just imagine lots of low “brrrrt” as 30mm foot applies to ass.
According to Centcom, the Taliban-mobile wasn’t out on an afternoon drive in the country looking for an aloha snack bar. “The insurgents in the vehicle were armed with a DShK heavy machine gun, which they had been using to attack the Afghan people,” said the Air Force.
The GAU-8/A, made by General Electric, is a 19-foot long 7-barreled rotary cannon that fires huge 30x173mm
