Inside US Billion $ Facility Repairing A-10’s Scary GAU-8 Cannon 

This is my first time seeing the actual innards of the ammo drum and that in itself is incredibly fascinating!

These technicians are the USAF Armourers power to them. I was in the RAF as an Armourer working on the Harrier GR3 in the 70s and 80s. We were called Plumbers because our trade would be the one working on the turrets with hydraulics for power and also the Lewis gun which was cooled by water pipes, when it sprang a leek guess who they called. Yep the plumbers. Best years of my working life we changed jobs and a/c every three years we did notice the USAF Armourers got trained and staid doing the same job for years. Pass it on

I am amazed at how light the gun is. That is a great piece of design work .

Totally enthralling! It's unexpectedly fascinating and captivating.

A10 ตัวอันตรายในสนามลบ❤❤❤

Army usa best in the world, power and strong and number one

I like this factory

Красиво на картинке идет подготовка к разминированию. Другое дело когда тебе этого не дают сделать. Физически..

Spa day for BRRRRRT.

Wow ❤❤❤

If I wanted to read, I would get a book. Videos should be narrated.

Wow.high tech.

this is where the BRRRRRRRRTTTTTT was born.

This is my bad ass love this dnt play

Did anyone see the marine fast roping out of the Stallion. They had to of broke their tail bone at a minimum. Kinda gave me black hawk down flash backs.

Yeah ok wow. Let's solve hunger.

Long live the A10:)

Imagine if this is not called terrorism

Question - Why call it a GAU-8 if there are only 7 barrels and why are the internal workings referred to as VULCAN (Ya, I've heard Avenger). I fly these daily;}

Wait, how old is this?? ABUs AND Paper T.O.s?? I haven’t seen a paper T.O. Since 2012.

Is there a scarier or more effective weapon than this cannon??? What a beast.

Brrrrttt....

USA's old-style 20th Century Gatling Gun 7 barrel low 4,200 rounds per minute 600 rounds per minute per barrel 10 rounds per second per barrel rotation USA hasn't improved it much in the 21st Century other's modern Gatling Guns have much higher rates of fire

would be nice if someone would narrate these videos. so i can watch the beautiful footage and not have to read at the same time. lol

Il sottofondo musicale è in appropriato

Didn't retire it and we now useing it in syria

Por que, pedir paz se asenal é prioridade nos paises do mundo???😢😢

Une question : est-ce que si l'installation ne coûte que 500 millions $, ils ne peuvent pas réparer le canon ... ?

❤🇺🇸

A-10이 아니고 AC-130 건십 아닌가요? Not A-10, It explain about AC-130 Gunship

I heard that pilots said this plane was amazing to fly ?

All this Gatling/ammo drum/linkless feed stuff started at summer's end in 1961. We weapons mechanics at Spangdahlem AFB in Germany knew that the brand new F-105D fighters coming to replace our trusty F-100s were going to be a big change for us. We were pretty much gobsmacked when we got a look at the complexity of the gunnery system, and then there was the bomb bay and bomb rack actuator that could throw a 2,000 lb bomb clear of the airplane at 600 mph, just like an empty beer bottle thrown from a speeding car. Being a totally new concept in gunnery, the linkless feed system was bound to have teething problems, and it did. Not only would the system jam when firing was attempted, it would jam when ammo was being loaded and sometimes even when the system was being slowly rotated for maintenance. Invariably with a jam there would be internal damage, and we quickly learned that the only effective fix was to remove the entire system--gun, ammo drum, transfer unit, exit unit, entry unit, and all the chutes and conveyer elements, all still holding ammunition, take it all to the shop, disassemble, inspect, and test every last part, make the necessary repairs and replacements, and reassemble it to put back in the airplane with timing pins in place. Many changes had to be made before the system became usable. If the work we did had not helped to uncover the problems, the F-105 would have been nearly defenseless when it was sent to Vietnam a few years later.

Jajajaja el soldado que se bajó por la cuerda del helicóptero calló con el trasero en el suelo . 😂

u know your military is bad when u are on youtube showing China or Iran to back engineer a A-10 gatlin gun

Scariest gun in the world. 30mm depleted uranium rounds at 3900 rounds per minute. The enemy RUNS when they see the A-10, not because they are scared of the slow moving jet with poor maneuverability but because they know that jet has this gun and the pilots are surgical with it.

Who is killd ? Innocent person or ..

How did we go from the a 10 to everything else?But the a ten in this video what a joke

bakit hindi pa ginawang 1,200 rounds bakit 1,174 lang? ang weird! 😆 😂 😆 😂

the gun install look much easier that M61A series, that I installed in a few different planes. With that said.......... Billion $ Facility🤨 Get The Fu*k Out of Here with that Bull Sh*t!!!😏

we still only have these caveman methods to clear minefields ? seriously ?

美帝牛逼

All these jobs (and more) GONE after AI's like Chat or Ernie take over. Gentlemen this could happen in 1/2 yrs....watch your 6 for your family. THINK AHEAD or be left behind. Love 2 all!! SOI

A-10만 있는게아닌데 제목도 참 거지같이 달았네 그냥 만화제목을 달지

Байден неофашист

i thought they retired the a-10

F35 who????
