These bad boys need to be in heavy rotation along the Iraq/Iran border.

With all due respect, these need to be installed NOW! But, for whatever reason, our civilian sector is still not on a war footing of any kind, otherwise we would be talking about the successes of these systems right now, instead of just supposing that it will work out.

I'm still pissed that we can't crank out 1500 armored humvees a week at the same time. If we are at war, we have to start acting like it!

In addition, because no other Air Force aircraft use the 25 mm cannon, no one is working on developing new types of ammunition that could be effective for gunship operations, he said.

Oops, better phone the boys over at Lockheed-Martin and tell them not to put that GAU 12/U 25mm into the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.
