There were many variants, but I still remember the gunship "Puff" as in "Puff the Magic Dragon" from the song of that era.

In a twist of fate, a stateside high school chum had sent me a Popular Science magazine with Puff on the cover, and the article on the technology of a motorized Gatling gun mounted on the AC-47.

And I did love that song as a child. - Dates me, doesn't it? 8^)
