The AC-130's size and multi-engine design also make it a better bet for withstanding a Stinger hit, should they fail to spoof the missile.
Speaking of overwhelming firepower, does anyone know if we have A-10s deployed?

When the initial deployments were announced they said A-10s were deployed. However, I have not seen anything since then. Amazing, since they have been talking about retiring those for years. Guess you can't give up on something that works.

I don't think the A-10's would be very useful unless the Taliban has a number of tanks deployed, which I don't think is the case.
Each piece has its use. These C's look like they're doing the job that they need to do.
