This is a time lapse photo of a gunship hosing down a target. The aircraft flies in a precise arc and the gunner(s) can then obliterate whatever is within the arc. In this picture, the gunship is not hitting a single spot, but rather an area. The white stripe in the upper right shows you the track of the aircraft. The red curtain is the every-fifth-round tracer fire.

BTW, have only heard mention of 2 such gunships in area. Why not have 10-20 for afghan theatre!?
