Yeah, that's hilarious. There's no way to disguise an AC-130 gunship. It's not exactly a stealth airplane. It's more like the opposite of stealth. It's designed to be highly visible with awesome firepower to scare the daylights out of the enemy.

More likely it will scare the Shiite out of them.

Shalom.

Oh I dunno. If by 'stealth' you mean that the enemy can't see it, that definition fits the C-130 perfectly. I mean, how can the enemy possibly see what type of plane it is through all of that firepower?
