If you don’t include the GAU-8 Avenger, you probably want to rebuild the Berlin Wall.

There’s one here in the Museum next to the A-10. Mother of god, that thing is big.

The stats for that thing all sound like myths. Things like so much mass/momentum pushed forward when firing that they need full throttle to prevent the plane from stalling. True? False? Wouldn’t be surprised either way.

It’s not murican enough until it’s mounted to the side of a plane. So you can do drive-bys on the enemy.

From wiki:
The A-10 engines were initially susceptible to flameout when subjected to gases generated in the firing of the gun. When the GAU-8 is being fired, the smoke from the gun can make the engines stop, and this did occur during initial flight testing. [2] Gun exhaust is essentially oxygen-free, and is certainly capable of causing flameouts of gas turbines . The A-10 engines now have a self-sustaining combustion section. When the gun is fired the igniters come on to reduce the possibility of a flameout. [20]
The average recoil force of the GAU-8/A is 10,000 pounds-force (45 kN), [3] [21] which is slightly more than the output of each of the A-10's two TF34 engines of 9,065 lbf (40.3 kN). [22] While this recoil force is significant, in practice a cannon fire burst slows the aircraft only a few miles per hour in level flight. [20]

The M777 is from the UK though.
