I was thinking though that I should go with the GAU 8 from the thunderbolt II(Warthog) for forward defense.Depleted uranium bullets rock
the GAU-8 only fires 50 rounds a seond
but 50 rounds of 30mm U238 shells 
Problem with that is you couldn't shoot while driving and you'd have to have some mad brakes to hold you while parked. There's enough power in those bullets that if the plane had enough ammo and could continuously fire, it would stall.(guns) (getsome). But that just means we'd have to put a bigger engine in to compensate!!!zulu said:I was thinking though that I should go with the GAU 8 from the thunderbolt II(Warthog) for forward defense.Depleted uranium bullets rock
i've had that bug that hits right above the headlights and leaves a goo trail all the way up to the roof racks.
OF ALL THE PLACES IN THE WORLD DO BUGS NEED TO BE ON A HIGHWAY?
and the same goes for birds too, i dunno about you guys but little birds always fly in front of cars about a foot off the ground. some times you actually have to dodge them. not like they have the whole sky or anything!

The Phalanx CIWS system is what my dad worked on while he was in the navy. I've got a 3ft chain of empty rounds from one sitting around here somewhere. A definate 10 on the cool factor. They used to call them R2D2s. shackmgr6073

The craziest thing I ever had happen was the time I nailed a turkey vulture in my old Grand Am on a country road. It was the summer after I graduated high school and I was playing on a baseball team a few towns over. I was driving like 80 down the road cause I was gonna be late. I came over a hill and saw it, and it immediately started flying. The only thing is that when it started to circle back in I wasn't out of the way yet (still doin probaly 70+) That damn bird nailed me from the side and broke my antenna off and smashed in my passenger side window!! That scared the s*** out of me. I came to a stop and looked over only to see that damn vulture laying half in my window, and it was still moving!!! I freaked out and ran away from my car. I was only a couple miles from home so I decided I needed to go get my parents car, so I opened my trunk with my spare key that I kept in one of those magnet things, got out my baseball bat and knocked that damn thing out of my car. I drove home doing a full body shiver the whole damn way.
P.S. I know this story sounds like :bs: and my parents wouldn't beleive me till I showed them the spot on the road with shattered glass and a mutilated vulture on the side of the road.

holy sh!t!!! that's frickin' funny, but scary too! if i had a vulture hanging out my passenger side, i'd prob have the shivers too...
and regarding those little birds that fly 2 feet off the ground right in front of you, i'm guessing they're teenage birds and they do it for the adrenaline rush...
