the one that has the 90 mm canon on board is called Spectre and is an AC 130
the one with "just" the 3 miniguns (no 90 mm) we used to call "Puff the magic dragon" back in 1968
I've seen Puff in action up close.
Hey Bob, I also remember seeing Puff the Magic Dragon working its' magic in "Nam and it was awesome! The bad guys didn't like them at all but couldn't do anything against them. (I loved watching them in action and even looking at them scared me!
