Apache versus IED emplacers in Afghanistan

Its going to be common in Afghanistan as the Taliban keeps using IEDs and the response is more Predator and Apache attacks on such units.

Awesome video. But what's up with the gunner not compensating for the drop? That 20mm gun was hitting low. Oh well, those IED planters were Toast before the gun was used.

One of my favorite videos was the AC-130 Spectre Gunship attacking a Taliban base camp. Awesome used of superior firepower.

If I find that video, I'll post it.

Well the gun isn't exactly a sniper rifle. Its a lot tougher than it looks when shooting from a fairly far distance in a moving helo going pretty fast.
