#4  7.62mm Gatling gun, followed by 30mm cannon, then 2,75 inch rockets. That is a MH-60 Blackhawk gunship.

Later you seen MH-6 Little Bird gunships firing 7.62mm Gatling gun followed by 2,75 inch rockets.

#3  Experts, correct me if I'm wrong but by the sound, tragectory, and impact, it appears to be 20mm. Yes, they do explode on impact.

#2  Forgive my ignorance, but it looks like they fire machine guns - you see the tracers - but then there's a slight delay before the bullets seem to explode on the ground? Can someone help me out on what's happening there? Are those exploding bullets with some sort of fuse?

#1  Yeesh! Terrorist hell. Denial might work for Donks, but I don't see how terrorists can survive Six-plus minutes of that kind of firepower. Must not have been Palin on the trigger.
