Bronezhilet Posted October 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 @N-L-M@Collimatrix Spoiler Presentation about big caliber guided shells from an AC-130. This isn't the complete presentation but I wasn't going to screencap and upload 52 sheets. This is most of the interesting stuff anyway.

TokyoMorose Posted October 5, 2018 Report Share Posted October 5, 2018 @Bronezhilet - I have to admit, I'm very curious as to why they didn't simply mount the 120mm mortar system instead of converting the 105mm gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AC-130 uses the M102 Howitzer so I guess that if they wanted to do in-flight tests it would be a lot easier to do since you can use the exiting mounting system.

Belesarius Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 Seems like an eminently sensible idea to me. 120mm mortars have plenty of proven and in progress technical options for PGM use, and a 120mm mortar can hit pretty hard.
