This is a WarLeaks video of multiple A-10 Warthog runs using the GAU-8 Avenger 30mm cannon. Call me odd, but hearing the rounds impact the target and then the Brrrrrrrrrrt is an adrenaline rush for me.

if You'd load the video link nxt time,that'd be great kthx...lol
That avenger cannon is no joke.We had a A10 doing CAS for us on a position north of us about 1000m. Due to wind-drift,etc,His casings kept raining down on us on our positions. We could FEEL the impacts of the rounds over 1000m away...just turned the area into a dusty hell for about 5min after 3 runs.Funnily enough,we found 6 blood lines, 4 enemy KIA and one VERY disabled Zsu-22 *Zeus* AAA weapon. By disabled,I mean it had multiple through/through rounds to the barrel/body...The impact craters in the ground from the 30mm were amazing..LOVE that weapon for CAS work.Only thing I like better doing CAS is either a couple Rotor-heads w/rockets-chain gun or a Spectre about 6k ft,raining steel n lead down in a curtain of democracy,freedom,and hellfire..'MURICA...er,sorry...my bad... ahem..

Bye the looks of it , THIS is the ground attacker Rubble needs instead of the P47's
The first time I ever saw an A10 in action was when I was in Irag and we had a bunch of insurgents in a building we couldn't get to. We called for an air strike and along came the A10. My Lt. told me to just watch and listen for the Fart as he called it. That A10 made 2 passes with that gun and there was NOTHING left in that building.LOL
I cant believe we almost got rid of that thing.
