I loved hearing the A10's making gun runs.
I was stationed at several bases where, even miles away, you could clearly hear the roar of the gun.
The 20mm gatling guns sounded great too.
I compared the sound of those things, both the 30mm and the 20mm guns, as the "monsters roar" echoing through the forest.
It really does sound eerie, like a distant monster is coming to kill you.

Nice video, but I think some explosions were fake, but I think you've already seen that.
Too much movie-explosions with a lot af gasoline

Do we want anti-moderator conspiracy-theory trolls in this forum?

Edit - it appears not. Thanks, moderator...

The whole thing is impressive, but I really love the end when the bird splats on the windshield and the pilot's reaction. She obviously wasn't expecting that!

I don't expect the bird was either.

I've seen worse. Someone posted a pic on one of the forums of an eagle splattered on the rear cockpit bulkhead of a passenger jet.
