Surely there's only one Cyprus?

If you want a plane with a gun, you should check out the A-10, that thing means business.

More like 3,900 rpm now thats one powerful sucker, and to think it used to throw out 4,200

This Thread reminds me of that awesome Stormbirds Trailer. I cannot put into words how much I hate THQ for canceling it. Tu95 "Super Bear"?? and a fake'alike A-10 firing at 3900rpm X2!!!!!!!!!

And the Su-25 to balance out the a-10. It's not as heavily armed but it's a bit more agile. There's some great in-cockpit combat video of them in the recent Russo-Georgian war:

The computer voice reminds me of realistic mode, it keeps saying "maximum angle of attack" and "danger (low) altitude" over and over again, the pilot clearly ignoring it...

Doesn't mean 250,000 all at once, it counts the "black" as well as the fire itself. But it was the biggest that year... big fires like that crop up every few years in the US, mainly because of the lame-brained policy of putting out wildfires at all.

The ch-47's didn't do bucket drops, they used skycranes for that. Sikorskiys I think. What the chinooks did was drop us off in a big flat field they somehow found in the mountains, and then they dropped off MRE's there. I didn't like them. I got a sense like they were a death trap.

Well there's Cyprus the Island, Cyprus Hill the band, Cyprus trees, and somewhere in BC called Cyprus.

@ Roboslob: Dude, what are you doing with my backyard gatling gun? Also, where did you get the keys to my Bug! Are you trying to get me arrested by the CIA. I was trying to ship that over to Russia, so we Soviet's could take it and of course make it 10x better.
