[@typical_idiot1]

This happens with most high-power guns and rotary autocannons. All of those fire supersonic rounds, meaning that if you hear any of them you're still alive.

[@vikingraider1961]

Interesting fact (well, I found it interesting...). If you look at the front of an A10, the gun appears to be slightly offset to one side. The reason is that the barrel that is firing is set to be directly in the centre of the aircraft, so the other barrels will be off to one side. This is because the recoil from that monster is so huge that, were it off to one side, it would cause the A10 to yaw when the gun was fired (damn thing had a recoil equal to the thrust of the engines).

[@legoferrari14]

The GAU-8 has to be fired in short bursts otherwise it will cancel out the aerodynamic lift of the A10 and cause it to plummet. That'd be like if a submarine's weapons were so powerful it'd threaten to compromise the integrity of the hull from pressure changes.

[@andrewhamop6665]

@@legoferrari14 Not entirely, the C revision of the A-10 included the upgraded avionics suite which has a cool little mode when you half depress the trigger. It essentially turns on a form of autopilot which compensates for the recoil when firing the main gun, basically locking your aircraft onto whatever you were targeting when the trigger is half depressed. Source: I fly the A-10 in DCS: World, which is a 1:1 arial combat sim.

@@andrewhamop6665 The GAU-8 is still really inaccurate at normal combat range even with that upgrade which is why precision bombs and missiles have accounted for a huge majority of the A10's kills throughout its service life.

Maybe more spread is required, grouping is too tight. Other than that it's the sound of victory

[@Niitroxyde]

It was designed to take out armored vehicles. So less spread is better, you want to repeatedly punch that armor until it breaks out. One shell probably won't be enough, but a few hundreds in a couple of seconds, definitely. Even though a plane is moving and shaking, so I doubt the grouping would actually be the same as in a firing range environment anyway. Not to mention you'd fire it from hundreds of meters away in a combat scenario, not a 50m range. You can see it later in the video when they fire it from the actual plane. The spread is much more pronounced.

[@kingqbert6819]

They also have explosive rounds for personnel.

The gun uses both API and HEI rounds. Which can obliterate Armor and Infantry alike. No it doesn't just switch ammo like some arcade games, it has both, holds both. 30x173mm are the rounds size.

What's the targeting system on the Warthog? Is it the pilot with a sight reticle or is there something more advanced?

[@my9thaccount140]

I wondered why the A10 was getting phased out. After all it’s the perfect option for close air support. Lots of ammunition and multiple places to mount various kinds of ammo. It’s a win win right? Then I looked at the friendly fire statistics, looked at the Vulcan again and immediately understood the logic. It kills to be sure. Problem is it doesn’t always kill what you want it to.

[@tristanb.3470]

That's almost entirely pilot error, it's not like the gun is choosing its own targets.

[@mr.jamrob4505]

They've tried to phase it out purely to put in newer projects to justify military spending budget Any other excuse you hear is bullshit

[@mr.jancok4413]

@@mr.jamrob4505 as far as I know one of the reason why they tried to replace the A-10 is because close air support aren't as effective as it used to be, A-10 with it's full load can take out any ground targets but if the enemy have any air defence A-10 most likely wont last long, it happen to Su-57 in Ukraine they can't even get close to the front line due to heavy air defence from both side, as so USAF develope F-35 that can do ground support and also can defend itself

the coolest thing about this aircraft "and the cannon" is that they are so cool that the sound is delayed 😎

[@typical_idiot1]

the sound is delayed because of speed of sound, how do you not know this? Also, the first sound is the shells hitting the ground and the humming sound after is the gunfire. However, note that this will also happen with most autocannons that have supersonic ammunition.

Now that you mention it, the A-10's Gau does kinda sound like it's farting out bullets. Makes it all the more terrifying, and crudely humorous.

[@Astrobrant2]

What's cool about watching most of these clips is that you usually hear two sets of bursts. The first one you hear is actually the rounds hitting the ground or target. The second, quieter, smoother one you hear is from the gun firing. In most cases, cameras and microphones are much closer to the target than they are to the plane, so it takes longer for the sound from the plane to get to the microphones.

[@thatrandomerfromhudds7478]
