Nice video.
But is it really an A-10 that is shooting? Because it looks like the cam stand so still to watch and zoom and kill.

Dutchy,

I suspect it was a UCAV doing the filming.

On a separate note, it was fortunate for the A-10 that the road was somewhat curving, because otherwise, the Taliban would likely have outrun him. :wink:
