Hey, not sure really where to put this post but ill put it here.

Not really sure if you guys know about this site but i was watching this video and thought it had some great shots of the a-10 firing its guns and some mavs. The movie is about 30 minutes long so if you have the time I would check it out. The Video also includes some -15 -16 and Buff and Bone shots (all are very good). Also the rest of the website has awesome videos, I also really like the F-14 Fighter Fling's (2004 was probaly the best one) some funny stuff in there.

Anybody know if the "Big Screen" in that video is actually a real screen? haha it just looks real fake to me, like they made a box and put the replay in it on some computer program.

That is the "Capstone" (or Firepower) video made by the USAF ever year. I didn't watch the video because I have copies but, I believe it was the 2000 or 2002 version.

Capstone is a firepower demo (and PR event) put on by the Air Force every year at Nellis AFB NV. If your military you can get a copy of this, and all the other firepower videos, from your base audio/video section.

Yes that screen is real and is placed by the bleacher so the people can see the "live fire" better or, they mix real weapons video during the live action going on in front of you.
