I googled: Type 3 suspension rubbers, chose images, and on page 5, saw this pic.
A beetle parked next to the GUN on an A10.

Awesome stats on that gun and cool pic, but the real question is, WTH does that have to do with type 3 suspension rubbers?

LOL, you never know!

Actually, it might be part of the suspension to carry the ammo. They go through 3000 pounds of ammo in 10 - 12 seconds on a sustained burst!!! :shock: Bullets the size of old school milk bottles!

If you read the thread, the A10 loses several knots airspeed when they open fire, how scary is that?!?!

American A10 gunship.

Tankbuster. A mean mother of an airplane. Old but still deadly.

The A10 was involved in the "friendly fire" incident where the US A10 shot a British tank and crew to pieces in Iraq.
