1968 Film. Mostly Minigun firing and Gunship operations. Wish this video had sound. For those of us who fired them, the sound is unforgettable. Our SF brothers loved it too.

Переглядів 6 тис.4 роки тому
Official Air Force Training/Orientation film from 1970. Filmed at Hurlburt Field to train Aircrews prior to assigning them to the 20th SOS in Vietnam. Some of the equipment and tactics used here are different than those employed in actual combat in Vietnam. Still, the film has some interest and shows some aspects of Slick and Gunship operations with UH-1P Helicopters.

    When I learned about MACV-SOG. I learned about Colonel Fleming. As a combat Vet, what this man did is beyond extraordinary. Col. Fleming is the very definition of the American fighting spirit, patriotism and humility. What a great soldier and American. Thank you sir.

    What I like about this medal of Honor, is that everyone went home. Its not often where you earn the medal when things go well.

    2 x7.62 mini gins haha lmao. LRRP units were 40/60 chance of being deployed discreetly. Everybody can an incoming chopper, dont let the enemy have dogs You Are Screwed!!! What did SOG learn after Vietnam, we applied in the Iran Hostage FuBAr mission, We lost countless in the desert, by vietnam era hotshots trying to refuel and blowed up everybody. A gunship isnt for stealth infiltration, A gunship is for taking it to the Enemy Apopcalypse Now. With the little birds(loch) md500

    Capt. ret. USAF 20th SOS, 27th Spl Ops Wing, Nam 1970-73. I had no idea this video was even around! I grew up in N Central Illinois on a pretty big "Family Farm", my uncles ran a crop dusting business with Piper Pawnee's and surplus Korean War Bell 47 (aka H-13), and my father was a USAAC Fighter Pilot in the pacific; that was how I learned to fly. We applied "Crop Dusting" tactics in Nam and it was very successful with fixed wing AT-28 Trojans and Huey "Gunships" for ground attack.

    😍😍😍😍😍 First time I hear and see an unarmed Uh-1p. I did not understand why there were some armed with miniguns and others with one with only m-60. Those details are important for those of us who are modellers.👍 Thanks

      At the 20th we had both gunships with mini guns and rockets and slicks with M--60"s and rope ladders and McGuire or Stabo rigs.

      Hi Joey, No, this is at Camp Torres, also known as Ban Me Thuot East, which was the HQ of CCS. It housed 5th SF Recon troops and Green Hornet helicopters and FAC aircraft of 21st Tass.

    Too bad all of the footage of helicopters in flight are of US Army birds. I could be mistaken but I did not see on 20th SOS helicopter in the footage.

    We never used the locked forward fire position for the miniguns. This defeated the purpose of having gunners and a pintle mount giving almost 180 deg. of lateral gun cover. Slicks were always armed in Nam. Hey Hornets, I was a gunner 70-72. Hoo-Rah!
