Actually, I wouldn’t mind a Грязев-Шипунов GSh-6-30.

I don't think I can say I have only one favourite aircraft.

"The gun was noted for its high (often uncomfortable) vibration and extreme noise.

The airframe vibration led to;

fatigue cracks in fuel tanks,

numerous radio and avionics failures,

thenecessity of using runways with floodlights for night flights (as the landing lights would often be destroyed),

tearing or jamming of the forward landing gear doors (leading to at least three crash landings),

cracking of the reflector gunsight,

an accidental jettisoning of the cockpit canopy and

at least one case of the instrument panel falling off in flight.

The weapons also dealt extensive collateral damage, as the sheer numbers of fragments from detonating shells was sufficient to damage aircraft flying within a 200-meter radius from the impact center, including the aircraft firing."

...so no drawbacks then

They say you’ll never understand someone until you’ve stood in their shoes.

I guess I’m starting to understand retail workers.

Is that awesome in the same way that the Mig25 was nearly as fast as the SR71 and could do Mach3.2?

...but it completely trashed the engines and they had to be replaced if they went that fast :Maud:
