    Ok, so I was surfing around the net today, and I saw a lot of really cool pictures of weapons used by all sorts of different countries, and I thought I'd share them with you! :D I hope you enjoy them.

    USS Cole Playing a game of "Piggy-back"
    Tomahawk cruise missile escorted by F-14
    Where'd that come from?
    Marines launch a Stinger anti-aircraft missile at a target
    An F-22 Raptor fighter jet fires a sidewinder.
    A Cobra attack helicopter releases a fart (I mean 'flare') in training exercises. :p
    Patriot missile launch
    An F-117 drops a bunker buster during a testing mission at Hill Air Force Base, Utah.
    Evening Flight
    Marine fires an AT-4 light anti-tank weapon during a skirmish.
    Demonstration of a Soviet-made RPG-7
    A U.S. Navy "Zippo" flamethrower is tested from a patrol boat.

    That's all I have found as of right now, but I'm looking for more pictures of weaponry (wether it be missles, aircraft, guns, or the like), I'm also looking for pictures of these "weapons" in action. :rolling:

    Yeah, because that's what the world needs. More methods of killing people.

    I used that word for a reason. A figter jet, a tank, a sub, a missile, and a bomb could all be considered a weapon.

    I didn't start this thread to start a debate on weapons and thier uses (so stuff it BA :p ), I'm looking for these "weapons" in action...the fighter jet escorting a cruise missile is a perfect example of what I'm looking for. Something unique. You don't see a jet flying side by side a missile every day...

    So as per my request, If any of you have any "cool" pictures of Military vehicles (ships, subs, tanks, trucks, jets, helicopters, ect), Weapons (bazookas, RPGs, Stinger Missile Launchers, guns of any shape, size, or caliber), or Ordnance (missiles, "smart" bombs, "dumb" bombs, or a really big shell) that's in action, I would like to see them.

    If you want to complain about how these things are bad...then start a new thread in the AoDA...this is more of a "slide show" of sorts showing what these things look like in action... :rolling:

    T2Bruno, that was friggin' AWSOME! :eek: :thumb: :eek:

    See people, *that* is what I'm looking for! :bigeyes:

    Loerand, that's pretty cool too (and had some pretty good music in the begining), but I'm looking more for still photos. Besides, watching the Gattling Gun attached to the A-10 'Warthog' is a lot cooler (for lack of a better term) then those "little" Gattling Guns...oh, and all I saw were regular millitary transport helicopters...I was looking for an Apache, but failed to see one... :bad: :rolling:

    Classic is good, but I think they wouldn't hold up against these

    Here are some more I found...
    F-117 Dropping two smart bombs
    Similar to T2's photo (just a hell of a lot bigger)
    Apache Attack Helicopter at sunset
    Patriots in Action
    an old ship with new tricks
    Same old ship, with more firepower
    Jets aren't the only ones that can fly...errr, sail in formation...
    An aircraft carrier going a little too fast around a corner
    Russian 'Lance'
    Don't know if it's real, but looks cool

    That's all for now...I'm still waiting for the rest of you guys to chip in some good pics! :rolling:

    I used that word ("wepon") for a reason as well. I can see that you changed the topic so it worked ;) :p

    What is it with boys and their fascination with things that go boom?
