description: I shared a link to a graphic of the AC-130 gunship, noting my appreciation for its capabilities. This specialized ground-attack aircraft is a variant of the C-130 Hercules used for close air support and armed reconnaissance.

The [AC-130](http://news.yahoo.com/h/p/nm/20011017/ts/gunship_graphic.html) Sounds like a nice plane.
