just face it they are pure class have you seen films of the gunship version taking runs at this bunker the bunker was totaly dimolished after the first run.
the gunship ones have more guns then a big bag full of big guns. it tells me here in my book the the gunship version had [12]read it and droooooooooool [12] guns facing forwards all 50 caliber mechine guns it also had 2 in each turret.

That puny 75! The '25 was also fitted with a converted howitzer of 105, repeat 105, bloody milimetres.Someone claimed the plane stood still when it fired. Each shell was 21 inches long. The gunship had, in addition to eight nose-guns, two in the top turret, which could be fired forwards, and two more along the fuse under the cockpit. And, as if that's not enough: 10 5 inch rockets under the wings. Now, THAT'S what i call a ground pounder!IP: Logged |

Who'd need bombers in missions with an A-25 like that around? Need to take out a building or bridge? No problem, use the Mobile Artillery Platform. Oooo-eeee. Mk10=225th= IP: Logged |

Yes, that would be a great plane to have. I'm glad to see I am not the only one who wants this plane.
Been my favorite attack bomber ever since I was kid.
In my home town (San Angelo Tx.) there was a B-25 mounted on a 20' pedestal at Concho River Park. I use to beg my parents to take me down there to look at it all the time!
Needless to say, I would fly it constantly in SDOE.=Campaign For A Mitchell= -=BAB=- Gunner IP: Logged |

Asked for a B-25 for a long time, hope to see it. I have tons of photos as theirs one stationed 12 blocks away from my house at the Salem, Oregon airport. I get a ride J for helping the mechanics out as a gopher in my spare time. This weekend 06/10/00 there's going to be a Liberator and B-17 here with it!
Oh the sound they make hmmmm…Here a photo of my Dad at the shop hang out.
 hope I did this right...

Von, look for me this weekend. I'll be working the 8th AF Historical Society table for the Collings Foundation planes, most likely Sat. PM. I'll have a name tag if I'm just wandering around.Jerry Andrews IP: Logged |
