Also showed an F-16 when talking about the F-4 Phantom and the nose mounted gun.

It may make it's mistakes, but i''d rather have the military channel than not.

I liked the one where they said the P47 was equiped with 8 50mm machine guns:O  When do we get THAT gun package???

Lets get rid of the 12.7mm guns on the thing already and go with the 50mm!!! I saw it on TV so it MUST be true right???

OK sarcasm turned off now.

I can't remember the title of the show, but they were discussing the
Japanese bombing the US invasion fleet off Guadalcanal while showing
a very well known clip of stukas hitting british convoys in the channel.

     I was wondering why the Japanese were using German airplanes to
attack the Brits over a year before they went to war with them. :D
