I do know that,
I don't know why I put 50cal, I must been thinking of other stuff when I wrote it! I know air planes, not an expert on all weapons, just know the ones I have, and not an expert on them! I have built many dummy scale guns and missiles (some that actually lanch) for planes I have built.
I'm more interested in the way the complete plane is designed, most of the left & right side parts are interchangable, the offset front gear(because of the cannon) makes tighter right hand turns then left hand, the fact that the plane was designed around the gatling cannon, which was orignally a 2 speed gun and then changed to a set speed , but takes a second to come up to speed. The way the wing is honey comb and skinned so that it can take hits and not fold a main spar as in basic aircraft, it has a tub around the 5' drum that holds 1,200 -1,500 shells to protect them from hits which would explode if hit. That it only flew just under 350 mph and as slow as 125mph. It's large tires so it could land & take off on rough ground, like the Jaguar, as most jets had weak landing gear, and it's ailerons were out and large for better & quicker control, the high ratio lift wings made it able to fly slower, unlike that of most jets that have a thin wing (low ratio) which needs speed to keep in the air and fly faster. And the shark teeth design they used on the A-10 were put on everything from cars to pistols.

No! I did not look up this stuff on the internet, I don't need to! I read books on all the planes I build, I build them as close to scale as I can.
