An explicitly detailed accounting of an American AC-130 Specter Gunship, operational attack on Islamic beligerants, apparently in Afghanistan, post 911. The footage is captured via a thermal imagery spotting camera, and records in very good detail the massive assault on a pre-identified enemy position. This footage appeared available on various Internet sites in 2002-2003. This version is 163mb in .mpg format; Very high resolution for thermal imagery; esspecially when you consider the operating altitude of a AC-130 Spectre Gub Ship.
