The new AC-130W which was in use in RC(E) when I was there doesn't even have a 105 anymore. That's all cool stuff but pointless in reality. In fact unless the 130 is already on target 9 times out of 10 the JTAC is calling in the AWT for CAS in a JAAT with A-10s. That was my experience in Mountain warfare in RC(E).
Yeah, this was back in 04. I don't know the exact model they were using then. It was during the battle of Fallujah so they were just circling overhead all night begging for targets.

My boy said when he was in Iraq the chick was talking to the JTAC telling him we are your air support the next few hours. Asked him if they wanted to hear tunes over the mic and he said everytime the JTAC mic'd up you could hear let the bodies hit the floor in the background playing in the aircraft.
