The Seeker 3,048 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Not quite sure why they fired a .50 cal. The early models certainly the one Guy was working on had eight Browning .303's Later models did have cannon but I'm sure these were 20mm not .50 All the same great program, not sure how much of the old aircraft was used though as it did seem in a poor state. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
