Re: Assault lander philosophy

Los, Thanks for the info... just one point. I've worked with and on the 
AC-130. No transport is that thing. It can, (and does :o) carry ammo,
and 
maintenance folks to the operations area, but only a few of each. (We 
"crowded" one coming back to Hurby after a Hurricane, and we had 8 maint
plus 
the crew. As for cargo we had about enough room for the personnel bags
and 
two crew tool kits)
Operations there is ONLY the crew. It's an attack asset.
