A realistically-scaled, fully functional replica of the Lockheed AC-130 Gunship.

The AC-130 is a series of heavy support gunships developed from the C-130 transport plane during the Vietnam War as a replacement and upgrade to the AC-47 gunship.

The most well-known variant, the AC-130U, is armed with one 25mm GAU-12, one 40mm Bofors autocannon, and one M102 howitzer. Though other versions with different armament exist.

This rendition of the AC-130 is armed with the following weapons:

1. A Two-barrelled autocannon - A tandem-firing autocannon with a lava-veil that can be toggled.
2. A Six-barrelled barrage cannon. - For firing Splash Potions.
3. A Self-loading Howitzer / Cannon. - Has a maximum range of 100 blocks forward and 70 blocks downward.

NOTE: Due to an unknown bug, the propellant TNT in the howitzer may override the water's blast resistance and destroy the plane. This is likely due to the explosion physics or block properties being changed or working incorrectly in 1.8.4. This will likely be corrected in future updates.

Also included is an NPC Villager for rearming and reloading ammunition. Sells five ammunition types:

1. Arrows.
2. TNT. (For the Howitzer.)
3. Healing Ordinance.*
4. Gas Shells.*
5. Anti-Personnel Shells.*

*These are custom splash potions that have been stacked to 64, load these via SHIFT-CLICK only to avoid splitting them up.


IMPORTANT: Several blocks such as Stairs, Dispensers and Droppers may not rotate with the rest of the schematic if it is rotated, mirrored or flipped.

Place on airfields, in mid-air or over cities for best effect.

Not bad but the plane is too long overall and the landing gear isnt situated in the right place

Well, the plane is a fairly large design anyways. Adds to the imposing presence in the sky. I'm not sure how I built the landing gear in the wrong locations, but if you really want to talk about pieces in the wrong places, I'd say the door is.

The real AC-130 has the entry door on the left in front of the engines and props, but due to internal space constraints, the door was moved backwards behind the wing on my version.

At this point I'm just more worried about the cannon destroying the plane rather than minor innacuracies.

Thanks for pointing that out though.
