Oh sweet summer child,only one plane ussed the mighty BRRRRRRT. The A-10 thunderbolt. One of my personal favorites. She was actually designed around the weapon.

Firing 30mm rounds of depleted uranium at a maximum of 4,500 rounds per minute, this is what the nightmares of Soviet-Era tanks are made of. This weapon and the A-10 were designed specifically to strafe ground armor, and come out roaring victory.

It's also great at close air support. This is the plane you want to tell you danger close.

For stupid reasons, the Air Force has tried to get rid of the A-10 several times over the decades. They should consider updating it instead.
