I can only imagine the morale boost and grin factor after a fire fight gets turned around favourably after calling in those AC47 "Puff"s.....

Northern had a great Avatar of one letting loose....

Hearing the The Stones "Satisfaction" always reminds me of a film sequence where some M60 in a DC 10 comes in with suppressive fire....now if the budget could have afforded a "Puff"....that would have been a hell of a scene...

Nearest comparable for me was our Sea Harriers during the Falklands....not quite the same....but a welcome sight at the time....
