Anyone who was there know:

1. If the 7.62 miniguns were carried or not? I assume "or not."

2. If the A-models had IRSS tubs?

3. If the AVQ-8 and LAU-74 were carried? I suspect "no" and "maybe" respectively.

4. How much 105mm ammo the forward and aft racks could carry, each?

(Yes, I know racks are normally left-right, but work with me...)

5. Were the depression and lag adjusted for the 40s and 105mm for different altitude/bank/speeds?

6. One H-model redeployed the day before Spirit 03 was lost, was this for PDM?

7. Were the A-models deployed in response to this or was their deployment planned earlier?

Thanks!
