    Wrooooooooong…But ok. Morters AND Artillery do it. its not based on anything specific. A whiffle Ball makes that sound. A bat. Its the air / heat that causes the air to displace that zooms back , creating that sound. Thats the simple version. Its not post production, it makes that sound. If you don’t believe it, join the military, go stand between the guns and the target, and hear the whistle. Its more high pitched and more of a whistle than that. Its the camera mic that s it up.

    This is what our brave men and women actually go through in Iraq. This is not fake.

    the camera man clearly wasn’t there

  20. And, at least in …
    And, at least in the marines, the calculations and tools used is very accurate. Now add the fact that a 155 regular HE round, with a time fuse set for 20m above the deck, you have a 50mKILL radius. Add in all the other destuctive goodness after that. RAP(rocket isted projectile) rounds are used quite often and were used OIF 1 a lot. I can read wikipedia too, but its not good to sound liek you are omnipotent when those in know are around. Oh and average flight time for a round is 13 seconds.

  21. But lets also add …
    But lets also add the fact that you have NO idea what type gun is shooting. It could be a paladin, m198, or m777. M198′s are still used and have pretty much the same distance. And the maximum range is actually still accurate, but mostly used for planned fire suppression missions. Military uses a degree system call Mils, 6400 mils to a circle. When doing calculations 1 mil off the actual target, at 1000m, is 1m on the deck. So if you fire 40km out, and are 1 mil off, you’re 25 meters off.

  22. Well actually good …
    Well actually good sir. Muzzle velocity is dependant on the type of powder and how many charges they put in. Also what the weight of the round is. Standard round is a smidge under 100lbs, average muzzle velocity is 627m/s. More than likely the battery is station 7-9km out, as the rounds appear to be coming in at a high angle(not an actual high angle shot). Meaning the round will spend more time in the air than a direct show, allowing for more time for sound to catch up.

  23. wow that is really …
    wow that is really ing cool
    and scary
