Those pictures are jokes...literally, figuratively. Even then crew chiefs and pilots had a sense of humor. There were some systems developed by Hughes Tool which were tested but never adopted by the Army. They included a single 7 tube pod (XM157) for the 2.75" FFAR (might not arm due to short engagement ranges), a Ma Deuce under the belly and my personal favorite, a belly mounted flame thrower. Coulda got some mileage out of that one.  There was a minigun system used commonly by Scouts but it was a fixed mount on the left side capable of elevation transit only. Dance on the pedals for windage and running targets. I used them sparingly until later in the fracas when we dispensed with the observer in the left seat and went with Mini and gunner in the back. It was a weight thing mostly. If it were real, which it isn't, the bird in the bottom pic would never get off the ground. Each of the rocket pods, loaded, would weigh between 500 and 700 pounds and the 40mm chunker turret on the nose with ammo would weigh about the same. Also, there was no structure on the nose of the aircraft which could support anything like that.
I am..........disturbed.

Uh, we don't hyphenate "air-conditioning" over here.
We do hyphenate people however. Fair enough...it was either air-con or air-conditioning....hyphens included. Here it is written either way. ps, including air conditioning and airconditioning. My spell checker says that's all wrong. We tried to teach y'all English... Wonderin' if you folks hyphenate azzhole? Bloody silly Yank...its ARSEhole. [bleep] is on the western end of an ass.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Rules update:
Rules.
1. No [bleep] midget hookers on "the property". (Use and discard as per whim is more easily arranged at their business.)
2. No "Surprise" on fellow attendees.........while upright and awake. If passed out this becomes a judgement call.
3. First one that pukes....loses. See rule #2. Grease up accordingly.
4. What happens in Florida......is reported on 24hourcampfire.
5. Ingwe must give BGG a lap dance nightly in his leopard print thong.
6. Anyone that pisses in the crisper drawer in the fridge, or on a carpet, OR uses newspaper to wipe his ass, had to GFH with a rubber fist, mounted on a Sawzall
7. You will not drink, but if you do;
You will not get drunk, but if you do;
You will not pass out, but if you do;
You will fall on your face so nobody can recognize you for the lightweight you are and so the rest of us have plausible deniability.
Feel free to add your prospective rules for consideration by the moderater.
