First of all if were airforce, I'd be ROFLMAO over how long it took those guys to hit the first one. They'd all be dead about ten times over if it had white ones on the rails. Secondly I am in awe of the sheer amount of money that took. .50 BMG tracers, not cheap. Large jet RCs not cheap either. Where do I sign up? ;D

Quad 50's rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want one - and the money to pay for the ammo!
Let's see, US$5 per round, times four guns, by rate of fire times a few hours of shooting -- priceless.
Almost literally.

That's the Knob Creek "Night Shoot".
FQ, those are NOT jet R/C planes, in one segment it shows it being hand launched, which would not be needed if it was Jet powered. It has Chem Lights on it for visibility.

I didn't see props. Maybe rear mounted? Regardless an expensive day at the range, but damn fun.

Dillon made that video and it's callled Fire Storm In The Desert "Machine Gun Magic". It's worth buying. It took 4 years to make and a half-million rounds. They shoot everything from a Gatling gun to just about any kind on machine gun you can think of to a minigun. IIRC the night shoot was the last part of the tape. Most of the guns you get to see one at a time all day.

I may be a spoil-sport here, but while it looked like a LOT of fun, where the hell were all those rounds gonna land? It's not like they had a backstop high enough to catch them.

They have a huge place in Arizona and patrol it with a helicopter before they start shooting to make sure no one is trespassing. They're being safe.

No problem. Now I just need to get a new VCR so I can watch the tape again.

They have A LOT of space for impact area . They do it every year, weather permitting

I don't think this is the same shoot, but they have an even harder time hitting the plane

Man, that looks like more fun than you can shake a stick at, expensive fun, but fun.
I guess that if you can afford the chain guns and mini gun, ammo and RC aircraft are no hill for a stepper.
Can I play? ;D

Just remember what my daddy used to say: "If you gotta ask the price, you can't afford it."
