AC-130E Pave Aegis, serial 96571, of the 16th SOS, Ubon AB, Thailand. It was shot down over Ho Chi Minh Trail on 30 March 1972. The plane was armed with two M61 Vulcan, one 40mm Bofor, and a ‘brand new’ 105mm howitzer, which was removed from a AC-130E 96570 which had been damaged by ground fire just a few days previously. The plane was never fitted with its rear sensor turret, subsequently installed on other planes of this type between the 40mm and 105mm guns.
