The War

Video of an Apache helicopter killing a team of terrorists planting an IED along a road in Iraq.

(Hat tip to the Claremont Institute.)

Update: An astute comment pointed out that the attack came from an Apache, not an AC-130. I did some looking around, and it appears that the video first aired in Dec 2003 on ABC.

AH-64

Check the HUD, it says TADS

Target Acquisition Designation Sight

I believe this is unique to the AH-64.

The fire is consistent with the 30mm chain gun on the Apache, not the 105 or the 40mm on the ac-130.

That being said, I could be wrong
