Redneck383: "I need a clip.. I'm out!" Santa yelled out, I threw him my last clip from my belt.
"Make it count Soldier... one shot, one kill..." The Elves were closing in, things were looking grim. That's when I heard it, the high pitch scream of turbofans, I looked to the east as a A10A Warthog came screaming with the sun to it's back. It let lose it's gattling gun. An entire platoon of Elfs were desimated instantly.

We were saved, our bunker wouldn't of held for much longer... all my troops let out a slight sigh of relief. Especially Santa, cause he started it all... not paying Overtime during the holiday season drove the worker Elfs nuts.
Redneck383: Private First Class S. Claus!

I can put this because the A10 raced the elves, and won thanks to good old lead storm!

A spyplane: No
An attack aircraft: Yes

And spy planes usually don't carry one these...

The AN/GAU-8a 30mm Avenger seven-barrel gatling gun, mounted only on the A-10 attack jet, is a 30mm, 7 barrel gatling gun used primarily in the air to ground role as a soft target killer and tank buster.

This aircraft is used for close-air support in attacking ground threats such as armored tanks and vehicles, and also serves as a forward air control observer for sighting ground threats and directing air strikes against enemy targets.

The gun, mounted in the fuselage nose of the A/OA-10 Thunderbolt, is produced by [ex General Electric] Martin Marietta Armament Systems.

According to some sources, the GAU-8 fires 1,800 rounds per minute, with the higher 4200 rd/min rate having been deleted in the 1980s. However, the A-10 can only fire in high rate, which is 3900 rounds per minute. Find out more on the A-10 here http://www.a-10.org

The 30mm DU(NR) round fired by the gun is about the size of a coke bottle.

Oh, and yes, the A-10 was a spy plane. Kinda. When the SR-71 was first developed, there was an armed super long range attack version known as the A-10. It never became operational though.
