The AC-130 Spectre gunship evolved into the most heavily armed aircraft in history. It has a distinguished history and was used extensively in a multitude of roles during the Vietnam conflict. The AC-130 also flew combat during the USS Mayaguez incident and during Operations Urgent Fury, Frequent Wind, Just Cause, and Desert Storm. The tradition, courage, and sacrifice of the personnel who maintained and flew Spectre gunships are especially associated with the aircrew members who gave their lives flying in defense of freedom loving people everywhere.
