Note the time of report of the guns to impact of the projectiles. It was a long ways off.

Helicopters do not carry that kind of caliber either.

This kind of firepower is enough to make your blood curdle.

that was defo a chopper kill not a spectre. first the missile strike, it looked like a hellfire or some such, second the vehicles movement alters to direct path when they use the cannon you can see they stop circling and move in direct to close distance for the cannon.
the impact blooms are dust rather then explosions.
also it looks alot like the FLIR from an Apache, the cobra usually has hard black crosshairs on their barrels. Apache's can use their 30mm chain guns out to about 1km.
defo a chopper kill that one
