Developed in 1968, the AC-130 Gunship was a swift response to the need for ground force support in Vietnam. Converted from 28 C-130 cargo planes, it was crude and unattractive, earning disdain from many in the USAF. Yet, it proved highly effective. Despite being labeled as unruly "biker gangs," AC-130 crews excelled in major US military operations from 1976 to 1995. Veiled in secrecy, these missions are now unveiled through declassified records and interviews. "Ghostriders 1976-1995" presents the first authoritative account of AC-130 operations, authored by a veteran Aerial Gunner deeply involved in these missions.
