| The aircraft carrier is the Intrepid in NYC. You can cross-reference its aircraft [http://www.intrepidmuseum.org/AircraftCollection.aspx here], so you can see they don't have an Israeli A-4. Either way, Israeli A-4s were armed with 30mm Adens rather than Mk 12s. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 08:23, 13 October 2015 (EDT)

| ::The Israeli jet is a Kfir, which is supposed to have 30mm DEFAs. Considering these planes are kept in the open in NYC, I doubt they'd have any real cannons mounted at all. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 09:04, 13 October 2015 (EDT)

| :::I honestly don't think the cannons on the planes are worth documenting. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 09:14, 13 October 2015 (EDT)

| ::::::That said, in the first shot you can see one of the ''Intrepid's'' 40mm quad Bofors gun installations and one of her 5 inch guns, the 5in is directly about the nose of USS ''Growler's'' missile and the 40mm is above the next white pole on the left.

| :::::::I'm not sure the Intrepid still had 40mm and 5 in guns that late in the game. I think those are both 3 in guns. The Navy removed the 5 in guns from the Essex class when they were upgraded, and the Navy replaced almost all 40mms with 3 in guns. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 13:50, 13 October 2015 (EDT)
