The photo is black and white and the quality is less than perfect so the presence of miniguns is near impossible to determine. The following information was provided by the seller of the photograph which is apparently a copy of the original. There is no information on the back of the photograph ------------------------------------------------ Photo Credit: DoD Photo Credit: DoD Photo Date: 1 June 1969 Photo Location: England AFB, Louisiana Photo ID: 812-C470221 ------------------------------------------------ Joe Baugher's Military Aircraft Serial Number website states the aircraft was converted to an AC-47 but has no additional details or disposition information.
