Billy, did you ever talk to somebody who has been at the receiving end of a gunship? (I mean the good guys, of course.)

It's absolutely eerie. There is NO sound until the bullets suddenly start ripping into the earth, and then it's either like a hellish hailstorm (7.62 minis) or a roar like a looooong bull bellow (20mm). The tracer stream looks like a never-ending bolt of red lightning. Long seconds after the last bullet hits, there's an equally long deep moan from the sky - and THAT sounds for all the world like devils on their way to hell.

And then in the weird silence, inevitably, somebody says in absolute awe, "Holy sheet."

It is. It is just exactly that.
