If a Coast Guard E-3 can shoot out a fast boat engine I think a few well trained SWAT types could do the same with outstanding results. Think about it, an engine block at say 300 meters, think you could hit it from a moving helo?

The worst thing is I set up a test and exercise in Panama for that very thing. ST 4 came over and we did it.
Pilot - "Ok, let's shoot it."
BAM!
Pilot - "Holy shit! TIME OUT!"
Took us forever to find something that would cushion the recoil and not shake the bird out of the air. Great time was had by all.
