      I used to work with a guy who was an F-4 pilot in Vietnam. The 106 was one of his favorite weapons. It has a „push-pull“ trigger, notice the „tube“ above the barrel. That’s another barrel for a special 12.7×77 spotter round, you can see him fire it at 0:08. They have very similar ballistics to the 106, so the idea was you’d sight through the scope, then pull the trigger to fire the 50 cal. If the tracer round hit where you wanted the 106 round to hit, you’d push the trigger and BOOM.

      Since we had other 105mm ordnance the recoilless rifle was labelled as „106mm“, even though it also was 105mm in diameter.

      edit: Ian does a pretty good job of it: [here in this general location area zone](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or6OtukreYU&t=13s).

    2. Crazy how the Thai military is clearly more technological superior in many areas, including actually having a real air force, but then at the same time uses litteraly cold war era western stuff from the periods as the cold war era soviet stuff Cambodia uses.
