3) Air to air missile: (254 KB, 4.3 sec) An AAM - possibly an American Sidewinder snakes towards a North Korean MiG and scores a hit. The stricken plane descends, trailing smoke.

4) Ground fire: (262 KB, 4.2 sec) This demonstration video from an Anti Aircraft weapon manufacturer looks great but is a bit of a joke , because the target that the cannon shells are seen heading for, and the actual object that explodes and falls to the ground are different, Two different clips have been joined together for effect.
