Neat.......Dig this, check out the 5 inch gun firing from a USN Destroyer, note the bomb/shell inflight, notice further if you look close you'll see the shockwave spreading out behind the round inflight...... Very Cool and rare to catch like this!! :)

*Pic came from the Military Photos & Videos section - US Navy page
