   The OV-10A Bronco was designed principally as a counter-insurgency aircraft
which gives it the ability to perform high precision attacks on ground targets
The aircraft also has a cargo compartment which can carry 5 paratroopers, or
two stretchers and a medic.  More recent versions of the aircraft have also
been used in the forward air controller (FAC) directing other aircraft.  A
primary design feqture of the OV-10 is its twin boom layout and the aircraft
