This video has already gone viral, so some of you have probalbly have seen it. I'm just posting it for those who haven't

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dadPWhEhVk

It features A-37 "Dragonflys" of the Uraguayan Air Force. Which has to be a first for the A-37 to be featured in a movie I imagine. Also depicted is the twin engined tandem seat turboprop attack aircraft named the "Pucara".

Not bad for a $300 dollar investment to make a short movie.

That'd be the Argentinean developed design used in the 1982 Falklands War, ending up with a couple of war-prize Pucaras in British museums as a result.

According to a story on Yahoo! the producer has now been offered a 30 million dollar development deal by horror/sci fi producer Sam Raimi's studio. 8)
