ADAD. That's Air Defence Acccidental Discharge...

Yikes!

In a horrific twist of events, a computerized anti-aircraft gun went out of control in a SANDF (South African National Defence Force) live-fire exercise. Attempts to shut it down failed as it sprayed hundreds of high-explosive 35mm cannon shells around the five gun-firing position.

I really hope nobody was hurt in the incident. A couple of weeks ago 9 SANDF soldiers perished because some AAA Battery malfunctioned as well during an exercise.
