Corrected entry: The AC-130 only has guns on the port (left) side which are mounted on the back instead of the front and they are not hidden. A gunner is required to operate them instead of the pilots pressing a button in the cockpit. Only older versions of the AC-130 have the dual miniguns and they do not have flare dispensers, so the first missiles fired by the fighters would have shot it down. The AC-130U has flare dispensers but only has one minigun on the left side.

Correction: That plane was custom made by the North Koreans for this purpose, because the US Air Force also wouldn't sell AC-130s willy-nilly to anyone asking politely. One of many instances where the filmmakers lean on North Korea having way overstated resources to make them out as a credible threat.
