Someone who worked in Aerospace claimed he knew of A-10’s in Vietnam that lost an engine (blown off) and still returned to base.

I imagine with drones to assist, they would be even more survivable. Someone attacking the A-10 would provide targets for the drones.

The A-10 came into service in the 70’s, well after Vietnam, so either your friend lied or you had a typo.
