Quoting an unnamed source who witnessed the action, the report said that the aircraft carried out four airstrikes sparking panic in the ranks of ISIS after flying close to the ground.

This explains why the Sultan’s Secretary of the Air Force wants to get rid of the A10. She must be horrified at the plane’s effectiveness.
A-10 GUN RUN
Best comment on the video by our military on the ground there as a terrorist runs into a tree line just before the A-10 lets loose with its gatling gun...
“Let’s save our ammo.”...then the fireworks begins.
Where ever they are, Islamic terrorists must be showered with fire and steel. As many as possible must be reduced to burned gobbets of flesh scattered around smoking holes in the terrain. No quarter given. No opportunity for them to fight another day. The Warthog works fine for that. Attack, refuel, repeat.
I wonder how quickly Fairchild Republic could retool and start producing the A-10 again, with advancements of course.
Her CV does not show much in the way of leadership.
Someone pulls the strings and the mouth moves.
And another reads the script.
Very technical; similar to the wizardry of OZ.
200 years from now, I want their children's children's children's children to cower and cringe in fear whenever they hear the sounds of jet engines overhead because their legends tell of fire from the sky.
I want them to hide in dark caves and holes in the earth, shivering with terror whenever they hear the roar of diesel engines because the tales of their ancestors talk about metal monsters crawling over the earth, spitting death and destruction.
I want their mothers to be able to admonish them with "If you don't behave, the Pale Destroyers will come for you", and that will be enough to reduce them to quivering obeisance.
I want the annihilation to be so complete that their mythology will tell them of the day of judgment when the stern gods from across the sea .. the powerful 'Mericans .. destroyed their forefathers' wickedness.

Then we didn’t do it right. There should be no offspring of Allah left breathing.
Strela ... !
I see nothing there that indicates the muslims are the survivors.
lol
or maybe a well armored turbofan doesn’t generate enough heat to attract the attention of old and probably uncared for Strela missiles?
The C-130 and the A-10 are my favorite Air Force aircraft! One is a flying boxcar and the other is a flying tank!
A stealth version of the A-10?
A Stealth Hog?
Really! Imagine the politics behind the scene.
Active Duty ping.
What little this pathetic regime is doing is for the media alone. No way are they tring to do real damage or accomplish military goals.
Preservation of muzzie lives is paramount, over disposable US troops.
And not a SINGLE mention in the U.S. Mainstream Media.
Imagine that one, eh? Imagine how they would be covering it under GWB?
That should be a poster
