Perhaps an unarmed ship. But otherwise A10s are close air support tools.

Sorry for lack of my replies - when I’d try to reply I’d end up back at the original thread page instead of the reply page.

I’d guess support for RP itself. Establish air superiority w/ nearby carrier group and F-16’s based in RP, and then the A-10’s blow the Chinese off their artificial reefs and such...

Definitely a drier runway, that day in 2016!

That would have been near the beginning of Duterte’s term as Pres., anybody know how extensive the US “show” of US air power was during most his term(s)?
