“RAND noted that regarding other aircraft such as the F-16 Fighting Falcon and B-1 Lancer, a fast-moving jet bomber, “weapon use and enemy killed tended … to be somewhat lower than those for the A-10.”

Low and Slow. Time over target. Warthogs are the close air support weapon of choice and the infantry knows it.

How does the C-130 Ghost or whatever it’s called compared to an A-10?
