I believe the official Israeli explanation is that the A10 is too specialized. It’s not needed in desert warfare, and doesn’t linger enough to pick off individuals or small groups in hills/mountains.

*shrug* Perhaps they can build their own functional equivalent, one that doesn't look quite so much like a flying Cross...

Doesn’t linger?Thats a lot of bull.The A10 was designed to loiter for a long while.Much longer than a Apache helicopter and still carry a significant load of ordnance.Its much more lethal than the Apache.

Oh!I forgot it’s Air Refuelable as well.
