My Dad flew A-10s in Vietnam in the sixties. It's a good thing they are so deadly because flying that close to the ground makes them targets.

"My Dad flew A-10s in Vietnam in the sixties." The first production A-10s didn't fly until 1975, so I don't think he was flying an A-10.

If your dad was flying an A-10 in Vietnam, it must have been undercover, DEEP undercover! The first unit received the A-10 in 1976, AFTER Saigon capitulated on April 30, 1975. I believe the USAF used the A-1 Skyraider during Vietnam for CAS.

” A-10s in Vietnam in the sixties”
Sorry but that is technically incorrect. The A-10s weren’t available until the mid-70s.

My Dad flew A-10s in Vietnam in the sixties. Perhaps OV-10s? A whole 'nother animal.
