To paraphrase Toby Keith, “she thinks my warthog’s sexy”. Basically a flying tank, whose main purpose is to rain 30mm air-to-ground death on anything or anyone unlucky enough to be in it’s path. I knew an F-15 pilot who once got “shot down” by one in an exercise (warthog drivers barely know what air-to-air is). Talk about embarrassment.

In the “Gulf Wars” at least one Iraqi helicopter got on the wrong end of a ‘hog, and died.
