“The 30mm GAU-8/A Avenger rotary cannon (and associated ‘BRRRT’ report)”.
Hope they’re keeping these guns if we’re called to the ME again...

When conventional war begins between Russia and NATO sans the proxy, the Warthogs and Apaches will decimate Russian ground forces. That’s one one the reasons the nuclear threshold will quickly be crossed.

What an unlikely duo, the B-1 and the A-10!
What's the difference in airspeed? In the neighborhood of 1000 mph?

It’s more likely that the US will use these weapons against the American people.

I likey !!! Pack a few Hellfire loads on also and find a location for an additional Drum Mag or 2 (for balance) to add a few hundred more 30mm rounds to the ZapGun and make a Saturday Night Super Special to say just how much we luv the scumbags.
Maybe some rear fuselage artwork like:
"I'm the hootin'est, tootin'est, shootin'est, bob-tail wildcat, in the west!"

Selfridge ANG base lies 7 miles from me and they're home to a squadron of A-10's. I can always tell it's one of them as opposed to a fighter when they fly over my house.

Maybe this GLSDB capability makes the A-10 more attractive for the Ukrainians.

The combat radius is different too.
To: grumpygresh
I’ve considered that as well. AC-130s would probably be the choice against any mass protests in American streets.
