If you haven’t noticed, there aren’t any calls for A-10s on the Uke battlefield. When you put them up against Russia’s modern air defense system, they’re probably obsolete too. Good against hapless, hardly trained irregulars with zero air assets or air defense, suicidal against the Russians or Chicoms.
Very likely. But a new version of an A-10 might be needed, maybe unmanned, cheap, and lots of them? Throwing money at tanks seems outdated and wasteful.
