The Air Force has never wanted to do Close Air Support.
That is what the A-10 does better than any other aircraft has ever done.

The Air Force never wanted this plane - or it’s mission. It should be turned back over to the Army who really use/appreciate it.

USAF just completed a massive upgrade program on most of the A10’s including new wings. They may put a few in storage but the A10’s will be flying for many more years. Planes are often cycled through storage to manage the fleet.

It’s not a super sexy stealthy zillion dollar aircraft so the AF doesn’t want it.

Played golf at Indian Lake Estates in Central Florida yesterday.
Aircraft bombing range, used by Navy and Air force, is located just a couple of miles away from the course.
2 A-10’s were in action yesterday...AWESOME!

I’m an old Army guy who knows nothing about the Air Force (and nothing about combat) but I thought that the A-10 was very useful in a number of combat scenarios.

A drone version would be fine by me. No need to put a pilot in harm’s way.

Is there a viable alternative for the situations where the Warthog thrives?

As I watched videos of terrorists cars and trucks being taken out with a 500 lb bomb, I kept thinking why not use an A-10 (at probably 1/10 cost) to do the same thing.

Hi.
I hope you are doing well.
Imho, a Grunt’s best friend. Give it to the Army.
