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.

They want it off their budget. Let the Army or the Marines pay for it. It's part of their mission.

then give them to the Army or the Marines. That is one awesome weapon platform.

It is not a plane, it is a rotary cannon with wings.
