I thought they were getting rid of the A-10.

This is great. We need the Thunderbolt II.

(Just bought a house on a street named "Thunderbolt", named after the first Jug, the P-47 - I think we need one of those model planes with the spinnie propellers on the street sign).

The entire A-10 fleet will be modified over the next five years for an estimated total contract value of $168 million.

$168 million to update the whole A-10 fleet. Now that's a deal! I read somewhere that they're going to start replacing the engines in a couple years.
