Wasn't there an announcement a few years ago that the A-10 was being phased out? At the time I thought that was an incredibly stupid decision by the AF. What happened?
Thanks for the pix. Don't cha just love the "hog". I can't believe they wanted to "replace" or phase this wonderful machine out of service.
I think we're going to need them for a long, long time.
You mean that DoiD actually can learn something? The jetjockies in the Air Force have been trying to bury the A-10 since whenever. Glad to hear this news. With a fighter canopy above, A-10s below and M1s on the ground, the T-72 might as well be pickups.
