"Retiring the decades-old fleet of about 300 A-10s would potentially save about $4.2 billion over five years, Air Force leaders have said". ... “Even if you said you wanted to keep the A-10, where does the Air Force come up with the money to retain the A-10 and all that comes with it … and still get its full complement of F-35s?”

So we need $850 million per year to maintain the existing fleet of ships for five years. Obola has been running annual deficits of $1,000,000 PER YEAR for years and years. And they can't find that small amount of money to fulfill the most basic requirement of government -- national defense?

Obola and his democrat henchmen (and many Republicans in cahoots) make me sick. This is an almost trivial amount of money at the national level to maintain the most effective close support gunship ever built. It is perfectly designed for wiping out our muslim enemies in the ME.

The AF hates the A10. They have been trying to get rid of it since before Gulf I. They don’t want anything that’s not MACH capable.
