The cockpit is a titanium bathtub with an airplane built around it. The devastating, rapid fire gatling gun on the nose that can drill through tank armour was added to make the Wart Hog sexy. Heard that one from an A-10 pilot.

I’m sure it’s quite effective on Toyota pickup trucks and SUVs. I wonder if they even bother with the “premium” depleted uranium ammo or use cheap stuff.

Actually, it's the other way around. The plane was designed around the 30mm.
