i guess getting the A6's out of storage and back into service while releasing the Bugs from being bomb trucks back into fighters is out of the question

I personally like Textron's Scorpion. A squad of these and a couple of fighter escorts would get a a job done a whole lot cheaper than using fighters as bomb trucks.
20 million a piece, possibly as low as 17 million a piece, and $3,000 per flying hour. Textron developed this little jet on it's own.
