I don't think the A-10's would be very useful unless the Taliban has a number of tanks deployed, which I don't think is the case.
Each piece has its use. These C's look like they're doing the job that they need to do.

The General Electric GAU-8, 30MM Gatlin cannon, which fires 4800 rounds a minute, is ALWAYS useful. Some may remember in Granada, when a A-10 fored into a building, it REMOVED the entire second floor in one burst. Aerial artillary, it ain't just for tanks.
