the A-10 is one big piece of a$$ kicking!
I saw those aircraft on ranges before the war - and saw what they did in Iraq once over there...so did the enemy...this aircraft is not to be pi$$ed off!
Beyond that sheer amount of whoop ass this thing can lay down, it literally is a flying tank. The amount of damage an A-10 can take and STILL make it back home is nothing short of amazing.
