LR, Tou gotta love those A-10's.  They is ugly and they fly slow, but they kick butt. At one time, they had a squadron of A-10's at Barksdale AFB in Louisana. They had another one at Tucson AZ.  Chad Hennings, who played for the Cowboys, flew an A-10 in Desert Storm.

The A-10 is designed to take a licking and and keep on ticking. A case of function over form ::)
I might be slow, but I'm mostly accurate.....

LR, The A-10 proves that you don't have to be fast, pretty, or sleek to kick  ASS!

Indeed.  But the Air Force doesn't "like" them BECAUSE they aren't fast, sleek, & sexy.  But they won't "allow" the Army to take 'em over.  It'd be cool to have an Army Air Corps again.

I can tell ya some 1st hand stories of A10s and their wonderful pilots.  Suffice to say, I'm glad they're on OUR side!

In 1975, the old Soviet AF had received a pretty capable aircraft, too - the SU25 "Frogfoot" (our NATO code name).  It carries a LOT of ordnance.  It's also been continuously upgraded after the fall of USSR - one of a very few pieces of equipment.  It's being sold, of course, to several countries, including Israel.
