It's still my favorite fighter of all time probably dur to my Artillery days. If you need close air support besides the uparmored C-130 it's awesome! Thanks for your post MAJ Conway!

It was a shocking sight to see them fly over us Lilo and banking while I was at Fort Polk jrtc. Even though they didn't fire off any of their Gatling gun rounds, it was still an awesome site so I can imagine from the video singing close air support in action hitting the enemy 50 meters away and further.

The F-35 will never be able to replace the A-10 no matter how much money you throw at it. A-10 Warthog is mission specific and strikes absolute fear in the hearts and minds of our enemy, and I have witnessed this first hand.

Why get rid of something that tank drivers fear the most, besides another tank.
