Overview:
The A-10A Thunderbolt II is an aircraft specially designed for day and night close air support of ground forces. Alongside the awesome power of its (in)famous 30mm GAU-8/A Avenger Cannon, the aircraft can deploy a wide array of air-to-ground weaponry. These include rocket launchers, anti-tank missiles and various kinds of bombs. From the drawing board, the entire aircraft was designed to be easily maintainable with maximum survivability. With features like a titanium armor plated cockpit, foam filled fuel tanks, redundant primary structure and interchangeable left side to right side parts, among many other features, the A-10A is capable of operating from advance bases with minimal support equipment. The A-10A is a simple, effective and survivable aircraft that can be used against all ground targets; especially tanks and other armored vehicles.

It'll be sad to see this bird go when it does; there's just something interesting about the 'hog.

Well, I just read that they're trying to extend the A-10's life past 2028.

But not surpassing 2040.

It's kinda sad that this 'hog didn't appear in the Electrosphere.

Why not spend some time fixing it instead of just editing it and fucking it up and leave it up to somebody else to fix it? Honestly, I would try to fix this if somebody gave me the privilege of editing the articles...

Aside from the editing screw-ups, I wonder why Namdai does not put the A-10C in their games? Even the AC6 still have the older A-10A even though that the A-10C existed after 2005, and AC6 was made in 2006. Let's hope that AC:AH will have the A-10C
