I am so happy you ended this video with the most amazing piece of A-10 attack footage ever recorded. A masterful A-10 pilot. Dude, in a single gun run, systematically took down the majority of that enemy ridden forest with the 4 calculated bursts. Never heard a GAU-8 groan like in the last burst. MAXED OUT!
Absolutely a masterful precise gun run , surely was two A-10s though ?
That's some IRL Game of Throne dragon sh*t right there.
So badass. But if you ever hear this sound you weren't its target lol
To paraphrase from Apocalypse Now:
Sounds like .... victory

I love this jet. Greetings from a german veteran ❤
Thank you for your service
@@lavishmctavish4905 Every time again 😉
Did you fight in the great war?
Nazi?
I always have to tip my hat to the Germans and their unbelievable engineering feats.
Best Sound EVER..!
The engineering behind these types of cannons is crazy
Just getting the ammo to feed properly is an amazing feat of technology. I’ve got buddies with budget build ARs that can’t get one mag down range without jamming 😂 #povertypony
Crazy how they can't eject their spent cartridges because it would throw the planes center of gravity off so much!
So if anyone says A10s were doing gun runs and their brass was landing on top of them is lying!
A10 has fucking saved my life!
Then you'd probably see all the empty brass for sale as scrap in the bazaar the next day
@@abrahamm1325 let's don't talk about it
the rate of brass ejection, if not controlled, would rip a hole through the airframe. All of it has to be carefully controlled or it will rip apart.
They say it's about weight, but those projectiles weigh about half the total cartridge weight. So, when it and the weight of the powder is expelled, I'm not sure how much it matters from a balance standpoint that they retain the aluminum case. Either way, you're tossing more than half the weight out the front of the airframe. I think it's just easier to retain them than it is to worry about whether they might drop into another A-10's engines. You've got the space in the magazine for the casing, so just feed it back in and don't worry about that until you hook it back up on the ground.
So fricken sick. They are by far my favorite winged aircraft
That humvee looked dangerously close 😳
ua-cam.com/video/aOYWbxrlGko/v-deo.html
This is dangerously close....
That humvee was about 150 yards away.
@@stabilis8895 I would say it’s close enough that I wouldn’t mind being a bit further back. The level of accuracy can vary quite a bit from a range of different factors. And a some of the rounds can easily land outside of what’s being aimed at. They were close enough that accidents could happen but I’m well aware there have been much closer fire missions that are even more butt clenching.
@@coldburn9956 Oh definitely I'd want to be wayyyy back 😂👍🏻
BEAST MODE 👍🏼
"They ain't alive no more!"
CAS is a ground pounders best friend but it doesn’t get any sexier than the Warthog !
the anticipation is palatable. oh, here it comes, here it comes, here it come, here it comes......when is it going to get.. BRRRRRAP......cigarette time.
World’s best CAS fighter?? 🔥
Love the A-10!
To all of these politicians and generals who want to retire the A10, I say this:
Go fight the enemy up close and personal, and when they come at you with overwhelming force - you will pray for an A10 to come save your ass!!!
- 2/75 RLTW-ATW
The sweet smell of gunpowder in the afternoon!! Awesome firepower and precision.
Glorious!
The warthog must be the most badass fighter jet ever
It is, but it isn't a fighter. It's a Close Air Support (CAS) aircraft. CAS takes out tanks, apcs, ifvs, trucks, artillery, convoys, troop concentrations, hardened positions or any other threats to a ground assault. And "close" can be considered 100+/-yds. (or more) ahead of the forward elements of the assaulting force.
true buts its not a fighter jet
Air support yes .. but still classified as a fighter jet
@@lordphullautosear🤓🤓🤓
@@kurtbarlow9917-- it's certainly a combat aircraft, but it's not an aircraft vs aircraft "fighter (although I recall seeing something about an A-10 driver taking down an enemy aircraft, possibly a helicopter, with the gun)." A-10: the A stands for "attack." F-15: the F stands for "fighter." FA-18: a dual role aircraft that at least holds its own against enemy aircraft, but performs attack (as in attacking targets on the ground, or even water) functions equally well. So it's not an "F-10," but an A-10; look into how the USAF designations work and you'll see.
Beautiful
I can be in the Shittiest of moods and the A-10 always makes me happy.
OMG i fucking love this as much as shooting Howitzers
Amazin'
Just Badass
The true sound of Freedom.
freedom:
noun
1. the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants.
"we do have some freedom of choice"
2.the state of not being imprisoned or enslaved.
"the shark thrashed its way to freedom"
Therefore, you're using the word freedom wrong, bro.
Tax dollars.
@@Bert_de_Wit Ahh ok, so apparently I am doing freedom wrong? Does this exception to §1 above only apply to me?
I humbly apologize and I will try to do better in my future YT comments.
@@EinkOLED Certainly that.
"I pledge allegiance to the BRRRRRRT"
The sound is bone chilling
Looks like testing at Eglin AFB. Used to here it all the time.
My favorite 👍
Nice. I was alpha 2/506 infantry, only got to see apache fux up some chit.
I would have loved to seen one of those up against a Russian column especially that reported 40-mile long one last year
It would be shot down in about a minute. Both sides have practically given up going near the front even in much faster aircraft.
This guy is really comparing russians to terrorists... well that's one coward who will never even be close to a battlefield.
@@lucaskellan4909 What does this comment even mean? Serious keyboard warrior vibes mate.
Any optics ready holster available?
Yeah, that’s gotta hurt! 🤕
Amazing/Terrifying.
nice :)
I found my new lullaby😂
I fly in that jet before on GTA5 online. 😮
The Trumpet of doom
Now That's how you should start at one of your live streams.
Ah yes, sweet sweet freedom 😈
Now that is how you properly kill a sasquatch...normal guns aint gonna cut it, but that will certainly do the trick...
Get some!
That sound will put the fear of God in you LOL
The founding fathers would have wanted you to have access to this as well...
without stamps, 'licenses', inspections, or charges of bore diam/magazine limits.
I love Thomas Jeffersons' quote re:Exercise and Guns!❤
such a gun is necessary to stand your ground self defense. I'm a sissy and can't fight, but still want to justifiably kill someone, therefore guns.
@@travelinman70 IF you have legal grounds to end somebodies life...the argument about who they are, whether their life should have been ended (instead of spared) etc doesn't matter...
To reach a level of human-on-human transgression it requires extreme actions on the transgressor
- threatens the basic life/existence of the other (or those around them)
-steal/destroy the property that the other poured time/labor into acquiring
- destroy their financial security
- violate them (R word)
- Infringe/Restrict/Vioalate their natural born rights (self-defense, free speech, freely traveling, keeping private matters private)
...Well that transgressor in doing so loses all justifiable defenses to their continued existence. They should be seen as (formerly) human, and lower than the dirt in the fields (which as opposed to the POS human indeed serves many good purposes).
UP UNTIL NOW I'm just talking about 1 person defending against 1 other (POS) person. IMPORTANT to remember: the world is 100% unfair, nobody is going to 100% definitely 'save' you magically in that moment of need but yourself.
It could be that its 100 POS persons or even 10k: your right to blanket self-defense against ANYTHING is a natural right. Is it likely you'd survive a 1k vs 1 fight if a armed group attacked your property? Unlikely....All the more reason you have the right (not privilege) to extreme measures of self-defense...tanks, missiles, warships, MANPADS, miniguns, mines etc.
There are indeed VERY few groups that 100% absolutely abstain from violence in any form...and anybody besides that is incapable of mounting an argument for lethal force, because in some extreme situation they'd say it is justified (whether by a citizen or LEO or gov)...the mere act of rationalizing it for 1 human applies that rationale to ALL humans.
Love brrrrrtt 😅
Never let it retire. If the AF can keep B-52s current....
They say if you hear it, you weren’t the target if you don’t, you were the target
Wonder if those rounds that continue to cycle after its stopped firing are discarded or reused.
Reused for sure
This is my alarm sound.
Sounds like freedom
If you hear this brrrt, you're on the right side of the battle.
And if you don’t, you just say pile of mush Burt whatever’s left
The Reaper's horn
how to spend your entire savings: 0:01
Best sound when you got shit danger close
I just OOOOO'ed in my pants 😂
Fucking terrifying
Aberdeen Proving Grounds I assume?
Jesus I love that sound. And a big Bird to those who diss this plane. Will alway's cherish it no matter how others think that's it's inadequate on the battlefield. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
Brrrrrrat 💀
It’s responsible for many Blue on Blue incidents, is prone to anti air for its slow speed, the F22 is a massively better close air support vehicle
@@crypticbait That depends on its loadout. I think if the military was to do a full redesign on the A-10 with the new tech and materials that have been created. The new aircraft could fill the roll of the A-10 quite nicely
@@jadethemarksmanwolf7020 oh my Lord facts! Could you imagine this baby suped up with the latest Tec, some new power plants and maybe even a new cannon? Holy sheep sh!t. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
@@Silo-Ren Would be interesting if they upgraded the gun to maybe a 40MM or a 35MM. Cut down the RPM and Half the spread. Upgraded IFF. Upgraded NVG and thermal package. Upgrade the whole computer systems to actively scan any and all ground targets to not only share the info between any and all aircraft on the battlefield. But also actively identify individual vehicles and their outlines. Christ it could be scary how capable something like that could be.
It's an awesome plane . Yes they fly slow. It's for a reason. ...ready,aim. Brrrrrrrr. 😁
hungry for some Orc tanks!
Plane go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrtttttttt
why would they name it 'warthog' when 'dragon' still wasn't taken ?
🥳🥳🥳
General Electric should make a gatling cannon that fires 57mm Bofors. For no other reason than the sound alone.
Fire-breathing dragon!!!
OMG
A10! We are taking fire from that tree line! Copy! Brrrrrrtttt Treeline removed!
"Brrrrrrrrrrrrttttt Brrrrrrrrrrrrrtttttttttt"
brrrrrrt! brrrtrrrt! 😮
Brrrtttttt!!!! The f16 has a prettt nar brrttt too
Brrrrrrr
I'm glad I'm not the one cleaning up the pieces😬
Mostly pink mist and orange juice.
can it be set to something other than A-10?
They built the A-10 around the GAU-8 so it wouldn't really be possible to put it on another aircraft. They did use some of the technology on the smaller GAU-12 that is on the Harrier but it just isn't the same. The 12 is used on the Harrier
@@GeorgeOrwell-yz6zx didn't mean on another aircraft but on AMV or something like that
I may be remembering wrong, but I swear somebody mounted one on a really big truck, once.
Edit: It was probably a 20mm Vulcan I'm remembering. The GAU-8 is just too big.
But! Not long after the gun was developed, General Electric entered into the DIVAD program, the Army's search for a self-propelled anti-air gun system. Their proposal used a modified GAU-8 housed inside a tank turret. Their proposal was declined, and the whole program was a flop, but you can find some cool illustrations of their idea if you search for them!
@@NPI-iz7bg Pretty sure you'd need the mass of something like an Abrams or a Challenger. Not just to give it mobility on the battlefield. Or to hold her stable but also to carry more ammo for more "Brrrrrrrt" Time. Plus one fekking HELL of a reload system to keep the whole ensemble in the fight. 💜 Now that we know the parameters, how do we start the 'Crowd funding' to make it happen? 😁
That’s not shitty audio that’s the sound of a tank killer firing traveling
Can't kill tanks, BUT if we give a 57mm...
I need a towel
BRRRRRRRRR "They are alife no mor...." BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Just don't breath that DU smoke
Why I am not allowed to inhale the freedom smoke
Let's expose the Ukrainians to it though, because Russia bad!
I wish I could be on the other end of it
Just go try and start your own caliphate in the Middle East somewhere and one will come find you.❤❤❤
If You heard this, count your lucky stars. You weren't its target because its target didn't get to hear this 😂😂
Pretty bird
Merica Fck Yeah !!!!!!!
I need a sock....
Couple of waterproof sticky plasters and they will be fine.
If you see an A-10 firing its cannon but you can hear the brrrrrrrrrt that means you aré death AF
Looks like a stream of thermite
Whatever's left is mostly pink mist and orange juice!
But can I hold it in my hands? I think so
look like? it's more of a feeling that a look and the sound is....?that was a gun? sounds like a battleship being ripped in half...longways.
Gasm
I do that after Taco Bell.
Thank john McCain that this irreplaceable ground support system still exists
One thing he got right
Aren't they all still getting retired soon? Before 2030?

nice it kils everyting
could imagine if that was a woman. that be one scary date
Incoming BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT comments. 😅
Farts of death
Looks like friendly casualties
Thanks I needed that and FJB 🖕
Ok it works! Now let's build a plane that can carry this mofo.
Always hungry weapon
Hell no they don't want no more.
I see no reason why you can't put 4 of them on the planes!
I imagine weight being one reason not to have 4 😂
