As a retired USAF CSAR Pilot I can say the A-10 is not replaceable by anything the Air Force currently has. There is a big difference in loiter time and most importantly accuracy between the A-10 and an F-16, F-35 or FA-18. The idiots that want to retire this plane do not have any idea how to employ it, and have never needed to have precision firepower delivered within 100m of their precious asses... But hey...

I never really realized we had them until I was at Ft. Sill in post-August of 1990 and they were always coming from the nearby Air Base and we even saw them target practice from a hillside, and I was in love at that moment. When I was a kid, the B-52s coming and going from Guam and the subs and other Naval vessels made me feel safe. After I finished my AIT, the A-10 and helicopters of all flavors gave me a nice feeling even with anxiety eating at you. Until the more recent small but deadly drones, our Field Artillery, MLRS, HIMARS also soothed me and I slept so much better even if stateside in the middle of the country those sounds were like being a young kid and dad was a big strong fighter going to fix the bad neighbor. We need MORE A-10s, no production lines? OK, upgrade things and aim for 1,000-1,500 A-10 IIs and parts to build 3x that. Maybe even open production up for some of our better allies who won't surrender first sign of danger.
Fk, I hate posting comments that are long and don't actually post. Different aircraft and weapon systems have given me peace of mind. As a kid B-52s and Navy while in Guam. 1990 Ft. Sill and A-10s, all helicopters, MLRS, HIMARS, Field Artillery (including the long gone 8-inch self-propelled ground shaking howitzers) and Special Ops and Air Assault made me feel even better as we were loading trains to head to Saudi Arabia and I was finishing AIT for my 1st MOS. Saw what A-10s could do.
Antiquated. Love the AC worked it for 15 years. Without a significant avionics upgrade the F35 is supreme in every way except battle damage. Look at the BUFF it use to use guns too, but no longer...Drones swarms will kill the AC. Fairchild built an amazing flying gun but an AC130 can do this job and loiter much longer. BRRRT!
@@user-zj5vk6fg2x I have to disagree for a whole host of reasons. First there are no where near enough AC 130' out there. They are far more vulnerable to ground fire. They also are much slower than the A10 when it comes to response times to react to troops in contact. They also lack the hitting power of precision bombs when those happen to be the required.
Ukraine doesn't want them. That's a sign that they're no longer usable against most adversaries. There are just too many MANPADs out there. The risk is too high. The plane is alive because of nostalgia and momentum in the Pentagon. They belong in the museum.
All I can say is being on the ground in a fire fight I can remember hearing them coming was music to our ears The angles of death .. best air to ground fighter by far 🙌🇺🇲
I worked at a company in the mid 80's that made skin panels for 325 A-10 aircraft. I performed all of the routing,most of the drilling, and most of the painting. All of the fixtures were supplied by Fairchild Republic. Truly one of the finest aircraft ever built!
I remember many, many years ago when the Air Force Originally wanted to retire the A-10, Army and the Marines Both offered to buy it from the Air Force because they like how it supported the ground. They even offered to split the purchase between themselves. The Air Force completely backed out and refused to refused, said they would just retire it because it's too old. Army and Marines did not care.They loved that the way it was. They flat out refused and with all the media attention from soldiers and those of the light, they finally kept it and then upgraded it.Which is the reason it's still here now , and that was the early 2000
The army does not have any fixed wing combat aircraft, the marines do and I remember this as the marines offered to take the a-10’s. Actually the usmc should have a few squadrons of these but the USAFR units flying the a10 are top notch pilots, there are many incidents where they put it all on line for the boots on the ground.
@@marvettbrooks6742 I remember getting excited while going through Army flight school in 1991 because it was all but a sure thing that we were going to get the A-10. Then it kicked ass in Desert Storm and that was the end of it... The Key West Agreement which limits Army helicopters to 2.5 hours of gas and delineates the different service rolls also kept the Army from getting A-10's but they were going to modify that for CAS back then. At least that was the talk at the time.
A10... baddest bird on the battlefield ! But it's not just about the A10... the pilots of the A10 seem to be a different kinda cat... their "cowboy" approach to air warfare just works with the A10 platform.... and together they are a force to be reckoned with ! God Bless the USA !!!
I've always loved war aircrafts, even if I hate war. They're so fascinating. My preferred ones are the F-16, the F-15, the SR-71 Blackbird (the boss !) and the A-10 of course. Used to build plastic models of them, draw them as closely as I could. Great years. Thanks for your nice video and cheers from France!
The plane has a proven track record that is special and something to be proud of, For me you can't kill a legend that has left a legacy like the A10 WartHog. 😊
Hands down, The A-10 is best ground support AC ever, But I also need to pay homage to it's predecessors that made this AC possible. P-40 without a doubt, But The A-1 Skyraider to me is the bases for the worthog!
I haven’t been down range and gotten to witness this beauty in action however, I have done training missions and had these beauties as support. The sweet sounds of that gun can hum me to sleep anytime. Lol
JSDF will battle at Japan territory. And there are rather small and very up and down. it is not common situation for hundreds of MBTs battle. So there is no need for Closed Air support like A10.
I just read a article that said they are retiring the A-10, and using F-16s and F-35s to fill the void. Those two planes aren't built to take the beating that an A-10 can survive.
