So you are saying that you agree with the NDS that the A-10s should no longer be in the fleet?



Yes. They are useless in a high-end fight against a near-peer/peer competitor.

If so, wouldn't the A-10s be useful elsewhere if not in the Far East strategy?


We can't even afford the things we need to meet the #1 priority in the NDS. Why would we then fund something that is a lower priority?

It's much cheaper to fly


Doesn't matter. If it is useless in our priority mission, then every dollar spent on it is a waste.
