Our fighters clear the skies, the Warthogs knock the enemy force down, the Apaches chip away some more and the Abrams finish them off. We don’t want to fight fair.


This is a 40-year-old mission set. New tech (drones) has slightly changed the battlefield. Do we really need fighters to provide air superiority when all I need are sub-$10k drones to provide the same role as an A-10 could do? Plus all the support an A-10 needs to remain in the air?

We have seen older Bradelys taking out older Russian tanks. Maybe if we go against a major power we'll need Abrams. The world is changing.
