A-10 starting run in Iraq
This could have been filmed in 1990, 2003, 2014, or today. Time is a flat circle, but the A-10 will always reign supreme.

Tank Killers are the best. Love these aircraft. Slow and Low!

How's that whole "death to America" thing working out for you, fellas?

You can bet they shite their pants 1 hundo.
I got to hear that shite up close in anger in SW Iraq on Feb 24, 1991. Glad they were a mile off from our position.

The favorite pilots for ground forces are the A-10 jocks ….. they never pay for beer

They just tear shite apart to being unrecognizable when they done. It doesn't take more than a few seconds either.

Indeed. Another would be the close air support offered by the AC-130 gunships … badass personified.
My father was a crew chief on those during two different tours out of Ubon for 8thTac in the Vietnam theater. He had some very memorable stories.

The sounds of those rounds impacting will losen an enemies bowels.

The sound of the A-10’s cannon is the most demoralizing sound the opposition can hear.

It’s weird that they sound so scared when they’ve got 72 virgins waiting for them.
Hopefully those Warthogs make them rethink the fcked up choices they made in life.

Two of the greatest spectacles of my life came one afternoon when two F4 Phantoms dropped their entire ordinance only 200 meters from our position; and then one night when a C-47 Spooky gunship worked out on our perimeter to save this old Marine’s arse.
My only experience with A-10s was when fishing at Miller’s Lake near Ville Platte when the Warthogs made their daily runs out of the old England AFB in Alexandria.

At this point, IMO, they’ve kinda forfeited that option.
Virgin time.

Ha! Yeah, I've heard that up close and personal irl. It's something to behold.
Goat humping bad guys are more afraid of Warthogs than they are bombs.
We used to refer to them as The Cross of Death because, as the story goes, bad guys, even if they were Islamists, would start crossing themselves whenever they heard the A-10s coming in.
