One of the most iconic airplanes in the U.S. Air Force’s flying inventory is the A-10 Thunderbolt, also affectionately known as the “Warthog.” Designed to mow down rows of invading Soviet tanks during an anticipated World War III, the A-10 has served in most of America’s post–Cold War conflicts, from the Balkans to Afghanistan. A new Pentagon contract to manufacture new wingsets promises to keep a minimum of 280 aircraft flying into the foreseeable future, even as questions persist whether the A-10 can survive over modern battlefields.

In wartime the A-10 was meant to operate alongside U.S. Army Apache attack helicopters in a so-called Joint Air Attack Team (JAAT) to advancing Soviet armor. JAAT doctrine called for Apaches to suppress enemy air defenses, identifying and threats to the A-10. A-10s would then swoop down at a thirty-degree angle, hosing down Soviet forces with their Gatling guns. In hindsight, this would not often have worked, as Soviet forces would have advanced too quickly for the interservice teamwork to stop the enemy in time.

No contest. The A10 is by far the most superior, fixed wing air to ground anti equipment and anti armor engagement support system ever. If maintained and upgraded for sustainable modern capabilities, the A10 platform could have an indefinite service life. For atmospheric propulsion of course. It’s a lower airspace vehicle that’s a given. So that’s my $ .02 Lean, mean and sexy machine!
