31.3k agnanSatrio  5.8 years ago

The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II is a single-seat, twin turbofan engine, straight wing jet aircraft developed by Fairchild-Republic for the United States Air Force (USAF).

Commonly referred to by the nicknames "Warthog" or "Hog", although the A-10's official name comes from the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, a World War II fighter-bomber effective at attacking ground targets.[5] The A-10 was designed for close air support (CAS) of friendly ground troops, attacking armored vehicles and tanks, and providing quick-action support against enemy ground forces.

It entered service in 1976 and is the only production-built aircraft that has served in the USAF that was designed solely for CAS. Its secondary mission is to provide forward air controller – airborne (FAC-A) support, by directing other aircraft in attacks on ground targets. Aircraft used primarily in this role are designated OA-10.

Features;
-Crap Ton Of Weapons (Mostly Air-To-Ground)
-BRRRRRRRRRrrrrrT all Day with Tweaked Miniguns stuck together (Mind your Ears when in Cockpit View ^~^)
-The Body is shortened on Purpose Due To Stability
-Have fun

    This plane is terrible, you focused on style more than functionality

    It is a little hard to control though, but a really cool build

    I like this a lot but the cockpit looks a little flattened to me. It's just too skinny comparative to its length. However, no amount of nitpicking can hide how much I love this plane, you've integrated the two engines smoothly into the body of the plane and the replication of the armaments are on point.
