A-10 Thunderbolt II

AG7 Drop all weapons
The A-10 is the only type of aircraft in the U.S. Air Force active duty to provide intensive support missions to ground forces, including attacking enemy tanks, armed vehicles, and important ground targets
A-10 attack aircraft by the United States Fairchild Company (Fairchild Republic) developed, although A set of modern high-tech F-16, AH-64 and other advanced aircraft seized many of the A-10 combat opportunities, but in NATO large-scale air strikes against the Southern Alliance operations, as well as the recent Iraq War, But it proved that the A-10's unique position cannot be shaken - neither the F-15 and F-16, which can carry out precision strikes, nor the gunship, which can seize A tree's height advantage, can effectively deal with ground forces using terrain cover, or even be put into use
Unlike some seemingly advanced combat aircraft, the A-10, with its good platform characteristics, has proved its value during its service. In the public opinion that the attack aircraft has entered the end of the road, the A-10 attack aircraft came over strongly. The A-10 is neither fast nor advanced, and even clumsy. When the multi-purpose fighter is popular, its role is not affected at all, but more and more excellent, once again proving that "not the most advanced, as long as the most suitable" weapon platform thought is the guiding principle that must be implemented in the design of weapons and equipment.
When A new generation of precision-guided weapons is commonly used by fighter jets to implement precision strikes, precision-guided weapons not only do not end the "backward" attack aircraft such as the A-10 after being combined with the carrier aircraft as is widely expected, but will become another effective weapon of the A-10, making it more powerful. The expensive AH-64D gunship helicopter in the asymmetric operations in Iraq, not only can not replace the A-10, but become the target of anti-American forces, can not but cause people to think deeply. When the F-22 and F-35 are in service or will soon be in service, when network-centric warfare has become A reality, and when the costly F-14 fighter is retired early from the stage of history, the A-10 will still be fully dressed and fighting for things. The design idea behind its indomitable vitality provides us with the design experience and principle of a new generation of attack aircraft.
