Fairchild Republic A-10C Thunderbolt II
Heavily Armed Strike Jet


An upgraded version of the iconic A-10 Warthog, possessing an extended arsenal of ordnance that it can carry into battle; notably it's ability to now carry Joint Direct Attack Munitions, which the A model could not. Made possible by avionics and general system upgrades.

The standard USAF strike jet, lugging heavy weaponry to hit all forms of ground targets. It also possesses an armored fuselage, especially around the cockpit, and redundant flight control systems; guaranteeing excellent survivability, with an equally effective level of firepower in return.
